To be a bit more fair, these are the expectations about US police, not in general. And even if you argue this is right (I disagree), at least make sure the expectations are intuitive. Many people call 911 in the "wrong" situations, unaware that they've done something stupid, when they called 911 to ask for help.
And by that I mean if "don't call police on someone unless you're willing to send them to jail" is the accepted and defendable function of police in the US, you should be able to have a nationwide public information campaign with that exact line on it. Because it seems not everyone got the memo.
