Because it is not the responsibility of the police to protect you [1], [2]. Their primary job is to protect the wealth and power of certain classes by delivering punitive measures for all sorts of things (like morality crimes [3]) to keep the lower classes in line. Those upper classes want LEO to have every available tool in their power, regardless of legality. Even worse, LEO is now being infiltrated by militant partisans, so there is even more motivation for them to ignore laws. [4]
