I don’t blame them. We’ve spent decades pumping the police into a paramilitary force that when reality meets expectations it’s just another human (often I believe) trying to make the best of their situation. Personally I distrust most police and I’m suspicious of them, but removing funding is a bad idea in my book, and I’m sad to see police leaving the profession. When it comes right down to it, many of us need the police more than they need us. We think we’re a bunch of badd asses that can defend the homestead if we had to, but we still call 911. When the police don’t show up, we get horrible outcomes, and it’s worse for everyone.
