This argument is based on the false premise that the state will 'force' the labor of a police officer (or others) to protect your rights. It does not. See Lozito vs. NYC - an individual was attacked by a drug addict with a knife. In front of 2 cops. They did nothing until the victim subdued the attacker. They then did not try to render aid to the victim. When Lozito sued, the judge dismissed saying the police have no duty to protect anyone. https://youtu.be/jAfUI_hETy0 https://youtu.be/jAfUI_hETy0 Many marginalized communities realize the state is not there to help or serve them. If your experience is different - it is most likely that it is more of a happy coincidence that the state's interests and your personal interests are temporarily in alignment. There is no guarantees that this will continue for any length of time.
