So I'm confused here. The poster you're responding to here says "this shouldn't work the way that it currently does" and your response is "this currently does work that way"? Like are you saying a change in police response policy is self-evidently impossible? If not, what are you trying to say?

When people propose changing policy to modify how an organization behaves, they generally do not mean by asking them nicely to please do it differently
