Exactly this. There's no fixing the system when there is no onus on the police to act like they care. They enter a home that was a victim of swatting and kill everyone? Tough luck, "it's part of the job", "we told them to stand down and they didn't", "we couldn't risk the life of the first responders". There's always a reason as to why police violence is fine. Its almost as if the police isn't really there to protect normal people.

The protection is a side-effect of the enforcement, but enforcement can also be things like terrorizing minorities.
