Does a lawyer do law outside of billable hours? Some do pro-bono. But not the majority. Does a doctor practice medicine outside of his hours? Again, some work at free clinics, but generally no. Do veterinarians like it when you ask them to

Yeah but that was in an active warzone where there was little to no retribution for poor behavior. If you have to live next door to the people you police, you're probably going to behave a bit better.
