Police don't prevent crime, they don't even solve crime, and they don't protect people. The only thing they do with any competence is traffic control. We don't need them.

Now thinking of it.

-If a crime happens, police are under no obligation to stop it.

-Once the crime happened, the solving if the crime falls under the jurisdiction of non-police (forensics, detectives, etc)

That means the only thing they do is abuse people on demand of those in power.

They do? If that was the case, wouldn't they actually do something with the rampant amount of bikes without mufflers?
