When will people realise that businesses don't give a fuck about them. We go through this every year with Pride month and people still fall for shit like this.
Also, when people do something even for a selfish motive, they still do the thing. If someone saves a drowning cat just because they want to be praised, the cat is saved too.

I'll be sure to send them the bill next time I'm burgled, and I'll call them next time some cashier is beat to death for 50 bucks.

People forget that police officers are paid for their job. They are not doing you a service, it is their job. If they refuse to do it, then suspension or dismissal is the way to go. Now, why I'm saying this: Too many people say they won't protect us if we cut funding etc... That for me is bullshit. Imagine if every job in the world does that?
My solution is: Treat them like kids. Remove all their guns, tasers etc... and tell them if they can be respected without those, you will get your toys back.
That's my opinion.
If you don't pay people, or give them the resources needed to respond to dangerous and unpredictable situations, then there won't be any left to do the job.
What do you expect to happen? And people accuse *me* of wanting to go back to the wild west. Ffs.
You're actually shitting on the good men and women you expect to go into harm's way on good and innocent people's behalf. The people who keep the roads safe, who track down the fuckers who steal kids away for evil purposes, and who stop men from beating their wife.
What do you think law enforcement is? What do you think cops do? Where do you think they come from? They don't materialize outta thin air with an itchy trigger finger.

I can respond to this. It's a waste of time. I've heard these arguments over and over. Good cops vs bad cops. Lets have a solution with no collateral damage. Nevermind. Just 3 things, you know cops get recruited right? Cutting funding doesn't mean not paying them and finally the US is not a war zone, the police (nypd, lapd etc...) are not the military.
Wait unless I misunderstood the last point in the first comment it's super risky, I don't know how your criminals work but here, if you disarm police officers and let people know, you're basically setting them to be attacked without ways to protect themselves.
Unless you suggest doing this during their training? As in, their colleagues will get a gun but not them until they prove that they can do without relying on weapons?

I apologise but there's something that is a bit unclear to me. Aren't officers those who patrol the streets, do traffic stops and investigate disturbances? Aren't they the ones that are doing the killings? I did say officers in my previous comments. I didn't say disarm support units (swat team or any other intervention corp), detectives or any investigation body. Do they not call for back-up? Btw, @famousone it is an opinion, you can disagree and if I struck a nerve I apologise. Officers keeping road safe? Well, I think it isn't safe if innocent lives are being lost at the same hands of the people who are supposed to protect them. Investigating child abduction, rape or murder, I didn't know that those same patrol officers were also responsible for those type of investigations.
If someone is unwilling to do their job, you usually caution them or dismiss them. If their willingness depends on whether they have a lethal weapon, that job is not for them.
