Local conservative radio program, The Morning Drive, on KCRS Odessa/Midland had a caller this AM defending cop inaction in the current revolt by saying LEO is not charged with protecting the populace.
I dont care to finance ticket writers. What do you guys think, please?

Its an LEOs job to protect the weak,but if you willfully enter a violent situation then you are on your own.

The Police are Not required to protect you.
In the 1989 landmark case of DeShaney v. Winnebago County Department of Social Services, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the failure by government workers to protect someone,even 4-year-old Joshua DeShaney, from physical violence or harm from another person did not breach any substantive constitutional duty.
Castle Rock v. Gonzales upheld that decision.

The actions of the police in your area are a reflection of the politicians your friends and neighbors and yourself put into power.
If that bothers you, act accordingly.

The only time an individual cop will be held accountable for criminal activity or dereliction of duty will be when it suits the purposes of his/her politician puppeteers to do so. As long as they toe the line and act as a buffer between the corrupt office holders and the public, they can get away with a lot of trampling on individual rights and personal malfeasance. The higher up the chain of police command they go, the closer their lips conform to the ass crack of the next guy on the totem pole. Police chiefs, "public safety commissioners" and other top brass might as well have their lips stuck to the politicos' asses with super glue! Jerry

A better slogan might be "To deter and protect".
The biggest problem our country has is not systemic racism, it's systemic stupidity.

To “deter and investigate” would be better.

If that bothers you, act accordingly. Exactly... and hint... a police force powerful enough to protect you is powerful enough to crush you as well. No if we’re talking about rounding people up for violations that’s law enforcement which is their job. I prefer dangerous freedom to safe totalitarianism.

If that bothers you, act accordingly. Here we have 1 Officer on life support after being shot by a protester, an armed attacker was killed by the police at the Federal building. The shooter of the LE is in custody and 338 protesters have been arrested and jailed. No catch and release here. Gas and pepperballs have been utilized since the onset of demo on Friday. As an interesting aside our Duck o' death pontificated over the weekend that his "sources" in LV had informed him that there was no action in my town and that being prepared was silly. He becomes exponentially more ridiculous w/ every post. Support your local police and vote for strength. The leader of our LE is an elected Sheriff. mike r

sounds the duck has some great intel on the LV situation . Maybe your Sheriff can contact him to help out with your situation. Almost as useful as his covid intel On a positive note 700H will be whacking off on his laptop screen in his dress and panties now that he saw cops were shot by the protestors.

They're not obligated to protect you but they are supposed to enforce our laws. I don't think police cars have "Protect and Serve" on them anymore.
