No, you’re wrong.
Nobody reveres totalitarian control and violence you describe in your post, other than communists, fascists and other half-wits.
What you’re targeting is the normal, reasonable attitude of respect patriotic Americans have for law enforcement.
You might be falling for the communist tactic of attempting to destroy the system of law enforcement in a country hated by communists for its success and objective moral righteousness.
Yes they do. YOU ARE. There has NEVER been a point in human history when the power to police was unabused. If you revere the police you revere totalitarian control and violence.
It’s just that simple.
