Our founding fathers never intended for us to depend on police officers. That's one reason they had the 2nd amendment. Back in the day police were rarely necessary except in large crowded cities.
The reason for the 2nd was the British as there were no Police confiscating firearms in the 1770's. And it was the British the were during the crowd control. Just look up the Boston Massacre ;-/
