Yup, and in NY the “protection” argument is a joke. There is a case a few years back where it was determined that the police have no “duty to protect”.
It came about from some guy fighting off an attacker on the NYC subway while a few cops just sat there and watched.
I don’t think it made it to the USSC but it go to the NY appellate I think.
