Why do they have "Protect and Serve" on their cars? Shades of the good ole 1950's when there were good cops on the beat and good citizens working together?

Because they are protecting and serving *the government* and society as a whole. That's the idea, anyway.

Seriously, though - anyone who's ever thought that the police could be more than backup/clean-up squad/reaction force is sadly delusional. The very nature of their job means that they can't be everywhere.

They protect the tax funding that pays their wages, and serve some more donuts.
