BTW, I dont think the police are there to protect you - they are generally there to file paperwork and look into things (if youre lucky) after the fact. If you find an officer that actually takes the to Protect and Serve motto to heart, then you have found the exception...

Safety versus Scurity.
Safety is about protecting you.
Security is about trying to find your killer.
Well, then they should be less antagonistic about us protecting ourselves.
