Sounds nice and lovely, but good luck with that
Most professions in life don’t have the possibility of:
You being randomly ambushed and killed with almost no way to see it coming or prevent it
You being verbally abused constantly by the people you serve, every insult imaginable thrown your way
You being randomly assaulted trying to do your job. Just saw a police body cam video of a cooperative drunk woman being arrested for DUI suddenly becoming uncooperative without warning and kneeing the male cop in the balls as hard as she could. How about for other professions, I get to show up at your work, and knee you in the balls as hard as I can, and you can go ahead and finish out your day after that. Oh and not quit either, maybe I’ll do it again tomorrow, and the next day
Having to walk a tight rope constantly to avoid getting in legal trouble doing your job
Having half the county hate you and call you a racist until they need your help, then you can’t come fast enough for them
This means cops can’t keep staffed, which means you get two options:
1. Less cops and long long response times or no response. Crimss like petty theft not investigated ever. Your home break in or car theft will never be solved or even looked at
2.
Having to recruit from outside areas
