People don’t actually understand what job the police have. It’s not to protect society from the crazies and evil. It’s to protect the crazies and evil dickwads from society. If the police/ authorities wont dole out justice, vigilantism will rise. And a pissed off populace won’t care about speedy trials, equal protection under the law etc etc. motherfuckers will start swinging from ropes in the town square. Verrrryyyy slippery slope IMO

My POV is slightly different from yours, although it's complimentary to your view.
The police exist to protect government, employees and facilities, as well as the political establishment from the general population.
