Protect and serve my left nut.
I was just having this discussion with my wife. According to the law, the police have no obligation to protect you or anyone else. Based on Deshaney and Gonzales, if you get murdered because someone violated a protection order you had against them and the cops refused to arrest them, they still aren't liable. We saw this pop up in Parkland, as well.
And don't get me wrong with this. Cops are human and fallible. We all are. I just have an issue with a system that puts so much faith in them without accountability.
