I have to agree with Sinfix on this one. I have never had the police be useful to me. I've been a business owner, home owner, etc. Not one time can I say that I have actually have had them improve a situation. I have had them harass me illegally several times, and have been able to get a couple of officers fired for their actions when they went over the line. I'm no saint, but there is no reason that myself or any other law-abiding citizen should be treated poorly, yet watch officers ignore evidence when it does not financially benefit the government.
