    I mean, they do, sometimes, if there is an immediate danger or ongoing crime.

    … And they might just barge into the wrong apartment and shoot your neighbor to death.

    Or shoot you or your dog to death.

    Sometimes they all show up and form a perimeter around an ongoing crime scene and then proceed to let the criminal go around murdering children for an hour, despite massively out numbering and out gunning him, and then spend weeks and months lying about doing exactly that.

    Oh you had a break in and your stuff was stolen?

    Oh you got mugged and the guy ran away?

    Oh your car was stolen?

    I mean… sure, the police will show up and write a report…

    Investigate anything? Recover your stolen stuff?

    Pff, nah.
