    No, they’ll just stop responding. Or arrest you for wasting policeresources.

    The police are allowed discretion. They can decide whether they want to enforce laws or not. This is why they for instance can let you off with a warning instead of writing you a ticket for speeding. Or allow a gunman to murder 19 children in an elementary school while they stand outside.

      The police serve and protect capital. Nothing and no one else. Sometimes they’ll act in accordance with the needs of the lower classes, but only when doing so keeps the lower classes from toppling the whole system. And sometimes they don’t even do that, preferring to quash an uprising to avoiding one

          Then maybe we should get rid of the police since they’re so undisciplined. Find a new group of people who won’t be so fucking hostile
