They are a necessary force to maintain civilization, but they are not our friends. They do what they must to do their jobs (the jobs we as a society ask them to do), no matter how dishonest, disruptive, or violent their actions are required to be. They are no more our friends than the waitress who flirts with us for tips. It's not her job to take our order and bring us our food, it's her job to be personal and bring in repeat business. A police officers job is not to uphold the law or preserve civility or ensure our safety, it is to investigate people. Not criminals , people, everyone and anyone. They are information gatherers primarily.
