yeah I feel this way about a lot of things. I think on some level there does need to be people protecting public safety, stopping people from murdering each other (which they very much occasionally do) etc. Do the cops actually do that, do it well, and restrict people’s freedoms only in the minimal and exact ways they need to to do that? …eeeeeehhhh.
I think it’s our responsibility as voters and members of the community to have police forces that are respected, well paid and also who have allegiance to the people at large.

Getting there, that’s the real challenge.
