I read it as something completely different. In a homogeneous culture, where everyone buys into the public safety, police are only needed to remind the public don't be a jackass and speed next to a school, or otherwise check in on the elderly. It's only in a melting pot of drugs gangs rape and gun violence that police need to be soldiers.
Yeah, I agree. Their police wasn't trained for combat against violence. But they should have been doing this for at least a couple of years. Even if it's just one special unit. Escalating violence requires more prepared police, not hugs and love.
Only if your police is a complete joke, like british police.
