Add no obligation to verify info to no obligation to serve and protect.
Cops could be ordered to enforce any policy and that policy doesn't actually have to be legal- allowing damage to be done before courts resolve it. They can also simply lie about tips and threats.
Someday cops will act very boldly against rulings across the fed/state line, and I'm not just talking about hunting pot plants. At that point we will just have to place our trust in local politicians not to abuse it to ensure our compliance to this or that :) :) :)
The Freedom Convoy in Ottawa was a great example that there's really no checks and balances on cops in real time.
After the cops beat up and cleared out the truckers for two days, they continued to be uncontrolled and drunk with power in patrolling downtown Ottawa far from the actual battle site in front of Parliament Hill.
They stopped people walking down the street going to buy coffee and threatened them with arrest. They slapped phones out of people's hands when being recorded. They threatened to arrest independent journalists. They set up dozens of roadblocks in the downtown core and told people whether they could enter or not despite having no authority to do so under the Emergencies Act.
They told people to check immediately out of their hotels and leave the area. They threatened to break down doors and windows to access businesses without a warrant. They arrested random people in the streets for simply being in their unlawful, make believe "red zone".
And what came of it, despite Ottawa Police having to tweet out asking people to stop jamming 911 lines with complaints and accounts of firsthand police abuse and misconduct?
Jack shit.
The "independent" SIU committee came publicly out and closed the file on the Mohawk woman who iconically was trampled by the Toronto police horses. Because they said by technicality, there was a loophole that they had no legal obligation to investigate further because the Mohawk women had no broken bones.

Also, remember, you're paying to defend the cops from your own accusations of wrongdoing.
Taxation is theft, and creates very unhealthy systems due to the surrounding coercion. They didn't have to earn that money they stole from you, so they're under no incentive to spend it sensibly or responsibly.
There's probably some bullshit 'credible threat" defense
Police are under no obligation to protect you...unless they get to raid your house for known bullshit reasons, in which case it's their holy duty to "protect" you.
I mean, it's not bullshit. These people want the cops to stop responding to threats so that they can successfully carry out a real attack. And it's difficult to track these people down without the help of the FBI who uses all sorts of extrajudicial means to track people down, and the FBI supports this kind of behavior.

Great example, thank you. Gives me the ex redditor instinct to say I wish I could upvote you more than once.

This is what will happen daily when "red flag laws" are implemented.
Just like snitches in CCP, USSR, and Nazi Germany, any advice is actionable and rewarded.
