    I mean it's all relative. American cops don't unload mags at the same rate as Brazilian cops. I guess that's a win for the good ol USA.

    Fake or a more nuanced take is "a lot of petty laws that disproportionately harm poor people".

    Sometimes it depends on who calls them and from where.

    And they don't always arrest people. Regardless, they aren't making up stuff. There are a lot of arrests because for a wealthy industrialized nation we have a lot of crime.

    We have a big uptick in violence since COVID. Period. Law enforcement didn't cause society's problems regardless of how you feel about them

    Are you suggesting there is only one cause for societies problems?

    All of society bares some responsibility, including law enforcement.
