When the government runs a monopoly on a service it's always shitty and there's no recourse for their fucked up actions. You can't take the government to court! Well you could but... good luck. If the police force were a private company however... you could sue their ass into next Sunday if they murdered your pets. As is, cops don't have to worry about the ramifications.
