That's how it is in German cities which have ultra-liberal mayors- and constituencies. I've noticed that the police are most effective in conservative precints. In fact, it's quite a discrepancy as how one police force behaves, compared to another force elsewhere in the country. Particularly, where I reside, the police have been victims of bad publicity from small ultra-left press agents. You know, those who hand out pamphlets and print short newspapers. Case in point, A person of sub-Saharan origin was approached by a policeman for suspicion of dealing drugs. A passer-by happened to have a camera available. The candid photo made its way to the printing press along with the caption titled, "Discrimination". I'm sure that if the police have happened to approach a native German, nobody would have thought it unusual enough to pull out the camera. So, I don't blame the police for simply checking in, driving around, all day long and checking out until retirement. If the residents hate authority, why should the police lift a finger?
However, there is an advantage to that, if you happen to have a grudge against somebody and decide to settle it out of court. In that case, lazy policemen are less likely to take an investigation as seriously. I don't necessarily mean murder. But say, you're getting back at an old boss who used to yell at you as if you were a dog, as well as cleaning a carbouretor using compressed air. But, instead of blasting the air through the carbouretor through the open door, he blasts the fumes porvocatively into the garage as a gesture of great disrespect. Now, if you get out the wrist rocket and decide to silently ventilate all new cars with the lead pellets of which you casted from melted down wheel weights or decide to wear a stocking over your head and stalk the boss to whoop him a little and then pour a bucket of gasoline over his head, you could do either in a constituency where the police have grievances and are most likely to come out even with your score.
I myself, have accumulated quite a list of debt to collect on, since, like Canada and western Europe, one could get into big trouble for stepping outside with someone to duke it out. In other words, the methods we used to use in Michigan to immediately settle a dispute, is frowned upon (to put it lightly) in disarmed countries. One has to settle matters in a clandestine manner, instead, which is not near as satisfying. In that list, however, there are a couple members of the visible minority. If they get equal treatment as others on the list, the police are more than likely to investigate such an incident meticulously, on the grounds that a possible "Hate Crime" could have been commited (Even though, the local police have no particular sympathy for that group, they are obligated to carry out their duty). Such suspicion starts simply by spitting in one's face. And, our DA here, seems inclined to press the police department in the direction of thoroughly investigating such alleged crimes. Whether such lone wolf score settling is a "Hate Crime" or not, such will be treated as one which actually puts privilege on solving matters concerning persons of obvious distinction over equal matters concerning others. This discrepancy could lead to the confiscation of the computer hard drive and a search warrant. If no conviction can be applied, basic information will be handed over to trhe communal registry. In other words, if a similar incident were to take place, elsewhere in town, the information kept over one's alleged act can be used as reference. Thus, placing that unconvicted person into automatic suspicion

... I remember gun fights with police, omg, they shoot old people in the middle of the street for no reason, they have to empty their weapon to hit the target, they are ridicoulous... I am most likely to get the bullet than the bad guy, that's as stupid as police here is.
Darwinian question, Sir:
Which appeared first? The chicken or the egg?
Which was established first? The Montreal Police or the Police Academy?
