More nonsense the police are there for protection, this isn't the 1700's. We have professionals that are best for handling assailants.
You can't sue them for taking too long to stop a home invasion and murder. Police in my area while they won't do much for theft they do respond to 911 calls takes them less then 5-6 minutes. I always want the option to be armed in my own home.

Sadly, you're wrong. It seems counter-intuitive, but SCOTUS has ruled that the police have no obligation to protect you. Warren v The District of Columbia. I recommend you familiarize yourself with this case, since you're currently operating under a very dangerous misconception. Compounding the situation is the fact that many liberal cities have relagated the police to after-the-fact report takers. Pro-active policing is now frowned upon. Liberals have even come up with a phrase with negative connotations for police being pro-active. They're calling them "pretext stops" now.

I live in a small city. Our police are short-handed because they can't afford to pay as much as bigger places.
" We shouldn't need"
I could probably come up with hundreds of things "we shouldn't need" but we have them!
You make no sense, or misunderstand what I'm saying. I don't live in a crappy area of town where I have to worry about someone popping me behind the ear with a 9mm maybe you do?
