Is the police force too powerful?

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Lean Yes. My best friends dad is a cop in the neighboring city, and my grandfather was in the NYPD back in the fifties, so I am "pro-police", though the Boynton Police Force has proven itself to be hideously inept; during Hurricane Wilma, a homeless man actually broke into our garage for shelter, and the cops not only refused to take him to a public hurricane shelter, but lectured my dad for not sheltering the strange man. They also angrily lectured my brother for calling the police after a man pulled a gun on him when our dog was attacked by his.
