It's a bad example, and you'll be hard pressed to find a good one that proves your point. Cops (in the US at least) rarely prevent crime before it happens. Hell, their investigations after the fact rarely even result in convictions. Most of the time a cop is involved with something, it's because another cop asked them to. A very very very small portion of their work hours goes towards actually responding to crimes in progress.

Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
