Apparently that's been how it works for decades, which explains why cops will show up to break strikes and protect a Starbucks, but will take hours to arrive if you ever need them.
There's a lot of police forces and police-adjacent organisations that will accept donations (FOP and the like), and that obviously affects the priorities when it comes to assigning personnel.
