    Interesting thing about cops is wildly their competence ranges from place to place, even with combat skills. I've seen some of the most incompetent cops in states like Louisiana that only had their gun going for them and would likely easily lose in an urban warfare situation. Then you get the NYPD that are big and pumped with enough money to be the standing military of a small power.

      Is this that "Herbivore vs. Carnivore" toxic masculinity shit police have amongst each other?

        I have no idea, but it has more to do with the economic situation across each state. They're poorly trained in deep southern states and get less funds than other states like New York or California, ironically enough with how much cops hate those states.

        Feds will crack down on any of this shit, it’s only possible in the event of breakdown of federal power in a region. Also be careful talking like this online, even vaguely

          Yeah good point. Even high level analysis of the situation is enough to get someone pre-crimed. Local police will always be pushovers, but in the end, they aren't meant to be the last line of defense, just a stopgap for gendarmerie/national guard involvement and slaughter.
