LEOs exist as an enforcement arm of the state, one which universaly will always hold power over others, which can attract the wrong type of individuals to the profession. Furthermore, their interests are not your intrests.

Reform will not change that, cops and corruption are a trope as old as they've existed for.

Alternatively, you are armed and advocating for your own interests, its not that you will use the tool at your disposal, but a matter of having it.
