my father was a policeman in d.c. for 20 years. not sure he could have handled it much longer, TONS of stress working the streets up there. some places, yeah, they could do a lot more. but the larger cities, those guys, cops and firemen, go thru hell. overworked, definitely underpaid--most of them can't afford to live in the city they work in. hell, a city near here--the city bus drivers make more than the police.
