I watched the episode and that still pic is a reaction to the reply by the Tory member on the panel which was so unbelievably stupid, I couldn't comprehend it.

I read a really interesting post on Reddit (so take with a pinch of salt of course) that said something like the 13 Colonies didn’t originally have a police force, and one only coalesced from militias when there was a need to protect private property. So the concept of the police force as a public service was never really a thing, and in fact the origin of their police was exclusively to protect wealth and property. EDIT: I should add - property including slaves, “protecting them” meaning suppressing slave uprisings and capturing escapees. Edited 27 April 2024 by Bryn

Many theories on why they are why they are, but certainly the US is a society which varies hugely by state. Atlanta couldn’t be more different to Oregan. Neither have it right imo.
