This sounds political. This De-Evolution theory in the face of progressive achievements in fostering more lawlessness, more inflation, more poverty, more international intrigues, more killin', more stealin'.
Ya, this belongs in the Political Forum.

Devo is an American rock band from Akron, Ohio, formed in 1973. Their classic lineup consisted of two sets of brothers, the Mothersbaughs and the Casales, along with Alan Myers. The band had a No. 14 Billboard chart hit in 1980 with the single "Whip It", the song that gave the band mainstream popularity.

Bought the Freedom of Choice 8track tape from a store in Kansas on a National Lampoon-like vacation to Disneyland.

Played that thing over and over. Drove my little sister nuts. Good times.

Doesn’t matter even if the cops were on board, take some time to read up on Joe Lozito, a guy that ended up taking on a crazed guy on a killing spree while every cop in the city was looking for him and 2 on the train hid behind the conductors door while watching Joe get stabbed and came as close to death as possible. Joe had no idea was he was walking into on the train that day, a guy commuting into the city from Philly and didn’t know the backstory. While they watched him almost die subduing the killer then only came out after the fact, then played the role of heroes to the press, jury, public etc. Joe eventually sued and was told the cops had no special duty to protect him.

Lozito v. New York City
In the spring of 2012, Joseph Lozito, who was brutally stabbed and "grievously wounded, deeply slashed around the head and neck", sued police for negligence in failing to render assistance to him as he was being attacked by Gelman. Lozito told reporters that he decided to file the lawsuit after allegedly learning from "a grand-jury member" that NYPD officer Terrance Howell testified that he hid from Gelman before and while Lozito was being attacked because Howell thought Gelman had a gun. In response to the suit, attorneys for the City of New York argued that police had no duty to protect Lozito or any other person from Gelman.

On July 25, 2013, Judge Margaret Chan dismissed Lozito's suit, stating that while Lozito's account of the attack rang true and appeared "highly credible", Chan agreed that police had "no special duty" to protect Lozito.

Lozito later went on to give an account of the aftermath in an article published by Cracked.com in October 2013, and again in October 2017 when he narrated a video, offering his perspective of the event and as a warning to others involved in similar situations.

But people don't need guns and stuff... we should limit the 2nd amendment and high capacity magazines and stuff... let the cops handle it, right?

How are the police (all law enforcement, for that matter) excused from the duty to protect the public? Isn't that what they are paid to do? Isn't that their job?
