The police have apparently never had a Constitutional duty to protect anyone.

Frankly, my copy of the Constitution is completly silent on the topic of police protection.

Good point, the framers intended for us to be an armed society. In such a society any police force would be only secondary to the armed citizen in combating crime. Unfortunately it hasn't worked out like that tho.
