No, what it really means is:

Go ahead and let them murder you, it makes our paperwork much easier.

Thats true. One thing is certain: Courts has established that police has no constitutional obligation to protect the public. In fact, not too long ago, a Judge in Cleveland once said: "people, arm up!".

Cities like Toledo and Cleveland are crime-infested and the police and other law enforcement agencies are short handed. Thus, leaving people only to defend themselves, their family and others around them. Because they know this simple equation: police layoff = higher crime rate.

As President Lincoln once said to a visitor during a White House tour: You may fool everyone some of the time or some people all the time, but you cannot fool everyone all the time.
