Almost every state has something in their State Law that says public safety officials have no specific obligation to protect anyone. They have a general obligation, but you can't sue the police for failure to protect you in a specific incident.

That's what the 2A is for.

Yes. It’s called the public duty doctrine. There is a special relationship exception, but it is narrow.
