Ok, we seem to be dancing around each other, and both missing the other persons point. So i re-read what you have said, and here is a new way to compromise and make my same point.
The rich "set" the rules, meaning the rich have power over who actually creates rules. I think that is what you're getting at. However, the Police enforce these rules, and they work for the government. And the rules are the rules regardless of what side you are on at that point, it is illegal to go out in public and start breaking shit and throwing bricks through store windows, both sides play by the same rules once they are made. Its not like the right wing protestors are breaking windows and getting away with it, the right wing protestors are breaking nothing, and thus they are being left alone. The left wing is trashing the cities they protest in, and fighting for more government, so then would you agree that the Police would be serving their own best interests by being on the same side as the people who want to pay them more, and give them bigger pensions? So what im saying is while rich people may create the laws its still the left wing protestors who are serving the police officers' desire for more income. The ruls will be the rules regardless, and im pretty sure there isnt a right wing conspiracy among police officers to try to vilify left wing protestors.
Thus since the laws are already in place, is it more beneficial for a police officer to support the mob who wants them to have higher pay, or the mob who wants them to have lower pay? Why do the officers not try to run this conspiracy on anti-government protestors?
