Yeh, that's right, when something doesn't happen (like your house doesn't have a breakin), what do you know about the value of that? So every homeowner should be for disbanding the police if his NEIGHBOR has had a breakin but he hasn't. Makes complete sense, right? But to go to the opposite extreme and say the police have "failed" when your house is still safe is, excuse me, a scream. People who say that with a straight face are the comedians.
