A civilization in which the police have an easy job is either heaven or hell. I think their job ought to be very difficult, and yes, they should therefore be paid much more.

A cop should have a reason, and be willing to give it, whenever they give an order to a civilian in a non-emergency situation. In an emergency situation, they should be willing and able to justify all actions taken, once the emergency is over. They should apply the law equally to assholes and saints. These are fundamental requirements in a free society, and are only pipe dreams if you let them be.
