no, they want to feel tough.
they would fold in any scenario where the numbers and odds were actually even, let alone against them.
look how they whine at being in a population where a growing segment simply doesn't respect them.
if most of us were truly hostile to them or threatening, they couldn't move around in teams smaller than 4-6 and they certainly could not get out of their vehicles without support. like a drone watching from above and prepared to make something bang. the entire calculus of "patrol" would change drastically.
no more napping in a car or posting up in a parking lot and playing on the phone. no more walking into a restaurant or getting takeout, unless it's in some kind of Green Zone hardened complex. they would have to radio in everybody who was on a cellphone looking in their direction. they would have to live in a barracks and/or wear a balaclava literally everywhere, in the heat of summer. the job would become taking turns sitting at sluggish checkpoints with jersey barriers and going out to investigate junk on the side of the road that might explode and take a few of appendages.
they have no idea what kind of shitshow it means to actually police a hostile population with no obvious language or cultural barrier.
