As an important part of state organs, the police shoulder the important duty of maintaining public order and ensuring the safety of the people's lives and property. However, in real life, many people see the police as a representative of omnipotence and tend to call the police for help when they encounter any problem. In fact, the full responsibility of the police is limited, and they also have many unsolvable problems in the performance of their duties. The following will look at this phenomenon from three aspects: the scope of police duties, public expectations and the actual capacity of the police.
First of all, we need to clarify the scope of the police's responsibilities. The police are mainly responsible for public security management, criminal investigation, traffic management, and entry and exit management. In these areas, the police have strict responsibilities and powers. However, many people have a misunderstanding of the scope of the police's responsibilities and believe that the police are problem-solving***, for example, some people will also choose to call the police when they encounter civil problems such as family disputes and neighborhood conflicts. In such cases, although the police will do their best to assist in mediation, their full responsibility is limited and they are unable to solve the problem at the root cause.
Second, the expectations of the population from the police are too high, sometimes beyond what the police are actually capable of. In real life, some people see the police as saviors and hope that the police will solve all problems. This kind of high expectation puts the police under tremendous pressure. However, police officers are also ordinary people, and their abilities are limited. In the face of some complex social problems, although the police will do their best, it is difficult to meet everyone's expectations. In addition, the police are also required to comply with laws and regulations when dealing with problems, and cannot exercise their powers arbitrarily. This also makes it impossible for them to meet some people's expectations when dealing with certain issues.
Finally, in the course of performing their duties, the police will also encounter some problems that cannot be solved. For example, in some emergencies, the police need to take swift measures to maintain order on the scene and treat the wounded, but their power is also limited. In such cases, the police need the support and assistance of other departments to jointly respond to emergencies. This also shows that the full responsibility of the police is not omnipotent, and they need to work together on all sides in order to better perform their duties.
In short, although the police play an important role in public order and the safety of people's lives and property, their full responsibilities are limited. We can't look at the police as solving problems*** and expect too much from them. When faced with problems, we should be rational, clarify the scope of the police's duties, and seek help reasonably. At the same time, it is also necessary to understand the limitations of the police and give them more support and understanding, so that they can better serve the people in the process of performing their duties. On this basis, the whole society should work together to maintain social stability and create a beautiful and harmonious homeland.
