I don't think we can reasonably blame cellphones for the failure of police to protect and serve.

"Protect and serve " is the motto of the Los Angeles police department. A lot of people think it's THE police motto because it's in a ton of movies and TV shows. Most towns either don't have a motto, or have a different one. Fall River's motto is "we'll try".

Well the more you know. I still think it doesn't have to be their motto to be their job.

No argument with that. It's just a common misconception that I try and let people know about when I see it.
