yet another ape making the same suggestion for the 450th time. the reason police get treated differently is because they're massively outnumbered and so a thumb has to be applied to the scale. if cops could be pked because they annoyed someone (which is a natural result of 99% of the things they do, because youre all criminals), the NYPD would be depopulated within a week and the server would dry up shortly thereafter. suggesting that staff are just "not taking it seriously" is shortsighted.
shooting cops directly outside of your obvious criminal front business because their presence upsets you is also retarded if you apply any thought at all. in real life this would bring your entire business down within a couple of days, if not sooner. and again, its the police's job to frustrate criminals.
as for people rejoining PD after being removed/killed, unironically not a thing i can think has happened lately. matteo smith tried it and got dumped instantly, monaclu managed to "return" (two ranks lower even now) after four months of work, and i came back slowly over eight months.
it might seem like cops are too powerful or excessive because, in your own mind, youre not "that much" of a criminal, basically a normal citizen, so them annoying you is undeserved. take one look at your character and remember all the meth you make and people youve shot and then actually think, "why might the police be an annoyance to me"
shocking lack of critical thought from a former up-and-coming cop/lawyer. disappointing
