They may not have the obligation to enforce a restraining order, but I imagine >99% of the time they do, and they have for me.

Wasn't an open warrant for violating a restraining order what led to the Jacob Blake alteraction?

Exactly right. A few weeks ago there was a shooting in my neighborhood. I heard the gunshots but before I could find my phone to dial 911 the much maligned Seattle PD were already here. They may not have been obliged to come, but they did come, and fast.

My anecdotal experiences have been that police haven't done anything to help or protect me every time I have asked for help. Your anecdotal experience seems to be different. Do you have any data to support your 99% claim?
