YES, I have a police officer with me in every situation I can reasonably be assaulted:
+ My job is just over the road from the main police office
+ There are three police officers living in the same road I do
+ The police office in my hometown is one minute by foot away from my home
+ There are always police officers (plain cloth and uniformed) around in the mall(s) I use to shop
+ My shooting club is the local Polizeisportverein (Police sport club)
So for all practical purposes I DO have police protection 24/7
Fiar enough. You have to admit that that isn't a normal situation, though.
Germany as a whole comes out with a violent crime rate of 0.86 murders per hundred thousand people per year. Which is very good, but hardly zero.
