If the police have lost consent of the governed, then the problem is with the government.

Consent of the governed is not the same as consent of the criminal element.

Weird thing how the US was once a penal colony, isn't it? Defining "the criminal element" is always a relative matter, and varies over time. The very people who coined that phrase were considered criminals by the government whose rule they contested.

Or seems like non-criminals in areas with a lot of police activity disprove their behavior. Which is issue.
