The response is ‘welcome to having a government?’ Monopoly on force is one of the key points of having a government. When it is run well (or at least not to the point of being irredeemably corrupt), this is a positive. When the government becomes irredeemably corrupt, it is functionally indistinguishable from the criminals.
