      I’m curious what makes you say that? Investigation is a huge part of the process of policing.

        Right but it’s not the only part. You’re making it seem like I want more people on the streets with the power to arrest people for whatever.

          Because you intrinsically are. It would require more people with investigatory and enforcement powers to staff this hypothetical agency. Not smalltown pigfuckers, sure, but what you’re describing is structurally little different from the FBI or ICE. A massive new law enforcement agency like that will need people to do that and those people are called cops.
