How do we feel about our police "force" now?

Speaking as a perfectly law abiding human being I was a little surprised when someone asked me the question "If you saw a police officer, council enforcement officer or Cso being beaten by a gang of yobs - what would you do?" I had to give this some thought. A few years ago I wouldn't have given it thought at all - I would have answered "Help the officer of course!" but now .... after reading more and more stories like this one I would have to answer, like others have, "I would watch for a while and walk on by". I never thought I would feel this way. The way I've justified this to myself is that the people who do these jobs must be really freaky, there's something missing from their make up - they themselves are inhuman. Why would I help them? I could imagine that if, in helping them, I dropped something from my pocket that landed on the ground, they would pick themselves up and do me for it. This is the consequence of our "law-makers" attempts to turn us all into "criminals". I cant think what their reasons are but they are achieving what they set out to do.
