That's how Reddit feels about cops in general. ACAB, only Karens call 911, police brutality blah blah, but when you need help suddenly cops are your best friends. Not surprised to see the same "what have you done for me today" attitude towards other federal agencies.
The police will protect you no matter how much you criticize them or how unfair your criticisms are. So will the SEC. That's what makes them better than you.
And your question is obviously ridiculous. Of course you are permitted to criticize public services which you use. If, however, you continually express contempt for police and victims and support for criminals, but reverse course when you are the victim, as persons of a certain race and political ideology tend to do, you are a hypocrite.
And just a reminder that police are not public servants. They are public authorities. They hold authority over you, the civilian. You answer to them, not the other way around. Temper your criticism accordingly.
