The two are not inconsistent at all. Law enforcement officers (and ALL public employees for that matter) do perform a SERVICE TO THE PUBLIC, that only government can supply.

This does not, in ANY way, imply that they are actually 'servants' in the "master-servant" role that it might imply. Public servants are not "servile."
