If police feels confident enough to "express" the need to overthrow basic constitutional rights, you should be worried about how it is managed and what's coming for you. After all, they are the guys with the big sticks who make everyone obey.
Police forces in Europe have been lobbying for this kind of measures so eagerly that it can even turn out to be a national security issue, I fear. What if the police will end up siding with Russian and/or Chinese invaders, or with a some kind of domestic extremist movement, attempting to set up an authoritarian regime.
