No reality.
Back in the 80s there was a beat cop that worked downtown was well know and even made the kc star newspaper. They called him the walkin Injun. He was 6'5" imposing American Indian. That guy worked that beat his whole career. I was a Land Surveyor just starting out. We did a lot of surveys in Downtown KC. Well lots bums came out and panhandled and harrassed folks. One day was a young lady and a bum was drunk wouldnt take no for an answer kept pawing this girl. My boss who was near headed over and was about to put a beatdown on bum. Out of nowhere comes walkin injun. He told my boss to step back he would handle it. Said he will escort him to halfway house and marched him off. A little latter we setup in an alley to establish the boundary line of the ally. And between the alley was Walkin Injun wailing with the blackjack on said bum. He could be herd tellin him to walk his ass back to the tracks in the River Quay and hop the first train on out here. That dude beat feet out there face and head bloody. Boss talked him after and the cop said he can run the guys in and there back out panhandling. The get all hpped up and begin to get violent. Next think you know a girl is beaten and raped in an alley or parking garage. The one thing they do understand is a beating. They will think twice to come back on my beat. We said we understand and went about our business.
Thats reality!
