Cops are how Legoland makes up for it's lack of military protection.

But...who do they need military protection *from*?  *Nobody* seems to have
any military in modern Legoland...Is Town expecting an invasion from other
themes?  Do they fear the Wolfpack will travel through time to loot
McDonald's?  Are they watching the skies in case the UFOs invade?

For that matter, what sort of crimes occur in LEGOland?  From the sets,
I'd have to guess that they're mostly traffic violations.  (This is
probably because many towns have no street signs or street lights.)
There does seem to be the occasional bank robbery, although how it's
accomplished is unknown since guns seem to have fallen into disuse
sometime near the end of the previous century.  Very threatening notes
perhaps?
