“Sed quis custodiet ipsos custodes? Cauta est et ab illis incipit uxor.” ― Decimus Junius JuvenalisFrom Juvenal's Satire VI, 347–8.
In 1986-7 there appeared Watchmen, a twelve issue comic book series in Britain, by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons. It was an alternate history, and criticism of Reaganism. In 2009 a movie version was released.
In the story there is a police strike, and the costumed heroes take their place. This graffito is repeated. It is still a good political question.
