President Andrew Jackson famously shrugged off the US Supreme Court decision in Worcester v. Georgia by (probably not) saying "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it!". Like you said, "Laws are worth zero if the law enforcers ignore them with impunity". This is why we need a system to police the police. At some point, we as a society need to commit to forcing those who swear to uphold the laws to also live by them.
