which is why we still have lots of each of those throughout the entire country, with cops? sure, they stop a subset of each of them, but each still happen every single day, and all of these things do and can happen in circumstances where cops aren't able to do things.

cops can't prevent a burglary, unless they happen to be there right when it happens.
most rapes happen with people who the victim knows in a private location, not in the middle of the street where a cop can stop them.
cops can't generally prevent a murder unless it was happening in public and taking enough time for them to save the person's life.

cops don't stop any of these things from happening, and people do them even with the threat of punishment, with cops on the street, etc. cops being around doesn't prevent people from actually committing these crimes.
"Sure cops stop a subset but whatever cops don't stop any of it"
