    That’s not the point. The point is that you can’t have a police force that’s weaker than the criminals.

      yes you can. have a special unit for those cases. the goons on the streets don’t need firearms.

      Cops don’t need the option to murder me when giving me a speeding ticket.

        Police in my country wear guns.

        They never use them because criminals don’t shoot at cops.

        You maybe get 1 crazy person per year that deserves to have a weapon drawn at them.

        Your argument implies the inhumane and corrupt American police forces, which are an exception.
