Instant one at that. There are like millions of people working forces on the ground, and even a slight chance of having ‘the bad one’ and being put to death over a little conflict would bring a regretful amount of lives lost, like a little town of dead people. Cops who don’t usually have a job more dangerous than a speeding ticket shouldn’t have guns, there are SWAT, FBI, other units to handle big crimes, who are specifically trained for that, and cops should endure as much checks as other laborers do when using dangerous tools. Most big industrial toys I enjoyed had two buttons so I would need to place my two hands in safe spaces to press them before they start, because their predecessors ate that much limbs and whole people it became a problem. Why having a gun, a tool made to right-click-delete people, is so unregulated? Why cops are even trusted to have one, or even a couple? These said symbols of law and order are half a century back in regulating that law and order themselves.
