The police causes more death than the military. And until that changes, we are free to reduce the equipment and revise the training they should get.
There’s no good reason for a plumber to have c4. And there is no good reason for police to have armored vehicles. It’s not a building, it’s just pipes, and it’s not a warzone (before the police arrive), it’s a city.
Oh yeah and we can absolutely expect police handle lethal encounters. It’s a unique job with unique issues and if you can’t handle that, get out. You don’t get to cosplay military just because you feel too weak inside.
