wow...
Ok. If tomorrow cops in the USA were banned from carrying guns, I would guess every cop in any city over 10,000 would quit by noon. there would be some in the smaller cities that would probably try and stay on, thinking they might be able to handle their small town without them but I doubt it. And then, when the first cop gets killed responding to a disturbance, the rest of the force would leave, those that didn't would carry concealed guns. We tend to live in reality, and the reality is, there are bad people here. Thugs care little about the average citizens life and only hesitate shooting cops because of the chance they will get shot in return. I can't speak for the other countries, never lived there, never policed there. But here, there are bad people who carry weapons. Doing this job without a gun would be suicide.
Clearly if only the cops were unarmed in America as it is
With guns being freely & legally available to all public & scum bags
It would be totally stupid & suicidal for cops.
Yet also the Reality is there are just as many violent & aggressive people in
Many other countries some with guns most with a weapon of some sort
& they have to be dealt with.
Yes sometimes they are shot dead, generally as a last resort.
Not A First Resort.
It appears the problem is cops & American society are stuck to
The bosom of the gun & cannot be weaned off.
You are playing dumb, clearly your are intelligent enough to know
Police & people in other dangerous jobs deal every day with situations
Almost identical to those that cops deal with in America without
Guns & shooting being the 1st option.
That is also Reality.
For many of us.
There is More than just your type of Reality.
