I'm not big on guns for the police either, but reality says that's a must. On the other hand, the police are now on hair-trigger alert, because they never know when a gun will pop out and become a risk. That they tend to fear 'others' is a downside of human nature, and the cause of so many reflexive shootings of blacks and Latinos. I don't excuse it, but adding more guns to the mix makes only makes things worse.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
