In some developed nations, even the beat cops are disarmed and only their equivalent of SWAT response teams are.
Law enforcement are seen as community emmisaries, you can walk up to a British cop in a corner with no fear of them shooting you over a misunderstanding.
This actually helps those police to be seen in a positive light by society.
I see this as an appropriate compromise. Mitigates the potential for casual police shootings with only 1-2 law enforcement witnesses.
But American police, while paid a lot for very little education, don’t want to take ANY risks despite explicitly being paid to. They aren’t even in the top 20 most dangerous professions in the US.
They shoot until everyone’s dead, then ask the corpses questions, instead of doing their jobs and protecting citizens with their lives if necessary. That’s why you get paid booku bucks with a high school diploma, at least in theory.

oh cool. cops need guns here.
Clearly they believe so, since they see their job as shooting minorities for existing, even in their own homes.
And if they didn’t want to be seen as such, they’d police each other.
they don’t shoot minorities in my country, just criminals. Sounds like your country has a problem.
Yes, the US does have a lot of problems like this.
Be glad you’re not from here.
I am very glad i don’t live in the USA, the whole population is very violent and cruel to each other.
