99.99% of the time the Police will never need to use or draw it but for that 1 times you need it it's better the Police have a gun rather than end up dead in the street.

It's my belief that if the police where armed then a lot of the 'hardened crims' who wouldn't think twice about doing somebody with a baseball bat would become quivering cowards when faced by two armed cops ,sure some would fight back but most are natural cowards when the playing field has been leveled.
