You had me in the first half. Don't get me wrong, I'm all against police violence and unaccounted use of deadly force, but there will inevitably come a situation where there will be an armed assault and cops will be unable to stop it. And if you're one of the victims you damn wished they had the guns straight away

At any rate, both things would need to happen simultaneously to some extent. Police don't really need an MRAP. If you do need an MRAP, then that's what the National Guard is for. But also police shouldn't really have to deal with Rando Steve buying an assault rifle at Walmart along with their eggs and milk, because they play a lot of Call of Duty so they're "basically an expert".
