BS. Of course german cops carry guns on the street. IIRC, Walther P99 and/or HK P2000. In times of heightened threat level, the police cars carry HK MP5s in the trunk from what I heard from cop friends. However, and that's the difference here, none of them EVER shot a weapon outside of training/shooting ranges. You don't even lose a bullet, because you have to file a report for every one that's missing from your arsenal. I've heard several german cops state that they're sure they're done with being a police officer if they would ever have to shoot someone.
