Maybe we need to look into more practical non lethal weaponry for the police, and remove their ability to carry a lethal sidearm. If we could develop a high accuracy non tethered taser, or something that has good stopping power and a decent accuracy at 25 meters, that would be a replacement. Then they could have an AR15 locked in the trunk; if they know they're going into a really high risk situation, it'll be there. But it won't be the first thing that they reach for when a homeless guy is swinging around a broom handle in public.
