gollark: What if they're not fighting crime but just random innocent people? Regular clothes?
gollark: The solution is, of course, to remove all weapons from police and train them only in hand to hand combat.
gollark: I'm not sure it's a "they have guns" problem as much as a cultural one. Apparently non-US countries can handle that mostly fine.
gollark: Anyway, I'm not sure about your "⅓ of the population bought into an alternate reality" thing. Politics is not really about, well, policies and the real world, much of the time, but tribalism and signalling.
gollark: Apparently US police get way less training than in most other countries.
