    Specific training for making decisions in high stress situations sounds very sensible for me, especially for police.

      Not if the decision is to just start shooting when an acorn falls on their car or someone’s holding a pot of water.

        You do understand that’s why I think the training is a good idea, right?

          They act that way because of the training they get. Look up killology. They’re taught that everyone is a potential armed enemy ready to kill them, and that they should shoot first and ask questions later.
