    The training sets up the mindset of the cops.

    I don’t believe any cop should get advanced weapon training unless they’re explicitly assigned to SWAT and/or Riot control. And normal beat cops honestly don’t deal with hyperviolent people often enough to deserve the mindshift or the training for violence.
