AND some bloody good/regular training to go with it all.

Use the correct tool for the job if time allows.
If the cops are not trained and kept up to a decent standard I vote they get wooden battons and mace.
No guns for amateurs on patrol.

That is the problem right? I would want all that stuff too. Cops see a different world. Their world is one where everyone is a criminal. You don't want them to project their world view onto the rest of us.

You can beat the ever loving shit out of a crackhead and it won't make a scrap of difference. You have to break bits off them before you will incapacitate them.

Our cops are going to end up weird doing that all day.
