I have nothing against the police being armed, with one proviso. I don't believe they should be able to carry weapons that aren't available to the law-abiding general public. I don't like the idea of having a class of citizens who are above the laws that the rest of us have to live by, so if a cop can carry a Glock, I want one too.

Not every one should be armed there will be no difference between robbers and cops. One in 3 should be armed or may be the head of a team should be armed.

Thats a really good answer, I believe also only a few select people of the poilce force should be armed.
