bc that's the main reason police are given that right...

bc they are supposed to be able to protect themselves and everyone else...

pulling a gun out in public as a civillian is supposed to be dangerous

pulling a gun out in public as an officer is not supposed to be

we see that things aren't going as planned bc they are

a.) human
b.) equally as incompetent at thinking/acting as other humans
c.) often poorly trained
d.) operating within an already flawed and biased system

but in a just world...yea...this is a right reserved by police officers
