Question, do police possess guns to kill people?

I am sure many folks collect guns similar to swords but I am guessing that's a small number. Again, don't kid yourself about the real purpose of guns. I own 2 guns with the purpose of hunting while the other portion own guns for protection. I personally don't own any guns with the intent of protection and think it's nonsense in Canada. Either way my guns are to kill (bucks, elk etc.), the others are to kill (humans) whether with intent or self defence. A small portion is for collecting/antiques, scaring crows from a corn field, a starting gun for a marathon etc.
As for police, it falls under the 2 categories I suggest which is protection and if used is intended to kill.
