There are plenty who do though. Your generalizing to much. I can bring up examples of both amazing police shooters, and amazing armed citizens who came to the aid of police or the general public. We both know examples can go both ways, you're choosing to deny the other half of the statistics in some sort of anti gun fueled blinders. Again, I deal with plenty of work life and death stress, and I have had to act in an effort to preserve my own life, and every day deal with everyone else's. I'm just unsure how you feel you can judge everyone who carries a firearm on their abilities based on whether they are a badged cop or not, because that title has little to do with an individual's skill or volition.
