That still says nothing about their training and ability of the police officers. I want top of the line police officers first, then give them whatever tools they need.
No, but I imagine giving a poorly trained officer a rifle doesn't make it much worse, when they already had a handgun. So it wouldn't be a problem introduced by this change.
You can do a lot more damage a lot faster and from a lot further away with a high power rifle. But yes, ideally we have all the firearm cops being trained to the highest standards.
