“.....without defensive weaponry were entirely unprepared to face an ongoing attack by murderous, AK-47-wieldling Islamist gunmen. The first police to arrive at the scene of the attack were forced to withdraw in the face of superior firepower”

And we don't want our police forces to have military weaponry superior to potentially similar foes, because we're afraid they'll use them on us. There must be some kind of balance - somehow, some way.
