very sad but yes, quite understandable (at least in certain dangerous Democratic Party ruled cities), and hoping it doesn’t weigh him down too much?
I have started carrying 45rds(3 mags)10mm and 14rd for backup mouse gun. A revolver even if 44mag.. you are limited to 6rds before reloading.
Can’t have too much ammo unless you are drowning or on fire.
I often have 93 rounds of 9mm. Seems I like to just go bang!
“why one cop carries 145 rounds”
That’s all he had?
Any combat vet knows that the basic load is not enough ever if resup is not right there. Lotsa vets in the PD ranks. They know in a firefight which seems to be becoming the norm in the inner cities, firing 30-40 rounds is not uncommon, and that’s for one criminal shooting at you, then his buddies coming piling in and backup is still minutes out.
Used to carry basic load and gas mask bag full of extra mags and still felt under loaded.
Meet a guy who went thru150 rounds in defense. He was attacked at night in a lit parking lot at night, by three thugs hiding in shadowed bushes. He only had muzzle flashes to aim at while trying to hide behind a curb.
The gunfight is over the second YOU run out of ammunition.

If you need 145 rounds for a handgun, you have the wrong job and / or the wrong firearm as 145 rounds is for something that’s belt-fed.
In case he runs into 144 bad guys that need shooting and he misses once.
I carry an extra 6-round mag to go with the 6+1 in the weapon.
Sometimes, like with the virus, one has to just go with the odds that he’s gonna be OK
