“How about fellow civilian?”

Sounds dumb.

“Can’t stand cops who think they are in some sort of military unit.”

I imagine that people rescued from hostage situations by S.W.A.T. would feel differently.

I would venture to say that most people who carry will not be in a hostage situation you mention above.

A typical big city SWAT team deals with hostage situations infrequently compared to their main line of work - conducting no-knock raids, usually on non-violent minor drug offenders.

Suicidal people who were killed by SWAT probably don’t feel differently.
