@neugierdsnase@mastodon.social They do operate under different premise. But if the police are better trained at the very least their error rate should be lower than the average citizen.

Also the most telling and relevant stat is the average number of people killed before being stopped during a rampage. The different way they operate is exactly the point. Police need to get there before they can help, the general population is already on the scene. So the differences are exactly the point in my eyes.
