Apparently they now have "Designated Shooters."
That would probably be an improvement, if we're going to have police shooters, if they did. Give the rank and file a shield and taser..only call in the hitters when they can't de-escalate.
It would, at least, reduce the pool of personnel you had to be super fuckin picky about. Take the averaghe number of interactions in which guns are a procedural requirement, and assign a -slightly- larger percentage of the overall police force in the area to armed units. Assess candidates for armed units by psych eval with a requirement of service without altercation of x period, and cycle candidates out of the armed units on a regular schedule to prevent desensitization.
