Here in NZ during the last couple of weeks there have been two police shootings. One involved an man armed with a large knife, who actually wounded a police officer. Another guy was shot and killed by police while executing a search warrant. Most police aren't armed with guns in NZ - as in the UK, only specially trained units have access to guns. Both fatal shootings were justified, given what I know of the situations.
The difference is, here in NZ, the next day on the news people were talking about whether it should be made harder for police to access guns!
Totally different mind set.
