Every iteration of gun control, with few exceptions, carves out exceptions for LEOs and Military. If you want this to stop a good start would be making these guys have to follow the laws the rest of us do, because if you campaign for more of the same from your lawmakers, I guarantee there will still be exceptions for the people who protect the rich.

Imagine if the cops had to make do with muzzle loaders like in Disco Elysium.

Then you end up with the criminals, 12 cops, and 8 civilians dead.

None of them were using muzzle loaders. The death toll and injury count would have been drastically lower if it took roughly 30 seconds to a minute to reload the guns per shot.

It wasn't the cops that shot civilians, take 30 seconds to skim the page.
