That seems like a problem that only the US could have.

Still, less guns on both sides seems more likely to succeed than disarming only the police.

Again, the question isn't whether reducing the number of guns would improve things. I'm confident it would! I don't like guns and would support the modification of the 2nd Amendment (if modifying the Constitution weren't so dangerous).

The problem is, in the United States, you can't reduce the number of guns in civilian hands. But you can reduce the number of guns in the hands of the police. Strange, but true.
