The police does not kill you in most western countries because they are so useless at doing anything and don't even do their job of protecting people or going after criminals. the only metric they care about is fining people as much as possible for minor offenses.

The strength of a police force has only minimal predictive power regarding violent crime in a country.

The best known measure to lower violent crime is lowering inequality (e.g. progressive taxation paying for free education etc.): https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2018/06/07/the-star...

The USA has higher crime rates (particularly homicide), despite much higher incarceration rates, than most of Europe.
