Is that a dichotomy?
The "only the police" almost makes it sound like that is what is being discussed around gun control laws.
The cops in the US are definitely more jumpy than I'm comfortable with - their natural reaction to a car door closing and someone (or is it just me, I look like a rake with an afro) stepping towards them is to touch their gun, because they treat every person as possibly armed & dangerous.
And it's not like I was in a high crime area either, all I needed was to know my way to SJC having missed 85.
