Disarming police lethal force and rearming police with non lethal force will save more lives around the United States. With the billions/trillions of dollars the United States have they should put money towards investing into saving more lives with non lethal weapons. We are living in a time where not only civilians are fearing for their lives but also law enforcement. Fear causes our mind and body to get ready for attack. When we remove the number one cause of deaths between civilians and law enforcement then we save more lives. This will be the start of a more safe and protected society. There are non lethal weapons such as Net Gun's, Tranquilizer Gun, LED Incapacitator, Bean Bag Guns, JPX Jet Protector, Tactical Pen, Sticky Foam Gun please research and help find more non lethal methods. There are many tactics and weapons that can be exercised/practiced by law enforcement other than resulting to a more heartless method of using lethal force. The United States should be creating more laws to ensure a more safe society. This can be the start of that.
