Law and Disorder

In several of the horrible mass shootings, police have just waited outside, rather than confronting the killer. In the Walmart massacre in Texas, law enforcement killed the heroic citizen who stopped the actual gunman. I am for law and order because the alternative is chaos and anarchy but realize that in many instances the first responders lack sufficient training or leadership or initiative to deal with what they are forced to confront. We can never expect and will never have perfect policing, but what America has now must be improved for everyone's safety, including the officers themselves.
