    No I don’t think cops are “normal” at all - they’re literally the exception of every concept of normality because we have given them a monopoly on violence on purpose.

      Depending on which state you live in, you likely pass and interact with people that are armed that you have no clue about, because they are just normal people.

        I am aware that more people are armed than I would like. I find that fact to be disturbing and those people to be weird.

        There just isn’t that much to be that afraid of for 99% of people.
