Why do I need a gun? Because I'm part of a minority and some guys in white ropes want me dead

The wildest thing the police in Denmark have is a slightly modified old mercedes minibus or something with bullet proof windows and tough tyres etc

Apart from that one vehicle they have some mini busses and such for transporting. But they arent really special, or built specifically for the police or whatever.

To defend against the tools with arsenals of weapons based on military ones? I mean, neither should be a thing in this society, but here we are.
