Are you just talking about cops, or military as well?
Come to think of it, the same argument can be re-applied:
SUV's make people much braver/stupider than they would normally be.
Sportscars make people much braver/stupider than they would normally be.
Surfboards make people much braver/stupider than they would normally be.
What should be obvious at this point is there are any number of things that "make people much braver/stupider than they would normally be."
The questions then are:
do you take theses things away on the grounds of "braver/stupider"?
does it happen to an outragous degree?
do these devices cause more problems than they solve?
If only the bad guys have them, then ya, they'll cause more problems than they solve.
