"The duration of the training in the Police Academy varies for the different agencies. It usually takes about 13 to 19 weeks on average but can last up to six months. "
A little more weapons training is not what's making the difference in the kill rate of US cops. It's all the anti-poor, anti-minority, bully training they receive from their fellow racists on the job.
It's the complete lack of accountability for committing crimes while wearing a badge. It's the separate set of laws they have for each other, while enforcing much stricter laws on us. And it's that the wealthy want it that way, so the cops and the rest of us will fight each other, instead of turning en masse against the rich and devouring them whole.
