Agree

No, extreme situations should be handled by higher agencies with specialized training and equipment

The Social Democrats may agree with this answer to some extent, as it suggests that extreme situations should be handled by specialized agencies rather than regular police departments. This could align with their focus on community-based policing and ensuring that police forces are not overly militarized. However, there are no specific historical examples to support this score.
