yeah, no disagreement here, but french cops are overarmed in the context of a country banning weapons for its citizens and with an overall lower crime rate than in the us

Also, there are police and police. Police Nationale is armed. Police municipale may be armed but often not. Then, where police is not present, Gendarmerie is armed, but that is the 4th branch of the armed forces with a role that includes law enforcement.
Every police is accused. This is where justice needs to be clear, and countries should be careful of things like "qualified immunity". which often ends up making cops too unaccountable in my opinion
