Honestly, it's the closest thing to symmetry yet. Let them know what it is like to constantly be under attack, to have your brothers slain in the street daily without provocation.

Actually that's what's causing most killings by police. Police feeling like they are constantly under attack and that their lives are in danger every second of the day and that they have to protect their lives with the guns they were given.

The consequences of such events do not move society in a positive direction, however.

Being a policeman is and should be a risky job. Not to the point of people orchestrating mass police killings but you shouldn't try to eliminate risk from being a policemen by shooting every citizen that might pose some threat to you.
