警察使用枪械行为的性质探析

Study on the Nature of the Police Use of Firearms Behavior

警察作为国家机器,其法定职责就在于预防和阻止犯罪,维护社会稳定。近年来,随着暴力犯罪的显著增加,对警察执法提出了更严峻的挑战,警察执法也面临诸多困境:一方面,社会出于安全考虑要求警察严格甚至严厉执法,鼓励警察使用枪械;另一方面,鼓励警察使用枪械行为可能导致警察权力的滥用,从而威胁公民个人权利。而要解决这一矛盾,就必须对警察执法过程中使用枪械的行为性质进行定性,通过对学术界有关警察使用枪械行为的分析,确定警察使用枪械行为的性质,从而规范警察执法中使用枪械的行为。

As the state apparatus, the legal duty of the police is to prevent and stop crime and to maintain social stability. In recent years, with the significant increase in violent crimes, the police enforcement faces more severe challenges and many difficulties. On the one hand, for security reasons, the society demands that the police force should enforce laws strictly or even toughly and encourages police to use firearms. On the other hand, encouraging the use of firearms by police may lead to the abuse of police power, thereby threatening the rights of citizens. To resolve this conflict, it is crucial to perform qualitative evaluations of the nature of acts when police use firearms in the course of law enforcement. The author aims to determine the nature of the use of firearms based on the behavior analyses conducted in academia concerning the use of firearms by the police,so as to regulate the use of firearms in police law enforcement.
