FILE - In this June 12, 2016 file photo, an armed police officer stands guard outside the Stonewall Inn, in New York after a Florida gunman's attack at a gay nightclub spread fear of more attacks. The officer is heavily armed and equipped, in a manner typical of the NYPD's counterterrorism unit and Emergency Service Unit - the NYPD's equivalent of SWAT officers. But the NYPD plans to distribute 20,000 helmets and 6,000 vests before the end of the year to uniformed patrol officers to protect them better during combat with rampaging shooters (AP Photo/Mary Altaffer, File) (AP)
