make bullets really, really expensive. say $5000 or so.

"you know, i'd pop a couple caps in your ass, but first i gotta get a job, pay off the mortgage, and then you'd better watch out!"
"dude! he must'a done something wrong. he's got $50,000 worth of bullets in him!"

Why? I know many police officers who prefer to buy their own ammuntion, and you're suggesting they go broke trying to serve the public?
