Just stick to insults puds, you’re moderately funny at that.
Again. Understood what drac saying and thank you drac for your insight and what shared.
N.y.c. police officers of late have special forces out with special rifles near the subways and such
See Andy needs control..he knows alllllll.
“One of the reasons I moved out of Manchester was because there were armed police patrolling everywhere.”
That seriously is the stupidest thing you ever wrote. Debating retards is a waste of my time. It’s like trying to play chess with a houseplant. There is no point for me to participate in this thread any longer.
The nature of the police is also a significant difference between the US and the UK, although with the refusal of the police to intervene in some of the recent school shootings clearly shows that they don’t exist to protect people.
I have always been deeply distrustful of the police, i’m not sure how this is a surprise to you
‘I have always been deeply distrustful of the police’ says drac.
Since birth drac?
You caught me by surprise, Drac. I would never want unarmed police. We don’t have them unless they’re metermaids writing parking tickets. Unarmed police mean criminals can be in charge if all they do is bring a gun with them.

I’m much more likely to be harmed by a police officer than a criminal.
No police in this country are unarmed though, they all carry tasers, which are much more dangerous than most people seem to think they are.

And here was me thinking a police officer shouts a warning before he/her fires a taser. So if you carry on running you will be shot with one. Im fairly sure taser is shouted 3 times before its fired to let other police know and also let the criminal know. So the only way you will be shot with one Drac is by not doing what they are telling you before its discharged.And yes sometimes it goes wrong and its discharged without the shout.
I wonder what side of the law drac and somer live on. The only time I’ve had a chat with the police was when a lawnmower was stolen down my road and they called to see if I’d heard anything. Very respectful she was.
I happen to respect our police and especially the fact that community police to not carry guns. The tazer doctrine was imported from guess where?, but I’d rather they have that than a handgun. The truncheons they’ve been carrying for hundreds of years can probably do more damage to a skull. They are trying to keep themselves AND US safe from the real criminals who seek to do us harm. A distant relative goes on solo night response to boozy town centres because the police can’t afford to double up. Respect to him.
I have NOTHING to be afraid of from the British police. Sure they fuck up such as the Jean Charles de Menezes case. Terrorism causes mistakes everywhere. Would anyone like to do the the statistical research about comparing justified and unjustified killings by normally unarmed and normally armed police forces?, instead of bitching and moaning because of your paranoia about life.

You see, and as it’s been generally agreed with in here, the UK does not have a gun culture. By comparison, the USA does have a gun culture. Ergo, it makes sense that the police forces should reflect this culture. I fear that if our British community police were to become armed with handguns then the level of gun ownership gun violence and gun killings would increase.
Unfortunately, the police find it increasing necessary to go on armed patrols in the areas of gang violence where gang members might be armed. If we didn’t have armed violent gangs and if we didn’t have terrorism then the level of armed police would be low but that doesn’t mean we all have to go out and buy guns to keep us all safe.
I note that my mate puds has dodged practically every question about the level of guns related to gun violence in this thread, preferring to respond to irrelevant trivia or just insult his way out of a corner because he has nothing else to base his arguments on.
Rock on puds, your country has a gun culture and will never change. My country hasn’t and hopefully never will.
I hope you enjoy your boy tRump being exterminated over the next few weeks ( sorry, couldn’t resist).
I would like to add my little thoughts on this terrible mass murder of little children .this killer was definitely odd but there are probably 20 other strange and odd people in his town that never hurt anyone .An odd isolative personality but obviously took out his rage on those poor darling children .Im sure he had this planned but instead of taking his own life he thought im going to take some out with me punishing society .Very hard to distinguish these sorts of people in any society but the fact he had this sort of rifle an AK made is easier to carry out his plan.Shocking for the families and the police that stood back and didnt storm the building .I do beleive life is becoming worthless now and there is definitly something wrong with society that are developing these sorts of characters .God bless the families and the poor deceased children .
