With all the stabbings and shootings that have been going on these past few months,do you think its about time that all police officers were armed or do you think its enough that we already have seperate armed response officers?
I think that they should, they have the right to protect them self and also there are some real strict rules with the usse of guns in the uk Police force.
i don't think they should be armed , we had a armed seige across the road from me a while ago and the police response was fantastic. they sent an armed unit out in very quick time and it was delt with extremley well. althouhg it was very frightening for us living directly opposite!
I think that we are getting to the stage where police should be armed at all times. If control isn't taken soon we may all end up with guns in our bedside cabinets just to feel safe....I don't know about you but I wouldn't want that.
