[@coltsfoot9926]

My dad was a UK police officer and he volunteered for training as a firearms officer. He had normal police duties, but could be called upon to carry a firearm when needed. He was rarely needed, and said that he attended more firearms training courses than the times he carried a weapon on duty. He did say that he hated the extra level of responsibility when carrying a pistol or other firearm. But he also said that it was occasionally required, and he felt pride that he was one of the ones qualified. He retired in the 1980s, and since then the frequency of seeing and hearing about police with firearms on the streets has massively increased, but still the majority of police in the UK do not carry firearms.

[@coot1925]

The biggest difference between the UK and the US is that along with the rest of the industrialised world we have updated and changed our gun laws over the last 200 years to keep our citizens safer. Buying a gun in the UK is a long and complicated process which involves the police interviewing your employer, family and doctor to assess if you are safe to own a firearm. Then there are restrictions on what type of gun you can own, where you can use it, where you store it and for what purpose. You can't walk into Walmart and buy a gun, they are only available at specialized gun shops who will check your licence very thoroughly. So basically no members of the public are allowed to carry firearms in public places. Check this sorry state of affairs out dude and see who's gun laws work the best. Here's some stats on school shootings since 2009:- Canada 2 France 2 Germany 1 Japan 0 Italy 0 UK 0 US 288. I rest my case. ✌️♥️🇬🇧

My grandfather lived in a remote area in Scotland so they didn't have 24/7 police. After the War he became what is known as a 'Special Constable' he had the police hat, truncheon and jacket.

He was serving a more vast varied community, especially if it snowed and everyone was more or less trapped.

This was back to your best Leo. Many people believe guns areillegal here in the Uk and they are not. The two big differences are 1. There isn't the huge interest in guns here. Yes there are gun clubs etc. for both hunting in certain seasons and sport. 2. To actually get a licence to have a gun is a long process and regulated by the police. There are a lot of hoops to jump through to get one. We already had quite strict gun laws but a shooting at a school in Scotland lead to a huge campain to change laws and vast amouts of weapons were handed in and destroyed. Even a lot of criminals will think twice about taking a firearm to a burglery because if caught their sentance would be 4 x plus what it may have been just for carrying it. Plus they know that the cops dont have them so they dont need it to defend themselves.

Main issue with this is, the UK has much more strict gun laws (hunting rifles are a little different, but handguns and other types are vastly harder to get out there). Plus it’s a much smaller country so just statistically they have less gun violence on top of the stricter laws. In the US as long as you don’t have a felony or some court ordered whatever on you in the system, you can just walk in a store and buy one. Which means the bad guys just have someone buy them one and from there they can steal more or whatever etc etc lol

This video didn't mention PSNI(Police Service of Northern Ireland) are routinely armed on duty and depending on time of year of if there is a security threat there can be 3 officer patrols with at least one of them armed with G36 assault rifle. They still have the armoured Landrovers too although they are being used less and less in standard patrols. "Going at the mercy of the wolves..." kinda says it all tbh. I'm not American but as an outside observer one of the main things that has always struck me about American policing is the "US vs THEM" mentality. You're police officers meant to be serving the community you live in and are part of, not going to war facing an enemy. The whole "US vs THEM" comradery, having each others backs in the trenches is exactly what you need from the MILITARY, not a Police force! Look at UK and how badly we screwed up N.Ireland. UK Gov had a policing and security problem so they sent the freaking British Army in! Over 30yrs of "troubles" and many needless deaths came out of that lunacy. USA even have it in your laws that the military can't be used to police the people so why the hell would you want to model your police forces after the military?
