People saying too late for the taser need to give their heads a wobble. He’s one man with two possible suspects in a knife related incident. Not only has he got to keep an eye on the first suspect who is threatening him but also the other who is supposed to have a knife. If he tased him straight off without backup then he’s a sitting duck to be attacked from behind by his pal whilst he’s arresting him. Officer done well waiting for backup! And that could’ve easily turned bad for the Officer.

@@1finalfailure Correct. Only the armed police (AFOs) in each different county of the UK have pistols on their person and a carbine (usually a G36/M4 variants), Im not sure if I agree with arming all the police but what I can say is the Armed coppers we do have are very very good at what they do. They should have been called out to this scene, and were probably on the way (especially when machete/blades came into the picture) but may probably have arrived when it was all over. Just a guess but, yeah....Ive met way too many mega power tripping coppers in my 35 years in the UK to sign up to giving them all firearms just yet...

[@MayYourGodGoWithYou]

@@1finalfailure Ours aren't armed either though we have armed response units (in bright yellow and red cars in case you miss the large words on the sides of the vehicles) as well. I feel safer without armed cops thank you - don't think the NZ cops were armed when I lived there though, not even carrying them locked in the boot. Knew a few and they were proud of NOT being armed like other countries, maybe the illegal immigration issues (I still have family living there) has something to do with that. I know there were regular armed burglaries where dad lived in the bay of plenty, he was robbed regularly of anything and everything they could lay their hands on (including the toilet and the kitchen sink once believe it or not). Glad I'm in Ireland where guns are still not needed on a regular basis though it has been commented recently that the violence from over the Atlantic is making its way here, that was after a riot recently in Dublin egged on by the far right wing brigade and other criminal elements (or so it was alleged)..

[@MayYourGodGoWithYou]

@@1finalfailure I'm not surprised, dad said years ago the problem was illegal immigrants who had come in on work visas and simply stayed. But they weren't the ones all the fuss was about when I was younger (Vietnamese boat people) but who were willing to adapt and fit in, they were standing in the main street and would hassle the shoppers trying to do their shopping, especially the women. Mum gave up trying to go shopping on her own in the end and they only went out in pairs (she would go with a couple of their neighbours) because they weren't bothered by the blokes standing around trying to find a way to support themselves in the off seasons. It actually stopped me from returning although I was speaking to someone further over in the Lake Taupo region who was saying that where they were was probably one of the safest places in the country. The local chief was very very hot on law and order and would come down on criminals like a ton of bricks. I was seriously considering that but then dad moved up to Auckland to a nursing home near my brother and I decided I may as well stay in Ireland, I love it here and while we have issues - the biggest one at present is the far right anti everything brigade/sovereign citizens which seems to be permeating in from the US. They were heavily involved in recent rioting - although a criminal element were also involved so it was more a combination.

Respect to the police. Good on your professionalism.

Only a commendation? First class policing; God forbid this had been America!!!

[@OgglyGoogly]

Why is not every officer armed with firearms?

[@Finnbobjimbob]

Because it’s Britain you dunce, do you want our police to be trigger happy mass murderers like the yanks?

[@geordieal9187]

Ask the Met... cos they cant behave properly with just a truncheon

[@mandero88NAFO]

Because (for example) we're not the USA, a nation that has 300 million people armed with 400 million guns (and thats just the legal ones), we're a nation that has 70 milllion people and and maybe a thousand illegal firearms (not inlcuding [Northern] Ireland, theres probably still a fair few AK47s n Browning Hi-Powers left over from the troubles, theres probs a vickers machine gun or two too in a random stash house near the Northern border somewhere ha ha...but then Northern Irish police ARE armed. Only place in the UK where all police are armed). Rest of the UK though, we have armed police officers for armed incidents. I have a FAC (firearms cert) and a shotgun cert and have several of both types and have hunted all my life and grew up around guns and know more about them than most Americans, and I still dont think our beat bobbies should be armed. Its just not necessary statistically really, a single city like say St Louis or Atlanta may have 15 shootings in one night whereas i think 25 people total were killed by firearms in the entire UK last year. Yes I realise the incredible size difference between the two countries but ill let the statistics do the rest of the talking: "The annual rate of gun homicide per 100,000 of the population is currently 0.03 in Great Britain. This compares with 3.6 in the USA, a rate that is 120-fold greater. The total firearms death rate (including suicides and accidents as well) is 51 times higher in the US than in the UK."

absolutely pathetic, giving it the big one then crying in a split second also, what an earth are the coppers doing these days, all the begging to give him his arm, 40 years ago you would have been asked once and if you failed to do it in that position you would received a swift boot to the gut

[@untrust2033]

This is why uk police need guns...

[@JK4.]

This is an example of why they DONT all need guns. The situation was handled with a taser, a gun was not needed. If it was they would have had armed response units going.

[@RickyRyan718]

These villians must really regret being on drugs or boozed up, the errors and actions only make their sentences worse, no clue!

[@user23724]

It's such a shame to think that one day they will be free again. People like this cannot be rehabilitated, they are just evil through and through and need total life sentences to keep the rest of society safe. Our justice system puts the lives of criminals above the lives of their victims and potential victims.

[@Muflinn]

the fact that the police are armed only with a stun gun and not all units, I got used to, only special units are armed with firearms, but I will never understand why the British Police, so poorly armed, often drive in a police car with one person and react to dangerous situations. Such situations can end badly for the officer very quickly.

[@bobbyscott2123]

Nah they are usually on pairs of 2 in cars More so in vans I don’t know the backstory on this so ?

you can light a cig with a taser...just saying

[@divineprovidence803]

Welcome to mad Britain. This is why every police officer should carry a firearm. The officer can only fire the taser once. He would still have to fight the other suspect who may be armed. It's not a situation you want to be in even if you are a police officer.
