RE: Should The Police In The UK Be Armed?

in #life7 years ago

I am not from the UK so I don't feel I should have any opinion on what they "Should" or "shouldn't" do.

But if I was thrown into an decision making position for the UK and was asked this, I would say not currently. from everything I know and understand about their last 30 years, certain types of crimes went down once the guns were outlawed... but I do know that other types of crime went up due to the society removing one less risk factor for attacking the someone.

So I would have to look at the numbers and determine which is more detrimental to the society. the type of crimes on the rise with guns, vs the type of crime that is on the rise without guns and determine which is better for society.

but again, what do I know? I'm an American... I don't know anything about the UK so my opinion doesn't matter 😂😂😂😂
