kent_white Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 To all those calling for the Police to carry guns. Do you reckon they should get hand grenades as well? Quote
no balls Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 To all those calling for the Police to carry guns. Do you reckon they should get hand grenades as well? And them star things. It's an emotive subject on a day like this. Im in the no camp as I'm one of those hippies who want no one to have one. Quote
miamiwhite Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) i hope that bastard rots in jail and in hell. Luring 2 people to their premature deaths is totally horrific and heartbreaking. trying to make a name for yourself is one thing but this is absolutely beyond belief. RIP to the murdered young women and heartfelt sympathy to their families and friends who must be totally devastated Edited September 18, 2012 by miamiwhite Quote
SHAT Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Notice the bottleless bastard didn't have the balls to lure an armed response unit out instead.Cowardly low life scum!! Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Please don't arm all the police. All hell will break loose if someone is shot who the public feel needn't have been. That's what started the riots last year. Moreover some coppers on the radio saying they woudn't want to be armed- they wouldn't feel comfortable. Currently those who are armed are very well trained and assessed. Either the pool of new recruits would reduce in size if these standards were maintained, or the standards would drop. Quote
no balls Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 As terrible as the incident is, looking at the stats, firearm offences have gone down consistently on the last 4 years, so to say it is more important to arm them now doesn't back that argument up In 2010-11, England and Wales witnessed 388 firearm offences in which there was a fatal or serious injury, 13% lower than the previous 12 months. In Scotland during the same period, there were two fatal and 109 non-fatal injuries during the same period, a decade-long low http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-19641398 Quote
Maggie Tate Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 I wouldn't trust most police with scissors, never mind firearms. Quote
