Absolutely not. That would be a backward step. Thankfully it is not likely to happen any time soon. Of course the police already have armed response units.

EDIT
To "Anthony": you are calling me "stoopid" when your command of the English language is obviously minimal ! How rude.

Presumably you live in a country where, in the last few days, the latest in a long list of mass murders by shooting has taken place. A lack of a gun culture greatly reduces the chances of this occurring - fact.

The British police have the right of self-defence and, in the absence of a gun culture, rarely need to deploy their armed response units in order to resolve unpleasant situations.

It is perhaps difficult for people who live in a country where guns are freely available to comprehend how safe we feel in the UK where there is no gun culture. Are the majority of your answerers agreeing with me ? - I think they are.

since those muslim terrorists are armed it only makes sense to arm the police and shoot to kill.

No need nor do the police want all officers to be armed. All police forces have armed response units
my police forces has never had to fire a shot in other a 100 years.

No...Thin end of....

No, or we will end up like the States where every criminal will be armed.

No. It will merely create more violent criminals and the British Police have an alarming record of shooting people unnecessarily when they are armed

No. ARUs are all we need from time to time. We are better balanced and less insecure than gun cultures.

No need to. Unlike America WE do not hate our Police force or Government

It's always good to be prepared for the worst, as Bush taught us, so, yeah, every government should be armed.

Anthony you just have to take at look at the number of mass killings by surprise surprise guns every month in the USA.
But then a Yank who has admitted to having a small number of brain cells could not take that fact in!
And David you clearly are not aware of the large number of collage graduates the police now recruit.
The is no need to arm every officer as we British don't have a bunch of utterly potty citizens carrying firearms and at the drop of an augment will whip one out to settle the argument by blowing the other person away.
For the few occasion's we have highly trained fire arms units who in many cases even they don't need to fire a shot in anger.

As you are an idiotic American who makes rude responses to all sensible answers, you don't deserve one from me.
2016-02-22 10:25 am
No, all the police forces already have armed firearms units.
2016-02-22 10:07 am
The police have shown they can't be trusted to use supposedly non-lethal weapons such as tazers. Why would I want a 22 year old PC that has the IQ of a meerkat to be carrying a gun?
