    Wait a minute I've seen plenty of pictures of your police armed to the teeth with not only pistols but automatic rifles like our M-4. Are some police armed and some are not armed?

    The ordinary beat Bobby has no firearms. If there was a weapon situation calls would be made to the specialised weapon police, these are called SO9.
    Swat tactical units are at the disposal of the Chief constable.

    It’s very peaceful on the whole here in the U.K. it’s a world apart from
    you crazies over the pond.
    Like it’s been said in the past “to understand a people you have to live amongst them”

    Every kind of crazy happens in North America. My guess is that so many people are criminals the police want to check out everyone they stop.

    There's no justifying lax security in voting. Most people want voter ID, whether they're in the UK or the US or anywhere else.

    I haven’t been stopped by a policeman in the street ever! Nor have I been pulled over by a policeman in over 20 years.
    I’ve had no reason to prove who I am but! I carry something that is even harder to get than a driving licence.

    This is a Gas safe card with all my details on it.

    The reason we have so much violent crime is because politicians refuse to keep them in prison when caught and ignore the mentally ill. Other that that crime would be low here. I've only had to shoot 4 criminals. Not that many really.

    If we did that over here there would be dead cops every where. By the time SWAT got there the crap would be all over.

    You really do have to "live among us" to know. The hell holes you read about are gun control cities run by Democrats. Areas run by Republicans and where everybody is armed to the teeth are relatively peaceful.

    All gun control zones are war zones and all non-gun control zones are relatively peaceful and minimum crime. Sure Montana where I live has some serious crime mostly because of the illegal immigrants and fentanyl but compared to a place like say Seattle or Chicago both gun free/control zones we are pretty safe and that's because Montanans carry just about every where and are heavily armed. Oh and Montana is not a heavily policed state either.
