I'll bet you've never started a thread about winter fuel allowances, odd that eh.
it would be interesting to see how many families who complain about being unable to afford heat possess flat screen HD TVs, sky sports, playstations, ipads and smartphones. ( this is not to detract from the situation of people in genuine need).

Says the member of 4 years with 43 posts to his name odd that eh!! feel free sean to start participating in the forum more, you have spoken more in my thread than you have in 4 years of being a member, Crack on mate and start a thread.
Comments like that don't win arguments - on the topic here, does post count add credibility ?
I thought a bit of a reality check and a few facts might be just a bit more pointed and help calm the scaremongers.
Sean, I don't know your situation or what you have been up to work/location wise, and I'm not having a go at you, perhaps you would feel differently about dealing with these animals if you have had actual experience of what they are about.Comments like that don't win arguments - on the topic here, does post count add credibility ?

You might have missed the point I have been making.
You started a thread on a topic which deals with the actions of very few, which lead to the possible deaths of comparatively few, and if we should arm plod to deal with it. Its been shown that arming plod is conceptually flawed in the case in question.
I've pointed out that there's no threads being started, or have been previously started with regards to the numerous other causes of a far far greater number of deaths in this Country.
If folks were really bothered about saving lives, there'd be a hoard of threads discussing the topics I've mentioned but then that's not the current popular bandwagon is it.
So get starting some threads then instead of making the same comments over and over again, which by the way could be viewed as trolling.
I am more than happy to let another member of staff come in and moderate it but I am not going to start waving the Moderator stick in my own thread.
If this thread is closed just because Sean has an opinion most disagree with then you may as well shut the site.I think someone should close this thread. Does no good to argue like this.

I don't want the thread closing if i'm honest because it was becoming a good debate until we got sidetracked by completely unrelated arguments.
Don't count your chickens, I think your on your own lolI respect your opinion, perhaps others can see how my points actually are related, if its maximising the numbers of lives we are trying to save.
I'll make no further comments along those lines, ill just reitterate my last and leave it there.
Is anyone wiling to illustrate an opinion in favour of arming plod with any evidence of where it has been effective ?

Have you edited the thread fella? because I cannot see any problems so far.Can we all stick to the thread topic please, refrain from dragging in unrelated statistics and see if we can get back on track here, normally closing the thread would be easier but as GMES expresses, there is moments of a very good debate here so would be a shame to have to drop the thread.
There is clearly some strong opinions and passionate views here which is good for debate but we are teetering on the verge of turning into a slanging match which is not good so can we discuss like the gentlemen you are please

Glen unfortunately it is something that is more and more likely to happen. Less than 5 yrs ago you would never have seen police in a station with weapons, now at most main line stations in London they are quite prevalent.
I think within the next 2 yrs most squad cars will have firearms in them, if not already.
Doesn't normally make a difference haha.
And I'm actually born and bred in central London, just live in the beautiful Surrey now.
Until is all built over and ALL the roads are logged jammed
Do you not feel with have enough armed respose teams already for this ,I don't want to see any innocent people getting shot by the police but the issue for me is if a police officer responds to a call about a terrorist brandishing an ak47 I don't think it's fair to send him in with stun gun, for one thing he will need to get a lot closer to the gunman which leaves the officer in even more Danger, personally for me I think he would need to stop him from a safer distance.

I'd like to have more of them tbh. Lets look at Friday nights attack and who responded first? Policemen only armed with tazers, thank God that the "attacker" was not carrying a gun!!!
Biggest problem in my roads are cyclists and people who refuse to drive anywhere near the speed limit!
No buildings in my Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
If I am honest mate I don't what the numbers are for armed vs unarmed
Just some info i got of the google i know some it is old data so just a quick guide about 5 % of the police are armed tbo i thought it would be hire
