  1. Unfortunately I cannot locate it myself atm but I'll be on the lookout for it. Look up LT Gov of texas and conceal carry shows 25% drop in crime such as murder, etc. also the town of Kennesaw, Georgia, USA has a requirement to legally own a firearm to live there and the crime rate is pretty much 0 https://www.kennesaw-ga.gov/crime-statistics/ Shows gun ownership prevents crime.
  2. Not sure if I agree but tasers work 50% of the time, its useless during the winter, Law Enforcement here use tasers with knives but only when an additional unit is there because if hey I either miss or taser doesnt work then the back up officer will put down the guy. But an armed presence for regular patrol officers would actually provide safety to those around him because when a criminal sees a gun it will deter the crime and that is a fact. In Texas a city hugely encouraged the populace to open carry (visible holstered weapons) for a whole month and in that month police reported a 60-80% in violent crime drop. (FACT)
  3. Ok well put yourself in an American LEOs shoes, and know that these people who put their lives on the line for complete strangers are massive targets to alot of people. Also I can agree with your top point but think about this. They cant hurt them because of their armed security right? well then who is the easiest targets now and can cause the most damage? CIVILIANS. they are always the intended target to start unrest and FEAR. These fuckheads know this and they know that normal response is quick but if they have weapons they cant do shit! another 10 min MAX armed response shows up. You know how many innocent civilians can die in 10 minutes? Not against the government having armed guards but show the civilian populace you care about their safety and have armed officers that can respond immediately or are on a beat patrol and STOP THE THREAT. Because you are an average citizen and if you are in danger you have to wait longer than normal, but government officials get quicker response. Seems like they care. Ok let me relate to you. in the late 90s in Los Angeles, California the LAPD only had 38. Revolvers, 9mm Beretta handguns, and 12 Gauge Shotguns. A bank robbery occurred with two men armed with fully automatic AK47s with massive Illegal modifications on them and full body armor. an LAPD Patrol unit spotted them and called in additional units. these guys came out and sprayed into the officers, injuring most of them and had enough ammo to start a small war. LAPD SWAT was called but they were across the city doing training, these officers got torn apart by these guys that when the two were leaving the bank and tried to go a suburban area they had DETECTIVES and off duty officers not in uniform trying to stop them. one guy shot himself because he ran out of ammo. 60 minutes later LAPD SWAT shows up and get into a dangerously close firefight and take him down alive. Thankfully every officer survived but after that day they began to arm LAPD Officers with AR-15 rifles and that situation began the trend of Law Enforcement having AR-15 Patrol Rifles with them. Trust me no matter what you think if you were in that situation when people are coming at you with knives you will be begging that you had a Service Pistol. ALso you seem to be missing the point. the terror plots are against the government yes but they target the easiest people to kill or harm which is the civilian populace. "So to solve a problem where on rare occassions somebody commits a terrorist attack in this country, your solution is to place 126k firearms trained officers onto the street, it really doesn't make sense to me." Well guess what buttercup more people will get to live because they were saved by an armed police officer. sure I will take your word that it might be rare but if an armed officer was there when peoples lives were in danger more people would be with their families and not watching as their loved one is lowered into a grave, why you dont see that as logical is beyond me.
  4. Well then if recent terrorist attacks show that civilians seem to be the big targets since they are the only ones being affected these attacks. "One Police Officer got stabbed, sad situation I must admit but he survived. However one stabbing does not justify the need to equip all 126 thousand cops with firearms" It wasn't just him though but several others, and more, and more people are being kille. Less people would of been stabbed if (Law abiding citizen was armed) or if the Police Officer that almost lost his life and HIS FAMILY would of lost a Father and Son because he wasn't armed. "The queen and government officials get armed police because they are targets, they are in everyway more likely to be attacked by terrorists or pretty much anyone who disagrees with them, the same cannot be said for an average citizen." Tell me how many "Average Citizens" were killed vs Government Officials? honestly idc about them having armed guards but give me the answer to my question and ask yourself who are the targets of these attacks or better yet who is affected by it most.
  5. You do realize Law Enforcement get firearms to not only protect themselves but others? have you heard of that UK Officer that was stabbed trying to stop the restaurant stabbing? God Bless that officer but no one here could possibly disagree with me when I say that If he had a gun it would of been over right away. Its not the stupid point of "Police here dont shoot when they dont need too" its not that but for public safety. why does the queen or government officials able to get armed police/military but the citizens have to wait for an armed response. what if a lone officer is getting surrounded by several people with knives or machetes? its not trying to say "Oh my Police is better because we dont believe in shooting people" Get that selfish attitude out of here and put yourself in their goddamn shoes.
  6. I will be very honest about your friend. he seems to care more about how much "Protocol" was broken even though I'm going to assume he has no knowledge of the LVMPDs Protocols. An LEO and Firearms expert/trainer said "this officer did fantastic, instead of firing out the window he used his DOMINANT hand and fired from the windshield at the suspects and the second they stopped he may have had a set back while reload but once he finished he got back in it and continued to put down fire until the threat was eliminated." quote isnt exact but I can locate the video and post here. In a situation like that you wouldn't be worrying about "protocol" but the safety of yourself, officers, and civilians around you. That's the unfortunate reality of these kind of situations. my friend's father was with the LVMPD and the Protocol is the if a pursuit happens you are to get the plate and break off, or a helo will follow it. BUT situations involving police shootings or a murder suspect are different and pursuits have to be made. there have been cases of a stray round hitting a civilian but the execution and how he properly handled his weapon shows that he knew what he was doing. For instance instead of firing from his left hand out the window, he used his DOMINANT hand and got closer to get good shots off on them. This also is an experienced officer (Notice his stripes) and shows. Also an LEO and Firearms expert/trainer said that this officer did a fantastic job and I'm glad no one was hurt except that suspect that was shooting at police. Last thing LVMPD protocol allows them to fire from a vehicle if they are in danger or others around them. Should also mention the LVMPD are trained like SWAT and know how to fight, they are one of the most demanding and professional police departments in the US and it shows.
