i'v got no problem with pepper spray and tazers but I don't want cops carrying guns on the regula.

And well.. THe media isnt helping either showing them as racist in the US.

Then maybe solve the issue that made it a nessesity

No one wants to walk down the street surrounded by men in blue with mp5s.

Though I might be wired wrong... It only makes me want to take pictures

Anyway this current crime wave will not be solved by officiers carriing guns

You nead whole complex approach

Its the simplest really. Hope the potential criminals are rational enough to know that that TV in there is not worth 3 rounds in the chest

When the cops are armed to gangs have to keep up.

Hence why the common person must be armed

no, of course not. but banning knives doesn't solve it either

Most of those gangs are operating on selling drugs

Well, like the prohibition era when you could sell most firearms but not alcohol

Guess who could actually afford firearms?

Either cops or the Mafia

So legalize drugs somehow?

I mean that was a suggestion, worked with alcohol;

Or more like, banning alcohol didnt work

but i don't like a policy that means you need almost more officers than citizens, and the citizens are not allowed to then have the means to protect themselves from that force.

you have made citizens effectively prisoners.

Well you know how it goes, carry a gun, cause its easier than carrying a cop

not to mention police only show up AFTER a crime has been committed, maybe during if they are fast enough.

Stop and search needs to come back. I don't care if ppl shout racist. I'm white, I've been stopped countless times. Often with stuff on me that is illegal. Talk to the cops, explain or lie and they are good ppl. but if you can't explain your self, jail time or if you are a migrant, deportation.

Until there is 0 crime, people will have to rely on themselves first and formost

Illegal migrant?

Well that is just cause for deportation right?

legal or illegal. Out you go.

Legal? On what grounds then/

Breaking their terms of stay?

my life should not be forced to rely on some beat cop who may show up 10 minutes after i got shot, assuming i had the chance to call them.

Well didnt help that my dad suggesting giving them what they want.

Well what if they come back?

If you have chosen to come here for a better life and become a criminal you lose your right to stay.

So since citizens are not banished, migrants shouldnt either?

not at all.

We can't deport ppl born her, that does not mean we need to import ass holes as well.

Then whats the argument here then?

banish a yard worker immigrate for carrying around a hand rake?

Oh a migrant for carrying

Using hash punishment to deter this thing from happening.

One thing I learnt that the severity does not matter if you cant catch the offender
