See this all the time

2018-03-22 14:23:52 UTC  

I'm pretty sure they don't even carry guns

2018-03-22 14:23:53 UTC  

lol

2018-03-22 14:23:57 UTC  

"why didn't they just back up"

2018-03-22 14:24:01 UTC  

"why didn't they tase him"

they can't shoot him

2018-03-22 14:24:10 UTC  

"why didn't they pepper spray him"

2018-03-22 14:24:16 UTC  

Because then you get videos like this

they don't have pepper

2018-03-22 14:24:38 UTC  

I used to think UKops weren't armed, but this was like 1991

2018-03-22 14:24:42 UTC  

thought times had changed since then

2018-03-22 14:24:54 UTC  

Even Oz police have shooty-shoots

2018-03-22 14:25:00 UTC  

Blue would know better then I, but I'm pretty sure they don't

Uk cops is 1 or 11

2018-03-22 14:25:07 UTC  

I'm pretty sure they are not armed

2018-03-22 14:25:19 UTC  

Possibly depends on the department/location etc

2018-03-22 14:25:21 UTC  

They are just people with hats and uniforms

it's either wet wipes useless idiots

SMG armed soldiers

2018-03-22 14:25:48 UTC  

Pretty sure Oz have Glocks

2018-03-22 14:25:52 UTC  

from what I've seen

2018-03-22 14:26:18 UTC  

"The United Kingdom is made up of four constituent countries: England, Scotland, Wales (which make up Great Britain), and Northern Ireland. In Northern Ireland, all police officers carry firearms. In the rest of the United Kingdom, the majority of police officers do not carry firearms; that duty is instead carried out by specially-trained firearms officers."

2018-03-22 14:26:44 UTC  

I didn't make it up, lol

2018-03-22 14:26:49 UTC  

That's what I've tended to see, too

2018-03-22 14:26:57 UTC  

Either bobbies with strong words

2018-03-22 14:27:01 UTC  

Or bobbies with MP5s

they do not carry firearms

2018-03-22 14:27:36 UTC  

Who are you arguing against

2018-03-22 14:28:22 UTC  

not a bad choice

2018-03-22 14:28:32 UTC  

The wiki says UK police don't carry firearms and that only specially trained firearms officers carry weapons (which is obviously not regular police duty they seem to imply)

2018-03-22 14:28:52 UTC  

meanwhile, the taxpayer-funded media report it thusly:

2018-03-22 14:29:34 UTC  

"Is it a Glock 22?"

"no, it's a .40 calibre Smith and Wesson!"

2018-03-22 14:29:38 UTC  

Gotta prepare for the crackdown on shitposters.

yes normal Police only have batons

IF the situation is BAD they send SMG armed, basically Army
