Now will he man up, and authorize the issuing and carrying of sidearms in public?

The best way to defeat terrorism is for everyone including our brave service personnel to go about their lives as normal. Wrong, Dave.

Actually, just give them their swords.
That was one of the few moments in the last couple of years that Cameron stood up and did something.
To: the scotsman
So military personnel must now hide who they are in their own country, for fear of enraging the nice Muslims. Who's winning here?

Yeah, stick your heads in the sand and the problem might just go away on its own...

Positive move.
But, its just not the UK that has problems dealing realistically with Islam. In the US, the so called conservative GOP has many pro-Islamic types, especially fundraiser Grover Norquist (who is a supporter of groups tied to Islamic Terrorism). Even GW Bush many times used the Dhimmi phrase “Islam is a Religion of Peace”
Until we deal with Islamics realistically... we will always have problems with Islamic Terrorism

“That was one of the few moments in the last couple of years that Cameron stood up and did something.”
That’s because Cameron has Nigel Farage, head of the right nationalist party UKIP that is rapidly gaining popularity in the U.K. breathing down his neck.

The victim wasn’t even in uniform.
Here in the states I would have no problem with seeing military people armed and in uniform going about their daily business.

Agree. When it comes to saving a life , any and all means should be utilized.
To: cripplecreek
Actually... many US installations stateside frown on troops wearing military uniforms off-post or off-base...it has been that way for decades...unless they are on a specific duty requiring them to be in civilian sector

Hmm, is that why terrorism is defeated? I’m not sure we should listen to people like Cameron on this issue.

Sometimes that may be the case but here in Hampton Roads, VA where we have lots of military, it’s really left up to the individual...
We got lots of troops in unie on the beach...

They still can't even name the enemy.

Yes. As a National Guardsman in the 60s and 70s, wearing the uniform in public meant laundering the spittle off of it afterwards.
By the way, the spittle came from critters that are now in charge of the RAT Party and our government.
