Serious. It would stop a lot of aggressive behavior of the 'professional police'. The whole 'professional police' thing is a relatively new thing, and the country did without them for most of America's history.

Some specialist officers regularly carry weapons in Britain. It's not like here, where every Barney Fife gets issued a Glock.

I was a civilian (state employee) security guard at an Air Guard base in the 80’s after I left the service. Depending on my post that night I carried a S&W .38 revolver & 18 rounds or a FULLY AUTOMATIC (selective fire) Air-Force style M-16 with 120 rounds on my person. The local PD were actually somewhat scared of us. LOL

In Britain citizens don’t have guns.

Your comments are weird.
