I say no armed police unless the citizens are armed as well.
Government good guys with guns have a way of turning into bad guys when citizens are unarmed.
That works here but they need to start somewhere. I hope they realize citizens (not subjects) need to be able to protect themselves too. Even if their police are all eventually armed; they can't be everywhere at once. We in America know we have to take responsibility for our own protection; at least in the short run.
