If you're going to manufacture a toy gun, I'm not sure how much MORE like a toy it could possibly be made to look....white plastic, red barrel plug......
Obviously not their first rodeo.
Correction: Actually, that’s a PINK barrel plug now that I’ve looked more closely at the pic.
meanwhile the muggings and robberies continue unabated. I’m sure the Brits feel safer knowing their protectors are taking care of these two.
This is nothing more than the police sending a message:conform completely to our socialist will,or we will make your life a hell on earth.Bet it worked too.

“An off-duty police officer failed to see the joke, reporting the girls for threatening motorists.”
Betcha a hundred bucks it was a woman or a homo.
I find that statement to be "terrifying".
Vote for Rudy and we can all enjoy the benefits of an unarmed society serfdom.
If the Comments posted after the article on the Daily Mail's page are any indication, you are certainly correct in that the consensus is one of amazement at the ludicrous and frightening overreaction.
Those two do look kind of dangerous, but not because of their little plastic guns.
Meanwhile, undisturbed around the corner...
It certainly looks that way, doesn't it? It's one thing to overreact because of reports of "a person pointing a gun at motorists" but it's another thing entirely to keep them in jail for HOURS, scare them silly and never apologize or admit that they've made a mistake. The overreaction's damage was compounded by their refusal to offer the barest suggestion that they had done anything even slightly wrong. Quite an ominous message it sends.
They will be banning song lyrics that mention guns next.
“A police spokesman said: “When we receive reports of guns being pointed at people, we have a duty to take firm action and that means responding with armed officers.”
The police spokesman is an idiot and a coward. People like him do not deserve freedom and will be enslaved eventially.
Betcha a hundred bucks it was a woman or a homo.
I won't take that bet....I need that hundred to fill up the tank of the stoatmobile and I would surely lose.
Another article that may be of interest:
Great Britain White men may wait three years to get into the Metropolitan Police
Law enforcement in the UK is completely broken. They send a huge task force with guns and helicopters after two girls dressed in cowboy outfits. But they completely ignore the high crime areas in the cities where Pakistani Muslims have taken over large areas, beat up the inhabitants, and enforce gang rule.
They have orders not to shoot of Muslims attack their cars and break their windshields, but you can bet they might have shot these two girls if they hadn’t had the good sense to pull into a crowded parking lot.
Basically, the police are just following orders from their socialist masters.
Wise choice. No limit to what a government can, will, and wants to do - when there are no witnesses...
Farenheit 451!
