We make fun of the UK’s bobbies with just a nightstick, but there’s got to be some happy medium somewhere.

I guess this county sheriff's department spent the Taser budget on extra ammo.

The English Bobbies are unarmed for the very reason that the English subjects did not trust them at the time of their authorization by the Crown. They still are not armed, by tradition, they say, but there has never been an expression of trust from the public.
