Lest we not forget, In WW2, England BEGGED the U.S. to send them small arms to defend the empire with, for they had been taken away from the 'subjects'.
So England was armed with small arms again, and after the threat of invasion from Germany had passed, the arms were once again taken away from the 'subjects' in the name of "Saftey". (Sound familiar?)
So now England ia once again under threat of invasion, But this time it is the armed criminal, not foreign powers doing the invading. So now the Bobbies have to be armed.
Remember your History lessons folks. I'm proud to be a 'citizen' and not a 'subject'.

Lucky you, some of us don't have any choice.
