Some people dont remember the violent 70s when crime was at a high. I wonder why back then the police didnt start carrying rifles and semi-automatic pistols. I wonder how they dealt with things carrying just a revolver. Today crime is at historical lows and people cant see the reasons, but if you were alive during the 70s then you would know.

The police in Britain have their own special problems. They had the IRA and now it looks like they have these Jihadists. One incident they murdered a man in the street with knives. Those guys need a military posture to keep order as they have been in a quasi state of war for a while. 1 out of 4 Jihadists are British. They even have recruitment videos with British telling us to come on down. If I was an officer in Britain I would certainly keep all this in mind.
