     Then they wonder why we don't take them that seriously. Tongue

Actually, with our firearm-related death rate being the fourth highest in the world, along with an all-powerful gun lobby, it's the rest of the world that doesn't take us seriously.  Wink

I would not trust the police with guns even if they had training.


Apparently though it's perfectly fine to trust them to have batons.

Perfectly fine?  His point in posting that image was that they can barely be trusted with batons either.  I thought that was obvious...? Huh

This has been another excellent example of why Americans should stay away from debates on gun rights in the UK.  (I had to learn it the hard way myself several years ago.)
