Manchester shooting tragedy!!!
All I hear is 'Should the Police be armed all the time' in light of this tragedy in Manchester. Surely the question should be 'When will they bring back the 'DEATH Penalty' for these cowards?'. I say cowards because rather than take the risk of being hunted down and shot, as he certainly deserved to be', he handed himself in to the Police and avoided being killed, IMO.Thoughts Peeps???

But do not agree with police carrying guns. They can get guns when needed in a situation but this kind of thing comes out of the blue. Very sad indeed.
We are having such a big problem here with police shootings. Their current training has them fire on people who "appear" to have a weapon of any sort or "appear" to be reaching for a weapon. More often than not all they had was a cell phone or nothing at all. Our officers have access to bean bag guns which are very effective and non lethal yet not used often enough such as in a case where a person is holding a knife. One shooting was of a disabled man in a wheelchair holding a knife!!! Seriously, was this man going to chase them????
For the officers safety yes they should carry weapons because the criminals do and there are many who are armed and dangerous.
Let's just make sure our officers use appropriate force, have proper training and are psychologically fit for their jobs not just at the time of hire but ongoing.
Not sure about other Towns,but most likely they are too!
Statepolice have been armed with the Army-issue Pistol for ages!
But anyway, I dont believe in the death penalty in a country like England, cause its a minor occurence, what I mean by that, it doesnt happen everyday, or is out of hand.
Usually when someone goes and shoots someone, its usually not done for nothing, its usually over money,
and that usually means, the person is defrauded once again, or money stolen from him, or his life stuffed up, and the other one looks like the nice guy all the time.
So, this leads to bitteness and revenge, cause he cant control his emotions. Its just human nature, so I dont like the death penalty brought in to hang the guy cause he was done in by someone who lives the high life, while manufacturing and stuffing other peoples lives up.
Thats just my opinion.
