Should coppers carry guns?

If you knew the punishment would be 20 yrs in prison just for house breaking and murder for life until you die etc, would you do it? harsh I know but it's sending out the message?

Who pays for that then.????

Stupid comment .
We all know who pays for things in this country.
Building a few hundred more jails provides work for those who right now are not working .
It's a drop in the ocean for the peace of mind it provides for locking away a bunch of criminals .
Regarding the logistics. These days- prisons are not built like they used to be built in Victorian times. They now 'go up' very very quickly.
Dont look at the negatives- just look at the positives.
The builders get work
The staff get work
The A$$oles get locked away.
Catering firms get contracts
Builders supplies get business.
Lots of other things too.
But- real good thing is- The SCROTES who make many peoples lives a misery- get banged up for a long time . time enoughj for them to think about it .

Lets stop pussyfooting about this issue.
Shoot the barstewards or get them locked up for a very long time.
they dont care about decent people- why oh why should we care about them ?.

That's the only sensible statement you've made.

Police in Ulster have always carried guns it didn't stop hundreds of them getting killed did it.

Do we really want live in a uncivilised country?

I would say a country where the citizens can't be trusted to own guns isn't civilised.
