UK vs. US Policing: To Arm or Not to Arm – Everything Law and Order Blog

UK vs. US Policing: Many people say that we should adopt the practices of having unarmed police officers in the USA since they have that approach in the UK (sorta but not really). Rather than just tell you ONLY my thoughts, I actually brought a 21 year veteran UK cop onto my live show in order to discuss the topic with him. You may be surprised by his take, which holds a bit more weight than some random SJW thinking they know better.

  1. Checking under cars for bombs wasn't just a Northern Ireland thing – many of us across the UK had to do this on a regular basis.

  2. The problem is if cops in UK shot somebody who was completely innocent, for caring wallet or soap like it happens in USA, somebody will ask chief of the police to resign. So chiefs of the police simply don't want to give guns to the cops.

  3. I can tell you this from close experience the school shootings are not from bullies the school shootings are from the effects of bullying once people get taunted enough they finally snap and they go out to harm the people that laughed at them everyday made them a joke out of the whole school things of that nature because back when I was in school I got picked on a lot and the teachers never wanted to do any damn thing but they didn't have a problem punishing me because I had to take things into my own hands to try to stop the s*** and because I was the fat kid I was automatically supposedly the bully but I was getting picked on because I was the fat kid by the jocks and s*** like that and yeah I did contemplate shooting up my school and we're talking years ago back when I was in middle School like I'm 32 now I ended up dropping out of school and I never got my I never graduated because of all the s*** that I had to put up with in school and honestly it was either drop out we're going to kill and spree but at least I chose I guess the healthier choice it affects me though and life's been a struggle without one but remember this bullies are not the School shooters the victims of the bullies are who the ends up being School shooters in most cases especially with Georgia tech he was picked on severely by many so really take that and consideration take that from a mind that thought the same way but I chose not to go through with that s***

  4. Because they can't rule America by the way we are not Africa and we definitely are multiple cultures preexisting alienated rights by threats of Africa is more than one lie even by Islam it is not standing laws and it will be severely called out even by way of London on standing laws they have a Marcy projects here too which they are trying to hide now under armed militias behind the scenes by the way Democrats are telling us they will disarm us too even in city defunding it isn't ok actually

  5. Plus African affairs actually can't take over the church too actually or even Israel which they are trying to to through illegal qanon and even terrorists causes BDS to formally more saying Americans will take Israel by force which they cannot either but we know the phobia they are claiming too by the way in more here too in native intermingling in our rights too

  6. Yeah but what on deregulation actually it does when squatters are involved to more in illegal transfers and currently it's the American militia style back in the underground is actually to more

  7. And the difference is not like that either they did and still do have guns but they are not going anywhere because the farmers and more are few and daring but even more some are still trying to get that but our farmers in EU do still have our arms and so does Britain by the way

  8. Hey Mike, you want to become the creditor, and not be the debtor… please go to YouTube… RADIANT CLONE…WE ALL HAVE LIMITLESS CREDIT… THAT DEBT IS THE CORPORATION'S DEBT, NOT OURS'…FO THE PAPER WORK, AND LEARN, THEIR GAME… OR DON'T, AND DIE A SLAVE… YOU SHOULD REALLY, DO THIS… IF NOT FOR YOU… DO IT FOR YOUR CHILDREN… YOU WANT TO BECOME A NATIONAL, NOT A U.S. CITIZEN… THE CORPORATION PUTS, THE U.S. BEFORE, POSSESSIONS… LIKE THE U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS…U.S. PUERTO RICO… THE U.S. TREASURY… THE U.S. POST OFFICE… OR THE U.S. CITIZEN… WANT TO DROP THE US CITIZENSHIP… BECOME A NATIONAL… THEN THE CORPORATION WILL, LEAVE YOU, AND YOUR FAMILY, ALONE… BUT YOU MUST DO THEIR PAPERWORK TOO… TRUST ME, WHEN I PRINT THIS… IT'S FACT NOT THEORY…….. SEMPER FI……

  9. Imagine, just for a moment, an unarmed cop working in an American inner city, even where the locals weren't armed. Upon attempting an arrest they'd catch a beat down from 30+ people.

    Incidentally the UK has 6x the property crime rate of the US and 8x the rate of rape.

    When citizens and cops are unable to respond effectively, crime blossoms.

  10. The British have never had the right to use arms for self defense? This man has never heard of the Magna Carta? Brainwashed is what he is.

  11. Unarmed cops. An abomination. Cant really protect the public cant protect themselves. People living in fantasy land. Brittain is idiotic playing with peoples lives

  12. someone in the comments said that London has more people per square mile then the US….. thats comparing 8million people to 350million…..

  13. In Spain, police officers have got guns, but they cannot use them unless the subject is using a gun too. For example, if you're a police officer and a person has a knife and you shoot to the floor, you will probably have problems. The SWAT isn't an exception, the can break into a house with rifles, but they cannot use them if they're not being shot.

  14. Its totally about gun control and culture, in Uk we have stricter gun laws and so that makes it more difficult for criminals to attack cops in that way its still very rare, our officers therefore don't need to be routinely armed although we do have armed response units, in USA any form of gun control is heavily opposed and the gun lobby is massive, and of course guns are easy and awash in US culture. The two narratives aren't the same, however we would much rather not have cops who end up having guns and the sort of overtly police state, with the situation that is happening in the USA.

  15. The UK knew to ban guns back in the 17/1800s as they got to dangerous, lots of people were getting shot and then there was highwaymen

  16. Just unsubscribed due to the inane “follow. Do it now”

    I like you Mike been subscribed a couple years but I cannot take that. Good luck

  17. I also think it's interesting how people reference the U.K. policing without guns but also don't mention how most countries in the world (including some of the most safe and some with the most strict gun laws) are routinely armed. Only like 6 countries don't give their police guns regularly (I believe they are the U.K., Ireland, Iceland, New Zealand, Maldives, and Norway). Yes, even countries with strict guns laws like Australia have police carry guns on them. Also, nations like Switzerland, Denmark, Sweden, Canada and what not (places where gun crime is rare) still have routinely armed police. So the idea of taking away the police's guns in the U.S., given our crime rate and the fact that almost all countries in the world arm their own police, is frankly ludicrous!

  18. Saw that you were an American cop, knew what was coming. Thought I would give you the benefit of the doubt.
    Mistake.
    Same old hate filled vitriolic diatribe.
    You don't even realise it. It all comes from 'my life is more important than yours, I fear the world, I need to kill them before they kill me'.
    Yawn. Grow up and grow a pair.

  19. Hah! I remember that about HBO and Cinemax! If a movie was on, you could be guaranteed it was 9n at least 4 or 5 times later that week.

    Plus, does anyone else remember, "Passion Cove"? I was 9……memories!

  20. I have no sympathy for an institution who are complicit in allowing rape gangs operate without seeing justice. If the police want to be armed then they first need to get their priorities in order before allowing a local bobby with a gun.

  21. It's not working. They really need to arm their cops. I've seen a video where it was to the point that the UK cop was having a criminals car towed. The bad guy came up beat up the cop that was there and told the tow operator he'd better put the car back and he did. He beat the cop up some more and drove off. Over here he'd been shot. More guns, less crime.

  22. As soon as he said that 2 officers let alone female officers have passed away due to a gang war and they were unarmed immedetly i started tearing up, at this point just arm all the officers and they can start protecting themselves and others as needed

  23. as someone from the UK our police are a joke, they just grab kids with 10 bags or maybe grab a tiny gang that have 1 shotgun while, there are still tons of guns on the streets its just only the criminals can get them so it gives the allusion there isn't many but there are loads especially revolvers and even 9 mm's are everywhere and shotguns and mac 10 have been around for a long time and get smuggled in a ton, AK's to anything you want tbh could be ordered…if your a criminal

  24. You get threatened with a firearm here and you have to wait for control to send an armed response vehicle to you, which takes a good 6 minutes usually. So you just sit around and wait, and hope they don't shoot you in the meantime. Sounds safe, doesn't it?

  25. The problem is if cops in UK shot somebody who was completely innocent, for caring wallet or soap like it happens in USA, somebody will ask chief of the police to resign. So chiefs of the police simply don't want to give guns to the cops.

  26. In Spain, police officers have got guns, but they cannot use them unless the subject is using a gun too. For example, if you're a police officer and a person has a knife and you shoot to the floor, you will probably have problems. The SWAT isn't an exception, the can break into a house with rifles, but they cannot use them if they're not being shot.
