Was in McAG this afternoon with Mrs J2J,surprised to see two offices with what looked like machine guns patrolling around,mind you all the kids loved it.

Left politicians hate this but it's great to see.
I believe all Police officers should bear a side arm whether they like it or not.
Many fear using one would see them be thrown to the wolves ,if things go tits up. |  |

It's a difficult one for the layman to answer tbh,personally I'd leave the decision to those that know best ie the people on the front line, but I must admit in these uncertain times it was reassuring to see. | | | |

No!! Police Officers should not carry guns as standard. Otherwise we are just the same as the US. Keep the weapons in the hands of the professionals. |  |

I and Mrs Mute were there too, did we acknowledge each other or was it another Jack I said hello to? Yes , I found it quite reassuring too. It was a nice touch by one of the armed police officers to smile at everyone and say hello, it was a little like being at an airport with the police carrying guns . |  | | |

The reason they are not routinely armed is twofold....
Police federation would rather not have this &
The police top hierarchy are afraid of an arms race with the criminal fraternity if they do.
I agree, however, I do feel that the number of specialist firearms officers should be increased. |  |

Armed police won't prevent a suicide bomber. The first cop or security guard to search a nutter with an explosive belt is going to be blown up along with many others | | | |

I always feel very safe when in America as I know there is likely somebody close by with a gun, whether it be a police officer or a trained citizen.
I feel the same way when in Piccadilly Station and the other places I've witnessed armed police patrolling. |  |
