| Met AFOs handing in their authorities 09:29 - Sep 15 with 2226 views | onehunglow | After the Chief and Khan chucking them under the bus over the recent shooting of a black man and the predictable rumpus,who can blame them. Many are being deployed from all over the Uk for Queens funeral then many are considering simply refusing to be Firearms Officers. This is significant news that is being kept deep underneath the carpet. If we do not have police officers who are armed to deal with armed criminals,it will be bad news for the public. Sadly.Met Commissioners stopped being police officers years ago and are not pitiful caricatures . |  |

If any staff dare raise concerns they are vilified. This kind of thing has been going on in the NHS for years. They have spent millions paying out hush money to stop whistleblowers who all have to sign an NDA before they get their money. In itself its criminal. SHUHB has had another rise in complaints of negligence apparently, I was on the verge of taking them to court. If all these AFO's do give up their licenses then we'll see the army at airports and responding to terrorist incidents, that or nobody at all. |  |

The army being deployed to airports is neither here or there, in terms of terrorist incidents depending on what type it is likely the SAS could potentially be involved anyway. The number of incidents at airports / terrorist incidents is minimal compared to the number of calls associated with everyday policing, however they have the scope to be huge jobs. The biggest issue/threat comes from a lack of armed police to attend calls associated with everyday policing whether that is organised gangs carrying weapons, drug dealers even domestics, any call involving a knife machette etc will usually necessitate an armed deployment. |  | |  |

It is really not worth the hassle. It is fact,if they use firearm and victim is black all manner of hate is immediately released on to the street. Times ten in London with Sadie Khan. This is a direct result of Teresa May and introducing PCCs thus politicking police operations . Khan does not want to upset the Black community down there The public are at risk from those who carry guns. They cannot be stopped by a friendly number 1 hand signal . |  |

Not on the side of criminals just not wanting to be seen supporting police when they have to do what they have to and that is to eliminate danger from the streets. We see black communities all turn out in force whenever this stuff happens . They say they want to stop drug gang turf wars. It’s their problem |  |

They say they want to stop drug gang turf wars but when the police come asking for help they get told to eff off. Then, when the police do something the whole community turns out to complain, they all seem to back the drug gangs even if indirectly. |  |

You are stuck in 1973. You really do need to move on. This is your King Charles, this week, thanking Michelle O’Neill for her kind words about the Queen. You are out of step. This is where the rest of us are in the year 2022. I hope you enjoy it. |  |

If the lad in question here was armed then things take on a different perspective but it transpired he had no firearm. Firearms officers should not be shooting dead an unarmed person in the streets in the UK. I have sympathy that they’ve got an extremely tough job to do and they have to make tough judgment calls in the blink of an eye but there has to be accountability when it goes pear shaped. |  | |  |

You've not been in that situation so you cannot comment. It's like a replica firearm,you reckon you can notice the difference ? Anything at all can be lethal weapon of offence that can kill. Best ,if requested to stop by Police do just that. |  |

You don’t play centre mid for the Swans but you’re not short of an opinion of Grimes shortcomings, which is still fair enough though in my view. Not having experience of something does not disqualify anyone from being able to comment on it. My personal opinion remains that if an unarmed person is shot dead, something has gone wrong and it need to be investigated and dealt with. Having a replica, a water pistol a spud gun or anything resembling a gun would make them a viable threat in a dynamic situation. I’m basing my view solely on the fact that, to the best of my knowledge, this lad had nothing on his person to pose a threat. If that turns out to be different I’ll change my view. |  | |  |

You dont seem to understand that the police are public servants who have to be answerable to the public for their actions. If you dont accept that then you should not be a police officer. Simple. The police are not above the law. |  |
