Hey guys,
I'm always interested in, for some reason, the differences between the US and the UK.
I was really surprised to learn (after the soldier hacking) that normal English Police don't carry guns? Do no criminals in the England have guns??
For reference, in the US, it's pretty easy for anyone over 18 to buy a gun, even while the gun laws do vary state by state. And the police pull their guns out on any occasion where they feel even remotely threatened. Also, the US police always seem to have a shotgun in the trunk of their car.
