    In addition, most of the London police do not carry fire arms. Maybe it is a good idea keep away from countries like that.

    I visited Paris for the first time this spring. Its a beautiful city and I shutter to think of what can happen to people that don't admit that there is evil in the world that needs to be confronted. Use your pen for sure but back it up with semi-automatic when the need arises

    That's right. The only ones you can count on having guns, are the Gendarmes. They, by definition, are armed. ("Gentlemen at Arms.")

    Well, they provide better targets than civilians. Perhaps the French should put bullseyes on police uniforms to protect others, and it is so much more French than guns.

    I wonder if they will change their stance on this matter in light of the events of the past few days?

    What good is a lawful person without a gun? I call them potential victims. [BIG Smiley Face]

    STOP! Or I'll yell STOP again. What good is a cop without a gun. Here we call them meter maids.

    Stupid...but par for the course in that European utopian cess pool of feel good socialism and tolerance for everything. Big fat duh. I can't imagine choosing to be defenseless, especially a cop. Up is down.

    I heard it is an individual officer's choice to carry a gun. To be an officer and not carry a weapon is unbelievably courageous or stupid depending on how it is looked at.
