"If it helps to keep us that bit safer I'm all for it." Yeah i tend to think that way,or am i just agreeing with you because your hot? hmm | |||
"operation temperer. slowly getting the public used to an armed presence on our streets? England and wales have cut numbers of police officers in recent years by somewhere in the region of 20000. now, we need to put military on our streets to 'free up police officers' it feels very much like part of a longer game to get the general public used to, even supporting putting armed men and women on the streets. i for one dont want them." isn't this just a bi product of the fact our police are on the whole not armed if every police officer was trained and armed i very much doubt if we would be using military personal . man has a suicide vest on the easiest way to stop him detonating that is a double tap to the head . like i saw a bi product of a unarmed police force is you can not use lethal force to save lives . | |||

" Nah, not quite true. Police in America are armed and trained. And yet following 9/11 there were military personnel all over the place. Not to mention the fact that the militarization of police in the US is a growing trend, and some would say a growing problem. Is it fixing anything? I don't think so, and the stats don't support the idea that it's made anyone safer (in fact, it might make people less safe, depending on what numbers you analyse). Personally, I don't think it has anything to do with making people safer. If someone wants to become a suicide bomber there is little anyone can do to stop them from killing people. I think it's all about deniability. Imagine what people would say if another attack were to happen and the government hadn't put more security forces on the ground...hmmmm... | |||

"The chances of an armed army guy or otherwise being in the right place at the right time to shoot to stop a terrorist is negligible - more chance of an innocent passerby getting fragged by accident than anything. It seems to me like 'we must be seen to be doing something - this is something" I sound cynical but I don't think it will change anything. More searches of bags and stuff is needed I think. We can all get used to delays for that. " Exactly this. The safety they bring is negligible. The danger they pose is vast. I'm all for increased security but not at the cost of freedoms and not in the form of theatre. | |||

" i agree, the chances of an armed officer being in the right place at the right time, with line of sight and enough warning to take an effective shot is damn near zero....do the bombers kind of announce they're about to blow up and give folk fair warning? i'd think they'd do it quietly. if i had a device i could set it off without being shot i'm sure. | |||

" soldiers with guns shooting the bad guy just in time and keeping everyone safe? you think that'll happen? i doubt that very very much. i dare say stories of attacks being averted will crop up in the media though, just to keep up the illusion that it's an effective measure. and close what you will, people will still meet and communicate and plan in other places and using other means (i would) it won't stop anything. | |||

"those callous murdering wankers are trying to destroy with their Draconian & hatred ways" "Hear hear. I hate it. They refuse to integrate ..." Who are 'they' exactly? The bomber was a British citizen born here, raised here and by all accounts, until fairly recently, an integrated citizen. Who is this 'they'? The bomber was a terrorist, that's it. His religion, beliefs and all other things aren't really important, I cannot remember us deporting Catholics after the IRA bomb the UK on more than one occasion. This is a horrible person who wanted to kill people to cause tears is society for his own disillusioned reasons. We must all come together, not try and find reasons to divide even further. | |||

When that nice security guy looks in your waitrose bag and says 'sorry sir, you can't come in with a gun' , I'd like some armed response to be closer. I would support training many more armed police officers. Not a solution by any means, but I think it would help. | |||

" The "They" in this context sounds like the government, the police and the media. This and all other attacks are all being spun so as to blame Muslims in general. This only serves to stir up racial hatred towards other Muslims in the UK, making it easier for these organizations to recruit and adding fuelling their hatred of the west. It seems that the lessons we learnt from the 1970s when we had the IRA bombs going off on a regular basis have been forgotten. We are playing into the hands of terrorism by giving terrorists the publicity and disruption that they want. Frankly if anyone needs to integrate, it's us who need to learn to integrate with the rest of the world and not try to force our ideas on other civilisations.

Quite the opposite, there were Muslims at the vigil in Manchester and they were welcomed, I didn't see them being outcast or blamed in anyway. The wider public are bright enough to know the difference between a Muslim and a Muslim extremist. Blaming "us" for lack of integration is nonsense and I don't see how domestic violence has got anything to do with this subject. The fact is a radicalised home grown Muslim decided to blow himself up to kill and maim innocent kids, yet you think that is our own fault? | |||

"The idea that armed officers cant save lives is absurd. I fully accept that you cant stop a suicide bomber, but the last couple of years across Europe has demonstrated that a terrorist is far more likely to drive a vehicle into a crowd. If the Police in Nice hadn't been armed and killed the nutter in the truck, he may have killed hundreds. " It's not as simple as that: True: European police have shot those such as the truck attackers; but by and large; The chance of an armed officer actually being somewhere at the time and place that an attack like Manchester happens is less than 1% The chance that he can actually clearly ID an attacker is less than 1% The chance that he can return fire with a clear sight line; with no danger of hitting someone else is less than 1% The chance that he will actually hit his target is between 1 and 10%. That means that the reality is that in 0.00001% of cases will an armed officer actually be effective. And you have to be a really expert marksman. That's like 1% of the potential population. Armed police do shoot quite a few people: but almost all are in static siege type,situations, or pre-planned operations, where they are completely,ready and prepared. The police who shot the Westminster knife attacker were top end bodyguard/ escort,officers; already on high alert, so they were already ready to go. FormNorthern Ireland tours;'we,did 6 months of intensive immersion training: even then , we seldom fired, and seldom were in a position to do so, even when directly attacked. And if fire was returned, we seldom got a " confirmed" hit. So armed police/army are in reality, not much good except as a deterrent; and the type of terrorist we face is not easily deterred, anyway. | |||

I stand by my theory of why places populated with high volumes of Muslims arn't targeted. You stand by yours. | |||
