Terrorist will die FAST

Perhaps its time our government remind themselves of the ‘Fourth Principle’ by Sir Robert Thompson.

We don’t need armed police and our government know this but it adds to public paranoia and fear and gives us that false sense of security as well as satisfying us all that something is being done.

How would you have stopped the guy mowing down the public in France without a gun DR?

Yep that's atleast thirteen terror plots in around two years that they've stopped now.We are lucky to have MI5 and our Counter Terrorism Units.

You have been keeping an eye on him for weeks and notice he has bought a van and is checking out the promenade on many visits and so you arrest him before he gets in the van.

We would have got that bastard way before he got to commit his crimes. The French need to take tips.

Are you going to post officers everywhere in every town 24/7?... Because that's what it would take.

I thought there wasn't a threat and this was all dreamed up by the government to create paranoia I've said many times it would actually be impossible to stop a terrorist action as they can blow themselves up anywhere, anytime but at least it might be possible to prevent futher deaths if the terrorist is using a vehicle or a gun by taking him out if some police are armed

Both the gendarmerie and the municipal police have a choice of carrying arms and in big cities most of them are expected to.

A visible armed police force won’t or at least shouldn’t settle the nerves of the anxious public because when you look at it logically, no amount of armed police are going to stop someone walking down any high street or through any busy shopping center and blowing themselves up. The chances are, they will kill as many police officers as possible.

Where did I say it isn't paranoia? We have an armed response that would be there in minutes, as attacks are so random unless you want the whole force armed what is the point of a handful wandering around?

13 were foiled due to intelligence not any visual deterrent though, if we can prevent terrorism without armed officers on parade on our streets what is the case for having them?...

What is the case for not?

I don't see a problem with having armed officers on our streets - it shows we mean business. Most countries in Europe do - with all these murdering religous nutters about it has become a necessity. We don't know what innocent lives might be saved by doing so. It's about being prepared for any situation and saving lives.

Besides with all those hate-filled terrorists out there with guns, bombs and god knows what else I would much prefer the good guys were suitably armed as well.

Suddenly Europe is de rigueur?

We obviously don't need them, they would take valuable funds away from counter terrorist intelligence units as well as being ineffective unless the incident happened right in front of them.
