[Livia]

More coppers than you realise are armed already, which is a shame; they are not supposed to be a a militia, but society is forcing their hand. Tragically, we had the usual knee-jerk reaction after Dunblane and guns were banned so that even our Olympic shooting team had to train abroad. However, criminals seem to have no problem getting guns. So... proper sportsman are not allowed firearms and the only two sections of society in possession of guns is the police and the criminals. If you're going to have guns banned, it's got to be a proper ban. If you're found to be in possession of a firearm, life imprisonment, no parole.
