Luckily we don't need them yet, however I would feel safer if I had an a option of a taser. I gun crime is on the up, but we have very few handgun crimes But I imagine in the future we will need to arm officers. Hopefully not in my lifetime.

I love hot fuzz. So much. The fence chasing hit is pretty realistic. As Danny of course. And I have chased a swan for the best part of an hour.

The reason I joined the police is because when I started karate I had to swear an oath to protect those less able to defend themselves. (I joined a samurai Buddhist school of karate.) I used to collect samurai swords, recondition them and sell them on. But I had one I loved, and have been working on for years.

I went through a lot of problems as a kid and was homeless for a while. The day I applies to join the police all I had in the world, my mum had thrown out. All I saved was my guitar, my sword and a small bag of clothes. It strick me as I was standing in the dark that all I really had was a sword and an oath.

Drive on the right! Joke, normally the yanks are very respectful and ask first or ate very cautious. I suppose we can be strict with arresting people for public order offences. If you say anything, do anything, display any sign that is offensive, harassing, alarming or distressing it can be an offence under the public order act. A lot of tourists have a drink and then shout "freedom of speech' after they get arrested for a drunken tirade of abuse.
