Petition Action

An Armed Police Force

Additional Information

We, the British people petition the government to review the routine arming of our police force, as a deterrent to criminals and members of the public who exhibit anti-social behaviour and a flagrant disregard of the authority that the police hold.

An armed officer will also be able to defend themselves better and provide them with greater confidence to deal with situations as they arise and so it is our opinion that all officers should be armed.
