Petition Action

Firearms for all policemen on duty or patrol when on the streets or at potentially violent events.

Additional Information

I would like to see armed policemen at any big event that is likely or may have a history with violence to be present.I'm sure it would stop a lot of people committing acts of criminality.It's unfair and high time our government stop putting our ever brave police officers in line of danger and waiting for a firearms unit to arrive.A lot of harm could happen before the Calvary comes to the rescue.
The times are changing and we do have to change with it.Other countries arm all their policemen so why can't we.
