As murder rate climbs, Chicago mayor makes ‘values’ appeal

And now the British have excessive gun control.

Great, let's repeal that?

  What "expanded?"  The police here in America have been armed since waaaaaaaaay before I was born.  Even Andy of Mayberry had a gun. 
I don't care what you're hiding.
Just DON'T let it out of the cage when I'm in the same room!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

English police are not, normally, armed (about 5-10% of them are authorized to be armed, according to the police union there).

As compared to that, having everyone be armed would be expanded police authority.

Arm them with spitballs.  Is that OK?      I don't care what the ***** Bobbies do.   
The Brits have plenty of problems with lots more than just their semia-armed Bobbies. 
I say leave 'em alone and see how long it takes for the UK to sink into the North Sea.
