    There ya go again, telling us how to live and if we were just like you, everything would be ok.

    The PM is protected 2/7/365 by people armed with automatic weapons and yes, it's a high level of security...

    ...higher level of security than you have a right to. Is his life worth more than yours?

    LOL. Where do you get your information? And people don’t eat pheasant or hare or waterfowl in the UK?

    https://myhomefarm.co.uk/hunting-on-public-footpaths-in-the-uk#:~:text=It is a criminal offence,Environmental Protection Team to investigate.

    Just like where I live, you must have permission from the landowner to hunt. You just have to buy them a beer or pay them or something. Same thing in the UK.

    So? Others do. Do the ones who do carry them because they lack diplomatic skills?

    LOL.

    You've made my day. This is entertaining!

    opinion noted and rejected as being as inane as your claim that most of the slaves in the USA were from Portugal

    Regular cops don't carry guns so they have to work on their diplomacy. Your bobbies should learn some, it might help in their social life

    LOL. Right. You have to pay for a toaster at Walmart. Thus it follows logically toasters are illegal.

    SMH.

    Why do they have to call the other cops with guns when there is a shooter then? Why can’t they just de-escalate the situation diplomatically?

    Yes some of our cops are morons. For sure. But irrelevant.

    yeah, and teaching CPR has its value but it's worthless in a severe bleeding injury. BTW given the rate of violence in the UK, I suspect you are going to need more than sweet talkers

    No point having a toaster if youve got no bread.

    If someone has a gun in UK then they are deemed as HIGHLY DANGEROUS and an immediate firearms division is sent out to apprehend. It happened to me once. They took my water pistol and my baseball bat!

    Where am I telling you how to live? I'm certainly not telling you to live just like us. My whole point is that our nations are fundamentally different and so aren't going to have the same answers to these questions. That is just a fact, for good or bad.

    No, as I said, it is because he is at significantly greater risk because of his job. It's a bit like military sites generally having more security than civilian ones.

    The US President has greater security than you're legally permitted to as well. You might be able to hire armed guards if you wanted but there are plenty of other security steps that are only options for certain people (closing roads, screening people they'll interact with, preventing people from entering normally public areas or, ironically, prohibiting guns from places they'd normally be permitted).

    That's the answer people always give when you ask them why they have been disarmed by the same people who felt no reason to give up their armed protection.

    I don't care how high the perceived risk is everyone should be entitled to defend themselves with the best tool possible.

    In the moment where a gun could help you to successfully defend yourself you are 100% at risk and vulnerable without it.

    Just because they have a government job doesn't mean their life is worth more than yours or your families.

    Any politician stripping you of your right to self-defense should have to live under the same conditions or they're nothing but blatant hypocrites

    But, I can carry a semi-automatic pistol with a 16 round magazine for self defense. While I'm not as as high a risk, I'm not at a zero risk and zero is exactly how many guns the anti-gunners want me to have and zero is the exact amount of protection you have.

    which is why if I could, i'd impose a law that limits political elites' guards to have only the same weapons that citizens in general can own
