There was a time in Britain where the police never carried guns and neither did the crooks. Simply because if you were caught with a weapon while committing a crime you did major time in the slammer. Which is exactly how it should be, especially as it seems the police are not disciplined enough to have weapons. There was a case in Baltimore where the police shot an off duty policeman - they fired forty shots!
