Open petition: Arm all police officers with firearms
Created by Thomas Wiggins
Closes on
We call on the Government to ensure all police officers can carry firearms, not just authorised firearms officers.
We believe having all police officers carrying firearms would make police reaction to emergencies that currently require specialist firearm unit to respond reduces the emergency response time as wouldn't have to wait for these units all officers could respond potentially save more lives
