"Wait a minute here... Are you trying to tell me that if a robbery goes bad and an armed robber is holding a store owner hostage, UK police are going to send in guys with Tasers and dogs? Bullshit! They're going to use the same tactics and the same weaponry cops everywhere would use in a similar situation."

Errr....excuse me. My eldest son is a member of a police Armed Response Unit and has been for years. I think I know rather more about the tactics the police in the UK use than you do. They don't use shotguns. They use semi-automatics and tasars and, in special situations may carry hand guns - but tasars arenow the main weapon. Whenever possible dogs are sent in first. During several years in the force my lad has never yet had to shoot anyone with anything other than a tasar. This is the UK we're talking about not the gun-crazy wild west.
