even carry a firearm. I think it's something like 2500 licensed officers out of around 34,000 officers for London.

They do have what's known as "armed response units" and those units are specially trained.

Such a different concept of the use of firearms than in the U.S.

Exe-military make bad cops.

Bullies make bad cops.

The statistics compared to existing similar societies is the overwhelming proof.

I haven't seen any estimates of how many Iranians have been killed during this Israeli-US attack.

Allegedly the US has lost 6? 6? Still? Something tells me there has been more, but would we get the truth from this kleptocratic administration?

Had many guns on him and murdered .....
Raped the housewife as soon as the door...
Prices are soaring !!
Not at night..Never !

Like we live in an Abusive reality..constantly...consistantly..

Don't you dare go to....

HYPER ALERT...DANGER !!!
