Only the police should have guns, eh?

Britain's crime minister has bag stolen at police conference


LONDON, Sept 12 (Reuters) - Britain's police and crime minister had her bag stolen at a conference for senior and midranking police officers where she spoke about the growing problem of theft and shoplifting, a government official said on Thursday.

What does this have to do with cops and guns? Says a 56 year old man arrested. I'm missing the crooked cop angle

Also missing the gun angle

I'm with Lobo. Where's the "only the police should have guns" part of this story?

Alright,...I thought this would be obvious.

Apparently this was a gathering only of "trustworthy" police persons and their managers in government. Not even line officers, but senior and middle ranking veterans, whom it is supposed have been proven to be non-criminals themselves.

And yet, thievery occurred amongst them by one of their own number.

Must I lay out the potential consequences of surrendering (as our libtard co-habitators on this planet suggest is required) our access to the weaponry necessary to resist the types of criminals who pursue that unchecked power and ensconce themselves within that community?

I'm not claiming police are inherently bad. I'm reminding y'all that the inherently bad are attracted to police power. While the police seek to keep such people out,...they are never completely successful,...and this is an example.

Where does it day it was a cop? I am saying it was not however even when you have a gathering of librarians you have people there who are not. Custodians, passerby, service workers etc. All it says is a 56yr old man.

I am not and will not ever advocate for people to give up their rights I just don't think we should resort to click bait and that is what this is absent evidence it was due to what the title indicates

Police and government administrators are keenly aware of how sensitive the public is to the idea of their guardians being morally compromised. Thusly, they have massive motivation to very specifically mention and show that the suspect is not one of themselves. And I have faith that if that was the case, they have been VERY prominently pointing that out. But instead, they merely indicate a suspect was identified,...NOT a suspect outside of the group attending. That screams rather loudly to me that the suspect is indeed among them.
