There have been a few 'soundings' by the Police Federation over the years and thus far the figures maintain a large majority of serving officers who would prefer not to be armed.
Well have the public that pays for the police been asked? I personally dont understand the point.
In Finland every patrol officer is armed and for the past twenty years they have been required to be also in very good physical condition.

Dont mess with the Finnish police.
