A man shot dead by police at a village near Sevenoaks in Kent had been reported wielding an Uzi-type sub-machine gun, the police watchdog said on
Sunday.
Wait a minute--are you saying "gun control" in the UK doesn't stop criminals from getting guns?
Unarmed Kent Police officers went to Stansted village on Saturday morning in response to a call that a man was threatening a member of the public, the Independent Police Complaints Commission said.
So if a member of the public's life is being threatened, someone who is prohibited by law from protecting himself, that's not important enough to send someone 'round capable of giving him the protection he's denied?
Two armed response units joined the officers and challenged the man, who was white and aged around 40.
But once "The Only Ones" feel threatened, the means of defense are made available?
Police then shot the man two times and he died at the scene.
And the only thing that will stop an armed threat is another man on the scene who is also armed?
He is not thought to have held a firearms licence or to have been a member of a registered gun club.
I repeat my first question...
