Do not Leave your weapons at home.
Do not forget your Kevlar vest.
Do not think that the suspects will remain calm and not stab you to death..
Do not think that your handcuffs are best left at home in your bedroom.


Apperently the Police didn't get that memo though.

What would they have done if a suspect was heavily armed?

Talk them out of it?

While I can see the logic of not wanting to compromise forensic evidence that may have been on the suspects, you have to draw the safety line somewhere.

That was stupid.

Haven't you been briefed on standard British Police procedure? They don't need armor or weapons!

Yes...going that route was stupid. On the other hand, it's not our business. We live in the U.S. We don't like it if someone sticks their nose in our internal police operating procedure, why again are we judging the British?

I'm not judging british police procedure at all.

I'm judging the sanity of a group of people who knowingly walk into a potentially dangerous situation completely unarmed.
