	Policing in the United Kingdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The new Metropolitan Police, founded on September 29, was depersonalised, bureaucratic and hierarchical, with the new police constables instructed to prevent crime and pursue offenders.
		However in contrast to the military gendarmerie forces of continental Europe, the British police, partly to counter public fears and objections concerning armed enforcers, were clearly civilian and their armament was initially limited to the truncheon.
		Unlike the police in most other countries, the British police are not routinely armed, except in Northern Ireland, at airports, nuclear facilities, and on some protection duties.

		Federal police agencies are responsible for the enforcement of federal laws in countries with a federal constitution.
		That is, the RCMP is a police force that operates in the seemingly wild frontier, but operates under the behest of a central, if somewhat removed, bureaucratic authority back in the settled regions.

	Gun Control: A Realistic Assessment
		Eventually police forces were established to augment citizen self-protection by systematic patrol to deter crime and to detect and apprehend criminals if a crime occurs.
		Even if all 500,000 American police officers were assigned to patrol they could not protect 240 million citizens from upwards of 10 million criminals who enjoy the luxury of deciding when and where to strike.
		A basic dictum of police and martial arts training is that even a trained professional should never attack a gun-armed assailant unless convinced that he is about to shoot (in which case there is nothing to lose).

		The British government is promoting the expansion into every secondary school of the Ministry of Defense cadets youth programs as a veritable panacea for all the issues confronting young people today -- and just incidentally as a possible answer to improving military recruiting.
		But because of the cadets' connection to the grown-up military, which prohibits service by known gays and lesbians, all those excellent benefits are denied to gay and lesbian youth -- while both sexual minority youth and their heterosexual peers receive a powerful message that gays and lesbians are second-class citizens.
		The Conservatives are pleased to have the proposed cadets expansion as an element of their campaign platform; Prime Minister John Major is touting the idea almost as heartily as Defense Secretary Michael Portillo.
