Armed Police Act
Drafted by:CTALNH

OBSERVING The recent rise of organised crime and violent crime.

REALIZING That the police should be ready to handle situations like this 24/7.

MANDATES That every police officer should carry a fully automatic weapon and bulletproof vests.

Hereby passes the Armed Police Act.

Ideas?

Why not give the funding for bullet proof vest and automatic weapons. Police Officers have common sense and can decide when they need to use these.

Nay we will ever achieve the level of Israel with that thinking
