The home secretary backed police and ordered a review of armed units after officers protested over a murder charge


Background on this for non-UK people -

  • Black guy shot by armed policeman whilst sitting in his own car.

  • Policeman arrested for murder, released on bail.

  • Last weekend armed police ‘strike’ by dropping their weapons because one of their own has been charged with murder

As per usual the victim is being forgotten in all of this while it turns into a massively corrupt political game.

    Thanks again for the further into :) and imagine my surprise at learning that even without guns, cops are still bastards.
