Ft Collins, CO –-(Ammoland.com)- No support for heroes in the UK!
The formal inquest into the murderous attack on the English Parliament in March of 2017, by a fanatical, AA-shouting [allahu akbar] Islamic jihadi, who stabbed to death unarmed Police Constable, Keith Palmer, has finally been released.
Other police constables present, and equipped only with batons and CS spray, all ran away, leaving PC Palmer to be attacked and stabbed to death.
UK’s vaunted “armed police” were “nowhere to be seen.”
“For 46 minutes, there were no signs of the ‘roving firearms squad’ anywhere near the open Carriage Gates into New Palace Yard, where PC Palmer was murdered.”
“Palmer’s sisters, Angela Clark and Michelle Palmer, were extremely distressed that no one from the Metropolitan police had let them know there was an issue surrounding the absence of armed officers in place to protect their brother.”
Palmer was doomed to die the death of a selfless hero, by an inept department, government, and nation that deliberately decided to deny him the routine possession of a service pistol and the training in how to use it to effectively shoot-down crazed Muslim madmen intent on slaying as many innocents as possible by means of a moving car and a large knife.
England’s ingrained, visceral hatred of guns and illogical contempt for armed citizens and even armed law enforcement officers made PC Palmer’s barbarous murder inevitable.
UK’s manifestly cowardly politicians, whose administrative and legislative malfeasance were the direct cause of Palmer’s murder, now continue to dither over new anti-knife legislation.
Like it or not, in our increasingly dangerous world, Goodness and Decency must be weaponized, or accept extinction.
Cancerous evil aggressively metastasizes in the presence of the helpless/defenseless, disarmed by fearful fools.
“A return to First Principles in a Republic is sometimes caused by simple virtues of a single man. His good example has such an influence that the good men strive to imitate him, and the wicked are ashamed to lead a life so contrary to his example. Before all else, be armed!” ~ Niccolo Machiavelli

England, or Great Britain, whichever is the correct term is a mess, possibly an insoluble mess at that.
If the terrorist was armed with a knife, why did the other constables, who had batons and CS, run away???
Eleven minutes(time for cops to show up)or 1.1 seconds (a slow 9mm ) which do you like better?

You get the kind of government you deserve. Unfortunately it takes many undeserving, but complacent along with them .
Complacency kills .
Mindboggling that anti2nd amendment groups want to mimic this country’s style of gun control.
As Steve P Wenger says, there’s a reason god out those people on an island.
British “civility” stands no chance against the onslaught of Islamic terrorist invasion. If they don’t do something soon it is all over for their nation. If fact it already may be. The British we’re once feared warriors, they have be turned into sniveling cowards by political correctness.
Let us, and more importantly the British people remember his superior, the absolute coward,who witnessed the stabbing and DID NOTHINGTO STOP IT!!!!! How can the rank and file officers of the department continue to work for a coward like that? How can the people of London continue to trust his “amazing leadership”?
The Poms still work with the class system of the middle ages.
So the “plebes” mean nothing to the lords etc who run the country.
This mentality starts at the top with the royal family and works it’s way down.
The only anomaly in this hatred of the masses seems to be prince Harry and his Brother William.
Not that different from here.
amazing leadership, sounds like the broward dude who is still wearing a sheriff’s badge in fla
Mankind has a 60,000 year history of violence. Removing one method of killing is not going to stop that history. It has been proven world wide. When will people wake up and realize we are natural born killers and need protection for ourselves.
us d-rats are working overtime to replicate the european s-holes they admire so much
Coming soon to an “Urban Utopia” in the US soon…
Notalima: Coming? It has been here for a while. Look at the killing sprees that have already happened in Fl and LA. Also, the woman in OK who was nearly decapitated. Look at Mich where SOME people are trying their hardest to install the use of the BARBARIC sharia law which stems from the second korran and hadiths. There are many more not covered by the PRESSTITUE “msm” organizations.
Laddyboy: I should have been more clear. I was speaking about the push to disarm police officers.
I thought so, too, but Laddy’s comment IS valid. Here, the difference is that the coppers are overarmed and overamped, are far too quick to shoot first and let their union supes sort it out, often with false “evidence”. More and more, our coppers are armed and trained as of they were military, often even Special Forces grade. And to help assure they make it home after their shift, they work hard to disarm the REAL bulwark against violence and lawlessness: WE the people, armed and skilled, are mostly not welcome here.
Of course, in JollyAuld, neither the constables nor the people may go about armed, thus those of evil intent WILL carry the day. Here, at least, if the ship hits the span, we’ve well beyond a hudnred millions of us armed and reasonably skilled. Arms have been stripped from the Brits for so long most haven’t a clue what to do with one if they even COULD find one. And, into the bargain, are downright fearful of the things, wretches as they are.
Mike, self-preservation and cowardice – fear of injury and death.
Notalima, some of the anti-rights people have expressed their desire to disarm the police. When NYS passed their “SAFE” Act a couple of years ago, the initial draft did not exempt police and federal agencies from it. The police demanded that they be exempted and the unconstitutional law was rewritten and signed by the governor. So much for Democrats belief in a classless, egalitarian society.
When the thin blue line stops doing their job because they are afraid of the life long repercussions, the people will go after the politicians that instituted these insane policies. I mean how stupid can you be. You let un-vetted migrants into your country who may or may not be psychotic criminals and when they start killing your citizens and the police can do nothing well then you will have a break down in society and eventually anarchy. The next evolution would be a revolt of the citizens against the stupidity of the elected officials. That is unless everybody in great Britain got a permanent case of the stupids.
