Should the Police Carry Guns
Imagine this, you are having a splendid day with a cup of tea and then all of a sudden, raging officers come forward with guns, threatening you. Instead of protecting, the police are killing innocent people. In my opinion, the New Zealand Police should not carry guns.The news about the killing of George Floyd has gone viral around the world from an officer in America.
This shall not continue because of the amount of deaths by police brutality. But in New Zealand, since 1916 NZ police officers have shot and killed 40 people in the line of duty. I do not think the police need guns because it could cause accidental deaths, taxpayers will buy more guns and guns will scare the general public. Gun’s affect people so they can acquire guns and cause savagery and disturbance. It will notify the general public to inspire taxpayers to supply them.
Once again I believe that cops should not carry guns. For my first reason there have been a lot of accidental deaths due to little children finding guns. In America a toddler grabbed a handgun that he/she had found, and sadly they fatally shot themselves. There have been more than 73 deaths due to this same reason. We don’t want this to become the norm in New Zealand.
Other than this, there are many other reasons why cops should not have guns.
