Being a Police Officer in the UK

Question:

How do you tell the difference between a British Police Officer an
Australian Police Officer and an American Police Officer?

Answer:

Pose the following question:

You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small
children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife comes
around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, raises
the knife, and charges. You are carrying a Glock .40, and you are an
expert shot. You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your
family.

What do you do?



UK POLICE OFFICERS Answer :

Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the
man look poor or oppressed?

Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
Could we run away?
What does my wife think?
What about the kids?
Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?
What does the law say about this situation?
Does the Glock have appropriate safety built into it?
Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does
this send to society and to my children?
Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me?
Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?
If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away
while he was stabbing me?
Should I call 999?
Why is this street so deserted? We need to raise taxes, have a paint
and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would
discourage such behaviour.
If I raise my gun and he turns and runs away, do I get blamed when he
falls over running away, knocks his head and kills himself?
If I shoot him, and lose the court case does he have the opportunity
to sue me, cost me my job, my credibility and I will lose my family
home?
