Some people believe that if the police force carries guns, it would encourage a higher level of violence in that society. To what extent do you agree or disagree？

Violence is an age-old problem in many parts of the world.Some

people

believe that Police

officers

carrying guns will signify a level of violence

while

others think it's the opposite.I believe that it's just used for defence and in case of emergencies.

To begin

with,not only do

people

who are in the defence system carry a rifle or gun but

also

many individuals purchase it for their own safety.

Officers

with equipment usually do not

use

them until they see any sign of danger or threat from any neighbouring countries or criminals .

For instance

,in ,India police

officers

just

use

them to treat criminals or robbers.Sometimes these criminals

use

higher weapons as means of committing a crime.In

such

,case

policemen

use

their guns as a mode of self-defence.

On the other hand

,

policemen

being armed may accidentally shoot a criminal

while

catching him and in doing so he may injure innocent citizens.Looking into

this

people

fear for their safety and think they should not be armed and try keeping a gun for themselves to prevent

such

situations.

Policemen

create an environment of violence by sometimes opening fire in public places where the crowd is not under control in doing so many

people

die.

For example

,during election times when

people

take out ,

rallys

Correct your spelling

really

large crowds are gathered in places and sometimes

this

leads to fighting between the opposition parties to stop

such

incidents

policemen

fire.

To conclude

,I believe Police

officers

should be armed to protect themselves and society in uncontrolled situations but it should not be misused.
