I'm not holding my breath, but I'd hope more Americans who talk about "unarmed British police" are aware that those are municipal-level officers and that heavily armed soldiers are rarely far away...
the message being.... of course... is that security is a STATE function and not a community or individual one... which then leads into the notion of "law and order"...
...nations where the people are raised to see themselves as subjects of the state tend to be more orderly than those, like the USA, where people are raised to see themselves AS the state...
