And when you have 3 against 1, letting him chase you around for a while tires him out 3x faster than you, the longer it goes on, the safer everyone is! Most knifemen are people with mental problems who need help, not assassination.Actually, UK police are trained to disarm a knife wielding suspect. Things may not have been as they seemed. The UK wants voluntary cooperation instead of fear and force. I tihnk the UK model is better. It protects the people from quick tempered triggers.
UK police are of course armed, but usually only with battens, or the modern equivalent, which mean that police can't use excessive force even if they want to, a batton is almost useless for killing or causing serious injury. As long as everyone knows that then the police are safe, nobody is going to use a gun against them, so everyone can be relaxed and just play games. People who don't follow the rules don't tend to last long here.
