SRU cant patrol

[Haarek]

I believe it is OK if the president or someone with authority over the SRU tells them they should patrol. 
Evocity is riddled with crime, and if the president feels the need to have SRU out in the streets to prevent crime I don't see how that is bad. 

Many butthurt people like to make stupid complaints about everything you do, as long as you read the rules and know what is right and wrong you should ignore them unless they are a teacher or whatever else.

Special response units doesnt run around and doing the cops job. Their role is to take action in major raids, or other big conflicts that goes beyond, what a Cop is suited for.. IMO.

If I'm not mistaken; that is a normal officer with an MP5, not SWAT or someone from a tactical group.

In the UK we do not have normal officers with fire arms

Norway has been mentioned multiple times in foreign articles about how our officers don't even carry guns, and how low our kill- and shots fired rate is, but we've had armed officers this summer because of an increased threat-level.

I'm aware of that british police-officers do not really carry firearms either, but it's something that they do in special cases; as with our police. 
That officer in the video appears to be a normal police-officer, and not someone from a Special Response Unit; but I could be wrong here.

My point here is that Special Response Units don't really stand around on the street all willy-nilly. They are a response unit as the name would suggest; and the same goes for the SRU group on this server. They are the equivalent of SWAT and their task is assist with high-risk situations, not looking out for speeders and jaywalkers.

not looking out for speeders and jaywalkers.

No one said they should be.
Just because a SRU is patrolling doesn't mean they're doing the same job as a police officer.

If a SRU was to see something while they're on patrol they can call the police to investigate the situation.
It just puts more eyes and ears on the street.

It's like if a police officer sees a weapon they call the SRU, so if a SRU saw something minor they would radio the police to look into it.

We enforced unwritten rules but did not punish people for it unless you straight up ignored staff instructions. Now the reason why the team would rather not have SRU patrol is simply because the idea of the role is to be a SWAT-like division without being called SWAT.

SWAT is a rare sight to say the least, however, an armed officer isn't.

We enforced unwritten rules

What I found odd was we were told that the unwritten rules have now been included in the rules (there's a post somewhere regarding it), but the 'SRU can't patrol' rule was not added.

In regards to the previous post involving the British Police Officer with the MP5, he is a regular police officer in the sense that he has the same powers as every Tom, Dick 'n' Harry on the bob.

He is different to the causual officer because he is trained on how to use a firearm.

It's difficult to say whether or not he is part of the British Police's version of America's "SWAT" which is called SO19, as he may well be. Those type of officers do not patrol as they are Strictly an armed Response and roll up like this: https://www.google.com/search?q=co19&biw...jPvKB_M%3A

Currently due to the hightened security threat, officer's in high threat area's around the country such as various parts of London and other places like Windsor Castle, have these guys patrolling the streets with firearms but not in full combat uniform.

So if on the server the President felt that it was necessary to put the SRU on patrol then that would be more to the point of realism however the SRU player model is them dressed up ready to party so i can see how there is much debate on the subject.
