Does Belgium have our Constitution?

If the answer to that question is no, then we've officially ended this discussion. Thank you for flying with USMB and have a pleasant day at your destination.

It's quite normal for certain police units in Euro countries to be armed with sub-machine guns, especially at train stations.

Just wondering. Libs always praise Belgium as such a gun free low crime fantasyland. And their cops are rolling around in tanks wearing Camo with machine guns. Hmmm.
