A lot of people can own a gun in the U.S. Felons and lunatics can not. There are restrictions on carrying a gun. There are restrictions on concealed weapons. A difference exists between owning and carrying a gun. The police in the US carry guns.
In the US we have a different history from the UK. We fought two wars against the UK. In our Revolutionary War, King George III made it illegal for the Colonists to own guns while he sold them to the Indians. The frontiersmen did not like the Indian massacres. They owned guns and were prepared when the British in Canada and West Florida started selling guns to the Indians in 1810. Vancouver, a British trader, sold guns to the Indians along the Pacific Coast. American settlers needed their own guns. The Indian Wars ended in 1892, Americans never gave up their guns. They needed them when Poncho Villa attacked from Mexico. America has not enjoyed the same internal peace as England. The last foreign attack England had came from Bonnie Prince Charlie.

Can a police officer carry a concealed weapon on an airplane?
Federal Officers, yes. Other jurisdictions depend on it being necessary for them to perform their duty, such as while escorting a prisoner on the aircraft. All weapons must be reported to the flight crew through the proper persons. As of 4 years ago a Police Officer could carry a concealed weapon on an airplane, but it was only if the Captain of that plane granted his permission (which they always did, but they were the final authority to grant/deny.)
