I think non-militarized cops, so most non-American ones, are not that bad and are generally more decent people than militarized cops. It’s amazing how much better policing can be when cops don’t carry guns with them all the time
In Europe all cops carry guns and yet most cops I’ve gotten to talk to are great. I’m Italian and all Italian cops I’ve talked to have been great to me and often times I ask them for directions when I get lost in our metropolitan cities. I don’t think it has got to do with guns, but rather police training. Compared to the US most EU countries have a training period of 2yr rather than the 6mo I’ve heard from friends and family typical of the US, which ultimately allows cops to be better prepared and police trainers to weed out the unsuitable.
My sister in law is a (not American) cop when she’s not an EMT … And she also moonlights as a volunteer fireman.
Where on the hero-bastard spectrum of cheap generalization you’ve devised does she sit?
THE ROLE OF THE POLICE IS PROTECTING CAPITALISM

TIL the UK and Norway are not in Europe lol
Where have they taken them?
Nowhere, not American is a foreign concept to them.
What a rude and typical European thing to say. You know that there are as many idiots in Europe as there are in the states, right?
I don’t know if your pun was intentional, but yeah anything not American would be foreign to an American. That’s how definitions work.
It was intentional, honestly i’m proud of it x)
In that case we’ll played, you pride is warranted.
*ACAB, in their capacity as cops.
Yep, she’s still unfortunately a bastard, sorry to say
The job of a cop is a bastard job. When she is working voluntarily as a cop, she is supporting a bastardized system and is therefore a bastard.
