In all honesty, most of America's police force are good at their jobs, and polite as well, now shower me with your downvotes

American police are terrible at their jobs, because they separate themselves from the community instead of becoming part of it.

Nah, plenty of good cops too. No down vote for you.

I think most of America's police are poorly trained but well intentioned and making the best of what they have.

Bad cops are likely in the minority even in America but I would argue that it's probably a larger minority than a lot of other [1]

The problem is that US officers HAVE to assume that anyone can be armed so they are faster at the trigger. EU Officers assume noone is armed

12 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

Canadian officers have to assume anyone can be armed too, but the average is 12 whereas the US' is 400 & Canada has 11/100ths the population

12 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Well yes, but Canada lacks the history of violence, rampant patriotism and especially the capitalism before socialism attitude.

To be fair, if an American cop did apologize for a mistake everyone would still be indignant for some imagined reason.

If an American cop did apolegize, the universe would implode on itself and reset the big bang

The "cops can do no wrong" side would be pissed at him for showing weakness and whine about the wussification of America.

12 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Yeah. Also, the "all cops are pigs" crowd might see it as an opportunity to create drama instead of moving along. Can go wrong so many ways.

12 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

They would edit it so the apology wasn't in it.

12 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

The problem is they usually do it in a press conference after detaining the person for several hours/days without cause.

12 years ago | Likes 9 Dislikes 1

Agree w/your sentiment but was referring to an apology like in the gif. If it happened like that people will still find a reason to be angry
