“well what the fuck did you expect when you hit a cop?”

I'd expect that cop to grab my arm and restrain me so I wouldn't be able to hit him again.

Did she deserve that? Yes.

Does that make it ok? No.

I would like for the cop to grab my arm and restrain me so I wouldn't be able to hit them again.

I would expect to get some teeth knocked out.

That was OP's point. That doesn't happen in a lot of countries Western Europe or East Asia, e.g. Japan. You should be detained, not injured by police acting as their own judge, jury and executioners (Or teeth knocker-outers)

Edit: I should have made it clear I meant that it doesn't happen in a lot of countries with a similar socioeconomic situation to the US. Sure if you want to count war-torn countries, countries with dictators or violent regimes then yeah, it does happen in a lot of other countries. Kind of sad we have to compare American policing to those places though, right?

Actually it happens in a shit ton of countries.

You've just watched too much Swedish police who run away and then ask for military support to enforce the law.

I guess if you count countries in a bad socio-economic situation then yeah it's a shit ton of countries.

But you'd expect America to be as good at policing as European countries without injuring or murdering people

America hasn't had to stop building police stations because they can't enforce the law yet.

So I guess America's actually doing better. It's also worth noting that NYC is actually less dangerous than London, so, Good Job NYPD.

But nope, drunk bitch gets slapped when she's punching the head of the cop carrying her, rather and just getting dropped on her ass, and suddenly its the stasi.

Noticed this quite a bit with Americans these days, nobody wants to actually take responsibly for their own actions, they just want others take their shit. I mean what's she supposed to do? Not get stupidly drunk at the game? Not get herself thrown out? Not Punch the cops who've finally had enough of trying to talk her down and just carry her out?

Nope, she clearly suffers from compulsive alcoholism and a need to flail her arms like a child.

Do as I say, not as I do. We could fucking coin that as the motto of modern America.

Nah.... the cops should be trained in proper restraint techniques. This looks like a bunch of frat boys about to rape a drunk chick

How come Europeans go from "America is the worst in the world!" to "America is worse than some European countries!" when somebody reminds them off the other 5 continents.

It's almost like they forget they're not the only nations out there. But given that Sweden recently considered asking for support from their military for policing certain communities. You might want to consider a little brutality.

Remember kids, if you can't argue facts, attack the sources.

My impression is that it's not quite satire, but worse than tabloid.

u/IAmTryingRingo Nov 05 '17

Asked for support in order to avoid potential deaths.

In America you won't even react to massacres to prevent future actual deaths.

The fact that your country is stagnating and without progress does not make it better.

u/TwelfthCycle Nov 05 '17

Still making the movies people watch, still inventing the shit people use, a work force participation rate that makes the German's rage like a motherfucker, and best of all, we don't jail people for having their pugs do a nazi salute.

u/IAmTryingRingo Nov 05 '17

Did you know that the Soviet response to criticism of their regime was called "whataboutism."

Why are you copying the Soviets?

u/bouncylitics Nov 05 '17

Nice national enquirer article.

u/TwelfthCycle Nov 05 '17

Cite a source that proves me wrong.

Or just admit that you have no information and just a collection of presuppositions and pre-programmed rejections of facts that make you uncomfortable.

Hahahahahahahahaha

Since Breitbart only does national news, do you get your local news from the schizophrenic guy who lives under a bridge?

I'm sorry that I offended the little Eurocrats. Maybe you need more hate speech laws to keep you from seeing things that offend you.

u/jarch5 Nov 05 '17

Mexican police may be crap in many ways, but in scenarios like this they often behave way better imo.

u/TwelfthCycle Nov 05 '17

With the tourists maybe, but the gloves come off when they're dealing with people who aren't connected.

Unless of course you can pay....
