That's because our cops don't suck
I'm English and live in New York City and your police force seems really undertrained.

So you wants cops to beat you up and shoot you rather than be nice to you and treat you like a person?
>>66256170
we could have stolen that van and the cop did shit
you have shit cops
shitty coppys
While your friend was having his little tete-a-tete, they were checking the plates and checking up on the current status of the van that was reported stolen.
Also, some police cultures don't require that you be dealt with violently if you disrespect their authority, which ironically means that their authority is more well-respected.

This is how policing has to work in order to keep the situation where the majority of frontline police don't need to carry firearms. They call it "policing by consent". The police treat the public like human beings, and in return (most of) the public treats them with respect and generally trust the police.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_enforcement_in_the_United_Kingdom
>In the British model of policing, officers exercise their powers to police with the implicit consent of the public. "Policing by consent" is the phrase used to describe this. It expresses that the legitimacy of policing in the eyes of the public is based upon a general consensus of support that follows from transparency about their powers, their integrity in exercising those powers and their accountability for doing so.[2][3]
Murilards think the brutality of their police is normal lel

They have numberplate recognition m8, they checked it and that they weren't added plates and were done.

They don't give a shit. If you actually try anything you get smacked and arrested

Do you knock out a little kid that walks up to you and calls you a doo doo head?

>>66255561
You really expect that every cop you meet go ahead and shoot you, right?
wow what a gay
xd
I kinda agree with the sentiment of this thread. As spineless as the cops in OP are, they're still better than the meatheads we have.

No.
