It's only when there is a legitimate terrorist threat or the UN is in session. The rest of the time they don't have the rifle and gear.

One time I went to Utrecht on a business trip and I had to go home at like 6pm. When I tried to go home by bus the client told me "we called a taxi for you because we don't feel you would be safe alone."

Is it really that bad?

It's not much different than police carrying MP5s in parts of Europe like Bongland. US police are not opting for ARs over SMGs because of militarization, but logistical ease. It's much easier to buy domestic for a gun with a massive civilian market than it is to buy HK shit from Europe.

Public transportation is generally quite safe.

It depends on where you're at. The city center is quite safe. Public transpiration is also quite safe. I live in a village that's annexed by Utrecht and nothing ever happens here.

But there are some neighbourhoods that are overrun with foreigners. Normally you can also just walk there, but it's less safe than other areas. The problem makers are usually 16-21 year olds kids. And they generally don't carry weapons. It's easy to recognize the bad neighbourhoods because they have lots of flats.

Bolice as Utrecht central station.

>>67407385
Utrecht central station is a busy hub that connects the entire country. So it's filled with cops who watch for terrorists.

They're not used to armor i guess.

In France, it's not uncommon to see fully armed soldiers patrolling a city center

In the US, it's considered a bit third-world to use your military like a domestic police force

That said, these high school dropouts (city cops) should really not be allowed near weapons

France is literally the only country I've been to where I've seen police on patrol brandishing assault rifles on the street. Countries with regular militarized police like Italy and France are NOT democracies.

Why do cops always wear something in navy color?

>>67408780
Zeta were former military, not police. Nah those poor guys have little options, switching sides isn't as easy as you'd think for police in anti-narco duty (lots of scores tro settle) and their lives are threatened as fuck as corrupt high level officials means their identities are not as secret as they should be.

True story, I once met a guy who was in a specialized unit going after dirty cops, nice, smart fellow even if you could tell he was a little off in the head, the guy had done undercover work against the cartels. He said it straight out to me he wasn't expecting to live more than a few years (which sadly enough turned out to be true) and had this fucking out of whack high roller lifestyle as he was legit getting paid a ton of money. The sad thing is he was actually trying to settle down and had just married shortly before he was assasinated.

Your average Mexican feels nothing but contempt for cops, and they have every reason to, most of our interactions are limited to petty corruption by low level police, but there actually is people in the crossfire of the drug war trying to do their job. Our high level officials are so corrupt it often gets missed sadly enough and the government's attempts to turn the population on the side of law have all been lame and ineffective. We all mostly look at armed men as enemies, regardless of whether they're police or the cartels and that's a big part of the problem.

Anyway, yeah, most of the guys in that picture probably don't have much of a future, the best possible outcome for most of them is they make enough on the job they can afford to start over in the US (usually marrying a Chicana).

NYPD officers are only suited up like this if there's an imminent threat to public safety (i.e terrorist threat) or some large event is happening and needs extra security (i.e the UN being in session)
The best part is our citizens have every capability to have all of the gear that sheboon is wearing and more.

They also have a detachment of the National Guard stationed in Grand Central because of how high priority of a target it is. Kind of like how >>67407667 describes it.
