I’ve seen cops doing most of the shit you’ve seen American cops do on the internet, in real life, in Europe. Haven’t seen any shoot out but that’s because they don’t need to, no one here has a gun. But recording cops is illegal over here, in other places you only can record them if they are engaging you and you can’t share the clip. The situation may be a bit worse over there because with so many guns perhaps the cops are more wary, but you see so many videos because their freedom of speech is more protected than ours.
Russia and China are not the only ones with very well oiled propaganda machines
