Not really. However I do see a shitton of them in the subways...a shitton.

the one where the guy flipped out of the van and they started beating him up pissed me off.

Tell me about it.
Unless that guy killed 100 babies or something, that's just fucking disgusting.

Whilst I'll admit the police can piss me off OCCASIONALLY, I also admit that it could be MUCH worse.
For instance.

To those who don't get it, that's the Gestapo.

That aside, I think that unless you're in an area that is basically a shit-hole, the police won't overreact to things. Not to say they won't arrest you, just won't beat the living Hell out of you like in some of these clips.

I could be wrong though.

Yeah, location is key in these sort of events. It all depends on the area.

Pretty sure the point is that America is suppose to be a democratic country promoting freedom and fair laws when their police is acting as if it were a police state.

Basically this, and some but not all cops act like this.

You'd be blind to say nothing like this could possibly happen in Canada as well.

[Lavenchie]

China could never be like this though

I never meant this to mean that this never happens in Canada, but when it does happen in America, America reacts harder so it feels like it's like its more of a problem there than here

[ursus]

I was under the impression that Canadian police are known for being much more brutal and unforgiving.
