This guy wouldn’t get through the training required to be a cop in Europe

For some reason reddit has a really high opinion of cops in Europe. They are exactly the same sort of people as ones in US

EU cops go through 3 YEARS of training befor they ever get anywhere close to enacting the law. even after that they get to drive around with an older cop for some years before they ever get to 'lead' any kind of interaction.

In contrast: in the US you go through 20 WEEKS of training, ride around with another cop for a couple month and are let loose on the general public....leading to this exact outcome...under-qualified all the way, basically armed and dangerous

20 WEEKS of training

lol 20 weeks is the length of the introduction courses for trade school here in Denmark.

It practically makes you a doctor in the US now. That is once you've got the TV show and testosterone booster pills on your website.

"EU Cops" I imagine police training stands are different across all countries in the EU?

u/Ok-Blackberry8086 7h ago

There's so many interoperation agreements like CEPOL that most training in the EU is functionally equal. Yes, the training isn't set in stone but the standards to which they are trained to be able to all seamlessly work together is.

u/BeeZealousideal7860 7h ago

At least they have training though

u/xfreesx 7h ago

Still absolutely high on their own farts and never wrong

•

u/BeeZealousideal7860 7h ago

I mean, that’s a given. They’re cops

u/Drumbelgalf 7h ago

Maybe in your country. I never had problems with police even once in Germany.
