What most off the world doesn't take into consideration is that this is a nation full of lunatics with guns, a nation full of gang members and machine guns in the car. A nation full of meth dealers and distributors. A nation full of Mexican cartel members driving around with a trunk full of severed heads. A nation full of drug runners with 10kilos of heroin in the trunk that will stop at nothing. It's not London. It's not Paris. It's not the EU.
Most Americans , more than Western Europeans expect people to follow the law, respect the rules and expect others not to break the rules and so on. Most people do not see the individual as a victim because everyone understands that you comply with the police officer. You do not talk back. You do not argue. You do not run etc. you simply say "yes sir", "no sir" and things end well for all. In any part of the USA, when you are a dick to a cop, your life will take a turn for the worst real quick.
It's important to understand that in the USA, it is always the exact same type of dickhead that "has problems" with the "unfair" police. 99.9% of people just say yes sir, no sir and thank you sir and continue on their day without issue. It's also important to more that the same dickhead that has all these problemswith police is NEVER the guy who says "yeah, I was wrong to be acting as I was" but rather they are always the victim in everything.
