As a UK officer - the best skill is talking to someone. Plenty of situations can be defused by speaking to people at a reasonable level and treating them as human, instead of shouting orders at them like many American officers seem to do.

Some years ago there was a case in the US where a police officer not on duty deescalated a situation with a armed man by talking with him and calm im down almost to point to give up. Then the police arrived and barge in screaming like a drill sergant. The officer who deescalated the situation lost his job because of this.

I think training makes a *big* difference too, apparently in some parts of the US you can become an armed police officer with just two weeks total training! That training includes both general policing and fire arms training. Whereas in the UK you have to have been a qualified officer for years before you'll even be considered for fire arms training. The UK training also has an emphasis on de-esculation and I believe that officers need permission to shoot.

He told me to stop taking the piss and to show him , so I did and on seeing my collection he first said “do you have a license for these” to which I replied yes . He then said you really shouldn’t be carrying these about to which I replied I’ve just come from a gun club and the shooting range I can’t exactly walk with them . He then said oh okay off you go ; he never did ask to see my licenses .

It was brutal to see and find out that something that seems so wrong was/is happening here. Then multiple articles came out about this civilian dressed police force was behaving like thugs and beating up people, for again no good reason. A woman also got hit because she tried to save someone from a beating, because she though it was thugs. The group had been named "tæskeholdet" which translate to something like "beating team". The most frustrating thing is that, you would think that a country like Denmark would go in and say "this is far from okay. This need to stop and the people behind this need to be punished accordingly." but no. The team was broken off but are still a part of the police force. It is disgusting.

The same police station is responsible for other "mysterious" fatalities that were never investigated. Also the stepson of one of the police officers r*aped and beat a Chinese architecture student to death... and everyone helped covering it up.

Allow me to correct you. In the UK as a whole, police are not armed; however, in Northern Irekand (part of the UK) police have ALWAYS been arned due to their dual role (1) ordinary, normal police work, and (2) combatting terrorism. While the police vehicles in mainland Britain are easily distinguishable by their Battenburg markings, i.e. blue and yellow chequered decals, the police vehicles in Northern Ireland are easily distinguishable from the rest of the world as they are grey-coloured, armoured Landrovers with pivotal windscreen grills designed to protect against petrol bombs and other hand missiles and small-arms fire. Formerly the Royal Ulster Constabulary, they are now the Police Service of Northern Ireland - the ONLY UK police to be permanently armed.

@@philipmccarthy6175 Yes, they were ALWAYS armed, even before 1921, so you clearly don't know your own country's history, yet you are happy to continue with the tired and fallacious old mantra of the RUC being a sectarian force. In the first place, police only do what the governments tell them, and thus can become a political pawn, and that applies to all countries. Secondly, while the RUC were indeed mainly Protestant, it was purely for the simple reason that Catholics were intimidated by the Nationalist/Republican leaders who warned them not to join or else!! The message was clear, and that's the way it has always been. In my job I had to meet police all over the UK, and I've met and talked with literally thousands. I met many Catholic officers in the RUC - fine men who had served up to ten and fifteen years alongside their Protestant colleagues with never a problem. In a riot situation, it doesn't matter whether the brick that hits you is thrown by a Protestant or Catholic, a Unionist or a Nationalist; it's a situation that police all over the world have to deal with regardless of political or other motivation. I've listened to Catholic and Protestant officers discuss the many situations in NI, and the usual consensus is that they are there to do the government's bidding, whether they liked it or not. In every instance I found decent men trying under very difficult circumstances to do the job they were paid to do. I've met Catholic officers who where not just threatened by local people, but had their familes boycotted and ostracised, just because they chose to become police officers. When you not only allow, but encourage youn children to stand in front of their parents and throw petrol bombs at police, it says a lot about the parents, and yet you applaud this kind of behaviour and put the blame on the police. At the end of the day, if you create and provoke a violent situation, you're going to get a violent response and blame everyone else except yourself for the outcome.

In general the British Police are unarmed, but there are armed units everywhere if required. You will see heavily armed officers in higher risk areas, like around Government & military premises, & these are very visible. Many normal police officers are asking to be removed from gun duty because of an officer that has been charged about the shooting of a suspect while on duty. These men do not want a similar offence to be laid against them. As a rule the British police aim is to work for & with the public, to serve the law rather than to enforce it. It is known as policing by consent, not by force. The police tend to present to the public as friendly & polite, & helpful. You usually have no problem approaching a police officer to ask for help or advice etc, they even arrest people in a respectful way, unless confronted aggressively. It is very unlikely that an officer will point a gun at you, unless you pose a threat yourself.

In the UK we also have Community Police Officers who deal with anti - social behaviour, rather than serious crime.

you know that top 10 is a fake when they show you us at slot 6 showing a dude that probably can't run more then 10meter xD

We used to go to Portugal every year and there was some shoot outs at nightclubs near the Algarve. Also my family were in Lisbon in '68 and the miltary had taken over, soldiers had guns on the buses

I would imagine the 'metric' can't be objective. For instance, Canadian police rank higher simply because they don't have the crime, or level of crime we do here in the U.S., in other words, if the Canadian police had to police the U.S., what would happen? I recently had my phone stolen in Lyon, France. Not only were the police super helpful, but the cops who helped me (5 of them!) were beautiful humans..just as an aside, I live in Texas and was in Houston at a restaurant when 3 swat members came in to eat. They were the most formidable (meaning scary) men I have ever seen!

Kellie, those French Police, all 5 of them, may not have been as ready to assist you for any reason other than you're quite attractive. Sorry, not meaning to sound creepy. I was on a bus in Spain going into France and once we got over the border the French police boarded the bus to make sure there were no evil terrorists aboard the bus. Three French police took it in turn walking down to the back of the bus and out again. I commented to a French woman next to me that it seemed odd that they didn't trust the Spanish police to check us out. She said "Le flics veut juste regarder nos seins." (The police just want to look at our tits.) It was a very hot day.

5:35 this is because in Europe we are not trained for "that kind of situations where you need to activate your survival instinct", because those situations just never happen here.

The word "never" is somewhat exagerated.

I feel there is a difference between a police force and a police service. In the UK the service element is at the forefront of first engagement, unless they gave cause to think otherwise.

The UK Police are as nasty as any in the world when it is necessary to act that way, for example when rioting or threats to national security are active. They are trained to de-escalate situations wherever possible and don't usually come to break up fights until they are nearly over.

The US police are probably the most aggressive because fire arm possesion is so high , they then have to become super aggressive but they do overdo it lots of times I think !

As soon as he pointed the gun toward the cop, I already had one of the police activity pov videos on front of me 😁

I’d love to know how they worked out the top 10 police. Was it just a list of their favorites???

Maybe next time you could change the title for British (English ?) police vs American police

Here in Austria 🇦🇹 I just sat down a couple of days ago in a park cuz it is getting warmer and sunny and had a 1 hour conversation randomly with a cop about job opportunities 😂😂

Not only are cops in some countries armed, they are also legged.

How the UK Police got first video, genuinely baffles me. I don't know about anywhere else in England or the UK but in London the police is actually a joke. They don't actually care about the crimes you report, they'll just overlook it. A big example of this is, my dad's car was broken into in 2016, we reported to the police, and they never solved the problem, even though the street had CCTV, but they still didn't care. Another big thing, is when it comes to missing people, My little brother (14 yrs old) has been missing since August 2023, and the police just don't really care. Although it is very difficult to find someone in a massive city like London, they still don't really care. I've had the search called off multiple times. The Metropolitan Police only do stuff that conveniences them. Unless it's a massive crime, they'll just overlook it.

Well outside of London, the London MET are probably even more of a joke than they are to you. I'm from Somerset and out of the 10 or so interactions I've had with police, most have been a good laugh at the end of the day

1:30 in my country (eu member) they are armed but resports say they rarely even have to show it to anyone throught...their whole career so that's that ...

That blonde cop in skid row Los Angeles they would really listen to her😁😁

No matter what the situation is the correct response is to film the police. In the UK it is your ABSOLUTE right to film the constabulary and you should 100% film EVERY interaction you have with them in all circumstances.

You have to watch “Jim Jeffries rides along with Amsterdam police” it’s so funny 😂

There is no such thing as European police . In each country it’s different , sometimes even very different

From what I know, Norway's police force is what I'd call an "unarmed armed police force"; firearms training is part of the police training in Norway, and all officers do have access to guns. However, they are typically stored in a special box inside the patrol car, and they need permission to take them out. But they have training and there are weapons available for Norwegian police.

Right now the news that we here in Denmark get is that gangs and gun crime is not really dealt with in sweden. Gun crime and terror actions seems to be going up. Sweden is called the gun capital of Europe. I met a guy about 6 years ago that wanted to go to sweden as hed heard it was vwey peaceful.. I was like, yeah..

3:37 - Metric: VoicesInsideHead/OutOfAss squared 😅

Since the UK changed the rules to get more women to join the police force in the 80s, we don't have any more female officers, but we have 5'4" tubby policemen! Same with the Fire Service.

the police ranking is just opinion and also depends on if you count the special police forces in or not. if you count them in, austria is somewere in the top5, you might even have heard of the "Eko Cobra"

Something else in this video the two police officers are from different forces, they have different helmets, one with a ridge and one without . I THINK IT MAY BE STAGED. Police forces have their own jurisdictions and don't overlap areas.

8:14 If you want something just ask for it 😂

About 1 in 20 of UK police are special constables who are fully trained and empowered unpaid volunteers, there is also about 1 police support volunteer for every 25 full time police. They support officers in Neighbourhood Policing Teams, improving standards of witness care or providing enhanced levels of customer service and helping the public at police stations, etc. We also have nearly as many Police Community Support officers who have some but not all the legal powers of the police but are paid. PCSOs generally perform routine duties, assisting and supporting police officers, gathering intelligence, carrying out security patrols and, through their presence alone, reassuring the public. Where possible, they also attend to matters not requiring police powers.

american officers looks like a donut. other police forces have annual physical tests to avoid it.

What do you mean by 'bad ass', Ryan?

Norway cops are armed, but their guns are locked in their cars. They have to get permission to open them. Also we have armed police in the UK, but they are a specialist unit.

Lithuanian police move toward having 50/50 male to female officers. For verious reasons. Which is kind of cool. People still hate police though since they issue fines. But they ware great in my experience. If you follow what they ask, and speal like normal human being. But it's funny to watch, how people try to act tough, while police just ask for ID. They could just show it and go home, but nah... End up locked for a day. We have documentary TV show from their daily life, and I have full respect for that proffession

In Germany the police is (sometimes jokingly) referred to "your friend and helper", you're not actually supposed to be scared of them if you didn't do anything wrong. Just be respectful and behave normally, they're not very likely to shoot you. You can step out of your vehicle and reach into your pockets without being killed, which I'm sure, to an american, must sound really dangerous

Dutch police offers are armed, and carry a gun, but they're VERY heavily trained on using said gun as a last resort only. If possible at all, they'll try to use melee gear like batons or a taser. If those don't work. they'll use their gun for discouragement first and foremost. Actually shooting is a very, very last resort. I think this makes all the difference in practice.

What about Spanish police? I think based on my experience They are pretty Well trained

There is a big difference in the way American and European police officers use their guns. American cops shoot first and ask questions later. In Europe, it is rare for police officers to use guns. For example, in Finland it is very rare.

While it's nice to see Canadian cops ranked as high as they are, it does raise your question: what is the basis of comparison? I don't think that "Canadian cops" is a "thing." While the RCMP is a national (and arguably the best police force in the world, period) force who cover all of the areas that no one else does, you still have the separate provincial forces as well as local forces in cities large enough to justify them. For example, Toronto has its metropolitan police (with the exception of the 400-series highways that cut through the city, which are patrolled by the Ontario Provincial Police. (Trivia Pop Quiz! Where on the cover of the "Sgt. Pepper" album is a reference to Ontario?)

if you have ARV pull up on you like that, you have royally fecked up somehow. US sends people over to UK for training courses and everytime they do, the de-esculation improves no end back home with less injuries and death

My best guess: Your mind seems to be warped by USAbased education -- not only school, but also job and life. You should live somewhere else for awhile.

One mistake in the map showing unarmed vs armed police. Northern Ireland's police (PSNI) are armed.

A major problem with US police forces is that there are around 15 to 18 thousand of them - no, not officers, different forces. This includes federal, state and county forces. There's no way anyone could judge "US Police" as being better or worse than others when there are that many.

The guy with the toy is a KZreadr who plays jokes on people

Are there any requirements on fitness in the USA? I never have encountered a overweight police officer in the Netherlands. I know for a fact that there are mandatory tests for the police and if you fail thet you cannot be on the streets. Period. It would be absurd.

Norwegian police don't typically carry firearms, but they have them in their patrol cars.

Something that is not taken into account is that European countries have great possibilities of having terrorist attacks, and their training and operation must be adapted for this.

I have never had many issues with the police in England, I've been cuffed up for a bit of yayo once but they were nice and was at the front. Let me go with a warning but kept my nose clean (no pun intended) ever since xD

Strange that armed police in Europe don't pull their guns as quickly and you don't hear of citizens being shot in anywhere near the same level of frequency.

I think the metric is "I smoked a shit load of weed"

I live in London. The British police have completely lost the plot. I could expand on this for ten thousand words, but I don't have time at the moment. Believe me, they are the pits.😡

the only reason US police is catching more criminals is because the crime rate is way higher than all of EU combined not to mention the people who get made into criminals because some cops have to meet a quota, or the people who makes tiny mistakes but get marked as Criminals because of the system you have..

That police force ranking is completely Bs. If it was about best special units, then Austria would be among them with our Cobra Spezial Unit. Also, I do not know anything in which the UK police is best in.

In Spain we have the UME (the military emergency unit born in 2005) that is well known inside and outside Spain. They are a military force (includes Guardia Civil, a police group that is part of the military) that helps in all kind of emergencies: fires, floods, mountain rescues, earthquakes... I know they helped to construct the same unit in other countries and they go to emergencies around the world. I'm surprised Spain wasn't mentioned because we collaborate with other polices (French and Portuguese) and we had a terrorist group (disbanded in 2011) making our police very aware of dangerous activities. Our Policía Nacional is one of the most followed in social media accounts of the world because they give tips to be safe and alert the citizens of dangerous situations, make tutorials on how to change a tire safely on the road or how to put the snow chains. All very "modern" for an old soul like me.

The guy being pulled over by the armed cops is calm because he knows there is a VERY low chance of him being shot.

The thin blue line comes from the thin red line which refers to the British formation in battle which spread soldiers in two ranks to maximise firepower as opposed to massed phalanx tactics. It was later associated with the Crimean war and at some stage about a century ago, changed to thin blue line and associated with police in the U.S. Has since been adopted by neo Nazis and alt right.

1:15 we just had a case which showed my weapons might be needed in germany T_T
