For some reason I love the TV-show "Cops". Don't ask me why, I just do. There's something in the mix of cops trying to be extra helpful and white trailer trash fighting that gets me to watch it week after week.
#1: If a guy keeps repeating "I'm gonna be honest with you officer" OR "I'm being honest with you officer" he's guilty! #2: If you're black, you're guilty! (No this is not a racist joke) #3: If you're a cop and want to beat the shit out of a suspect never keep screaming "STOP RESISTING" when the camera is on! #4: If you have a broken tail light, there's drugs in the car. #5: Don't run, the police will just get angry and #3 your ass. #6: If you live in a trailerpark you're on crack. #7: Cops have a compass buildt into their brain. When chasing a subject they may say "Going north" take two right turns and then say "northbound again!". This is not a flaw in the compass, north has shifted!
you might be surprised living in the snow but many of your statements are true for the US
they are not going to show you simple traffic violations and issuing tickets for improper passing and going 10 miles over the speed limit. Thats not the purpose of this show
hahah yeah these were the days! I used to watch it on Saturday's for some reason, where dinner was usually hamburgers :/ Needless to say, I felt a little like trailer trash myself but America's Most Wanted made up for it.

#9 having a gun in your car and saying some story about random guy came up, threw it through the window into the back seat and then running away, will not fly with the police and you'll get your ass arrested

in real situations doing real stuff with real problems...this summer comes a brand new epic series so real you wont believe its real
i like the one (at least i think it was cops) where they set up one of those trap cars for someone to steal, and the guy steals it and realizes its a trap when the engine shuts off and hes just coasting along. instead of slowing down he just like takes out a crack pipe and starts smoking before his car comes to a stop haha

I was watching the exact same episode as the op was watching that inspired this thread. You forgot #8 If you are loitering and trespassing, don't blurt out that you're not prostituting and don't tell the cop you have court in the morning.. #9 Don't pick up fat 15$ hookers on the street, because the cop will use his verbal tactics to crack her when they have nothing. Then they'll cuff you and find your cocaine.

It might come to you as a surprise but there are horrible crimes everywhere around the world. Also in Scandinavia.

What the hell was going on in that cop's head? :D He should have understood that there was no way he could kick that window in, and the most stupid thing would have been to give fresh air to possible fire.
damn cops are hillarious.
Well I'm lucky I haven't met a retard cops like those. Everytime I've been in contact with the police they've behaved very rationally.

i think this illustrates the difference between two departments greatly. people opt for firefighting position to save lives, people opt for a police officer job to have a gun and being able to order people around.
I think this particular cop just came in his pants with the idea that he can arrest a firefighter.
I remember an episode, were they chased someone through the woods and got stuck. Then the police car starts to burn until the hole car is on fire.. was fun
Does anyone have a link to that one cops that goes like this? (so he pulled a guy over and is asking him questions, it went something along the lines of this) Cop: Whats your name? Criminal: C Bone Cop : *Sigh* what is your real name? Criminal: I told you C Bone waz ma real name offisuh!
Funny shit if anyone can find it id greatly appreciate it.
EPT
if anyone can find it id greatly appreciate it.
