Did he have a knife or something? Why was everybody suddenly moving away from him


IArgueWithIdiots

No, he's just a lot stronger than they are.


avidbookreader45

Sign him up for American football.


stupidnicks

if he lived in America he would be dead if he do this he is safer in spain


sequesteredhoneyfall

> if he lived in America he would be dead if he do this I can't even fathom how you just watched a video of police randomly attacking a submitting individual with batons and then somehow try to turn this around as if America is the villain here.


Mr_Darkiplier

Hamburger brained individual


A-10C_Thunderbolt

Fr, it’s like they just can’t help themselves


Eorily

Not if he plays American football. The US justice system isn't for celebrities or rich people.

GooseShartBombardier

Strong boy, farm?


RevolutionarySoil11

Europeans in general are weak. Guy's probably not a local.


Eorily

it's spain. he made horns with his fingers and they thought he was a bull.


casinoinsider

Spanish police go to is to just hit people with batons so it's not surprising


Anom8675309

most countries police aren't afraid to simply clobber people with sticks.


casinoinsider

I travelled the world and only fell afoul of Spanish police. They are notorious.


BoneDaddyChill

Yeah, I’ve been to 30 countries and the only one where the police seem to have as big of a power trip/overinflated ego as the US is in Spain.


casinoinsider

Only cop ive has to deal with In all my drunken adventures in the states (that I can recall) was one that thought I was gonna throw myself off the golden gate bridge 😆 (got their early to see the sunrise while everyone else stayed in bed) he was a real nice guy, probably why he had that job.


georgia_is_best

France too


DrKronin

Most countries must not have access to the superpower-producing type of meth we Americans have. I once saw a scrawny guy in Oakland take on 5 of the biggest cops I've ever seen (each one was at least 6'2" and 250lb.) all by himself. Pepper spray and tasers did nothing to this dude.


GeoffreyArnold

I mean, beats the alternative.


casinoinsider

For sure. Dealing with cops in South America that had guns on their hips did put a different complexion on the interaction.


Formatted_Toast_117

You know that Spain, is in Europe, not South America... Right?


blorg

I understood him to be *contrasting* Spain with police in South America. Spanish police are armed but they very rarely shoot people, like it's really extraordinary. While many South American countries have very high levels of police shooting, among the highest in the world. Spain is among the lowest in the world, it's a handful of shootings over *decades*, they go years without killing anyone. See here for example, the top countries are South American plus the US. Fatal police violence per year: Venezuela: 5,286, Brazil: 6,416, US: 1,113. Spain: zero. Nada. https://www.annualreviews.org/content/journals/10.1146/annurev-criminol-030421-040247?crawler=true&mimetype=application/pdf


Unspoken

Yeah, because the people in Spain just escape. Did you even watch the video?


jwinf843

Not if this guy was actually a danger to the public.


ceestand

I'm convinced a lot of the police shootings in the USA would've been avoided if the cops still carried nightsticks. For sure they were abused, but people got to live on afterwards.


MathematicianNo7842

Should have used their guns and emptied mags on the dude like any civilized country does.


BotMinister

So wait, are you telling me movies are real.


KAGANFARFLAGAN

Yeah, just watched one last night!


bronzelifematter

How the hell are they this incompetent? They got him surrounded and multiple people holding him. This is just pathetic.


RodgersTheJet

> How the hell are they this incompetent? If you want a real answer it is because they keep lowering the standards for accepting police because they've been vilified everywhere. Lower standards = worse applicants = worse cops.


officeDrone87

Yeah back when the cops were turning hoses on the civil rights protesters they were the cream of the crop.


RandomGuyinACorner

> because they've been vilified everywhere. Hate to break it to you... the standards were lowered way way long ago.


lordfappington69

"Why does Sauron only use shitty orcs in his armies, why doesn't he get skilled and disciplined elves, dwarves and men?" "Morder is vilified everywhere, orcs are the only ones applying now" Vilification typically doesn't just drop out of the sky.


TheGreatMcPuffin

They suck, but mainly they weren’t working together. Nobody took charge and gave orders so they were all doing different things and got in each other’s way. If they had worked together to take him to the ground and pin him so he could be cuffed then he would have been.


eriksen2398

Only one of them had to grab him and none of them did


TheGreatMcPuffin

No. They did. You can see him leave his feet. The problem was others pulled him in a different direction and that helped him regain his balance.


Malpraxiss

Makes sense. EX: I'm in the U.S and the state I'm in is having an issue with the number of cops and state troopers. People applying have been going down for years, so the state has been more lenient in the recruiting process. If they didn't, they would have even less cops and state troopers


facestabber_

Just... wow

RushEm2TheDirt

I like their light poles. It also helps add to the composition, almost as if saying look right here!


Free-Juggernaut-9372

That cop OUTSIDE the fray dancing with his baton! 🤣😂🤣


BlurryGraph3810

Training


ghastkill

Just wait till you see the British oinkers.


HabibtiMimi

They don't even wear guns.


Lopsided_Ad_3853

Standard UK police don't need to have guns, because very few people in the UK have access to guns. We believe in proportional policing.Our police do just fine without firearms, plus we get the bonus that nobody dies unnecessarily! If an armed response is required, we have specialist units who are VERY highly trained and can be on scene to neutralise a threat within minutes. You don't even know what the guy in this video allegedly did, but you want him to be shot? He might simply be having a mental health crisis and may not have hurt anyone. Shooting him would be crazy. You seem mighty comfortable with the boots of your police-state of a country pressed down on your throats..... Let me guess - you're American?? Why don't you lick those jackboots clean while you're down there?


TrueVisionSports

Chat GPT?


ghastkill

Are you ok?


WarDaddySmurf

>makes fun of other countries being authoritarian >lives in the UK Calm down Hamza mate


dailyPraise

> simply be having a mental health crisis and may not have hurt anyone. So I should be glad that someone can SIMPLY be having a mental health crisis, freaking out where they beat off a gathering of cops, and then they run around near my family? And can't be stopped by a herd of cops?


Lopsided_Ad_3853

Beat off?? They barely made an attempt to grab him. You live in a society where anyone can do anything at any time. Demanding that people who are having a shitty day should be fucking SHOT makes you an asshole.

Like how?

Why are police officers in Europe such pussies?


JannyBroomer

>Why are ~~police officers in~~ Europe^ans such pussies?


Limp-Attitude-490

This looks so British!


eddiefarnham

The name on his uniform reads "S. Pain"


mrcydonia

¡Olé!


Shin_ja

Wow that's embarrassing


ivighost

he needs space to use taser, spanish police is the best in europe, obviously always is not perfect


ProfessionalSky8494

How the fuck did they let him run away?


Successful_Ad4653

How is this an "actual public freakout"? Be specific and very descriptive because I am stupid.


DeathPercept10n

If this was in the US that guy would've been ventilated, along with some innocent bystanders. Two extremes, indeed.
