I was impressed at how relaxed the cops were. They weren’t swearing at bystanders. They were friendly with them while faced with this deranged nutjob.

Not like here, very different body language and attitude. Very admirable.

That’s because the cops there aren’t hyped up on steroids and haven’t been trained to view the citizenry as the enemy.

Cops here deal with an entirely different type of people. They HAVE to be aggresive... even with bystanders. Bystanders here would cause more trouble than the perp if left uncontrolled.

That’s because, unlike many times in this country, the cops aren’t scared out of their individual and collective minds and can thus act rationally even when faced with a serious and imminent threat.
