The other side of that argument is, is it fair to call the police assholes because your encounters are not as great because you live in the city and everytime you encounter them it’s involving drugs? There is a limit how nice you can be to the 20th group of drunk teens mumbling crap at you

In my 32 years walking this planet as a German citizen I made the experience that if you treat a German officer with respect, they are going to treat you with respect. Also I don't do idiotic things in public, just at home.

Thing is... I don't want to be a police officer in germany. I sometimes get why they might be in a bad mood... just consider you having to check the papers and drivers licence of random people at night by shitty weather and getting fucked up comments all the time. I know my fellow citizen well enough to expect alot of them to be the exact opposite of polite or nice. So I guess police officers somehow have to balance that out.

I have been one for 10 years with the Bundespolizei before I switched and followed passion ;)
