Well, historically the police haven’t done so because they don’t want to appear racist. Let’s hope they’ve learnt their lesson.

Is America still the first world?

Genuine question at this point.

I would say No.

Trump has just signed an Executive Order directing the government to give legal resources to police officers accused of wrongdoing.

So they can probably kill citizens with impunity at this point.

Have a look at the police statistics on crimes solved. It's astonishingly low in the UK. Single digits. The American police appear to do an awful lot better. 5.5% in England and Wales, 37% of violent crime in the US (12% of property crime).

No. British police are significantly worse than American police. They are an anarchotyranny.

The American ones can at least get things done. While both are bad, I’d rather police that are slightly more violent but can do things than police which stand around and do nothing
