Interesting that in other modern nations like England, Germany, Japan,
et cetera, the police there hardly ever kill anyone.

Their police hardly ever get killed either.


Why do you suppose that is?

A culturally less violent and more compliant society.
If you ask your average German whether it was OK to attack an officer
and try to take his weapon he would simply be aghast. They would
expect to be killed.


Oh. So it has nothing to do with the easy availability of guns.



There is no question. Europeans regard Americans as cowboys.


Yeah, and they all want to come here and play cowboy too

Yup. And we were a country populated with aggressive people mostly. At
least those who chose to come here.
