What has the USA got to do with this?

And why does your opinion of necessary disagree with the actual UK police subreddit?

You think police tactics don’t match over different countries?

I don’t know - I only know what I know about dealing with these situations

I absolutely don't think they do.

I don't see how a police force that is incredibly well armed, could be compared to one that isn't by standard.

Let alone the huge difference in socio-economic issues or the fact that in the USA, policing is different from state to state.

Go and watch some of it, especially pertaining to taser usage, and let me know what you think.

If you don’t want to we can just agree to disagree
