European police is not great but not thst bad.
A retired police officer once told me that at least in the 70s and 80s German police was full of neonazis and hooligans. They couldn't find enough decent recruits during the RAF years.
Idk, we reportedly have a bit of a shortage in Germany and my first thought was, "oh good, can't find enough Nazis, huh?" Which is of course polemical but there does seem to be an issue with Nazis being more likely to pursue a career in law enforcement.
