For sure less murders and better trained.
In Europe there are certainly bad apples (as seen here) but not comparable to the mass and blatant gang/thug mentality of US cops.

OTOH While at least a few US pigs get punished for the huge number of murders none of the Belgian police get punished for the rare cases of plain murder they commit.
There was an article about it only last week.
