Do you think people in America carry firearms more often than other places because cops put them on-edge?
Question by : Do you think people in America carry firearms more often than other places because cops put them on-edge?
I was thinking about this issue recently while traveling in two different countries: Austria and Algeria.
Austrian police are kind of stern, but they have a very good reputation. You never hear about Austrian cops getting busted for “brutality,” and Austrian SWAT teams don’t just “raid the wrong house.” Austrian cops are serious professionals. Those sorts of dumb mistakes are extremely rare.
As a result, Austrians seem way more relaxed as a society. Very few Austrians carry handguns on them. They don’t fear their police force, and so, there is no need to “raise their game” to match the cops.
Now, in Algeria, basically everyone packs all the time. I even saw elderly old ladies with two handguns strapped under tearaway fabric on their burqas. They were totally covered in those black covering things, but they were still strapped.
Cops in Algeria have an EXTREMELY brutal reputation. They are known to torture suspects in their police stations. They plant evidence ALL THE TIME. They sometimes use sniper rifles to simply pick off enemies at 500 yards instead of even trying to make an arrest. They have even used ROADSIDE BOMBS to wipe out enemies. The cops – using roadside bombs!
Anyhow, American cops are sort of in-between Austrian cops and Algerian cops. They stress out the American people to some extent, and as a result, a lot of Americans feel the need to “step up their game” and carry firearms as well.
Does this theory make sense?
