This is Europe.
Edit: this is a reference. If you don’t get the reference look it up or save your breath.
Yeah, because cops from other continents, such as North America, would famously NEVER be needlessly violent towards black people.. 🙄
Well the thing is, this isn't just a thing in Spain, or just a thing in Germany, or just a thing in France, or just a thin in Italy, or Croatio, or Hungary, or Austria, the Netherlands, or Belgium or Poland...
It is a specifically european problem in the context of the EU, as opposed to just a problem in a single member state.
That doesn't deny that it is also a problem on other continents.
I would say police brutality does not really knows border, a truly international habit. And actually Europe, at least some places are rather less into it than it's the case around the world.
