I think police brutality has a lot to do with the history of the police force.
Go to Hamburg, Bremen or Bonn - smily faces in green uniforms with alot of patience.
Go to east Germany, where many cops also worked in the GDR cracking down on protesters against the former communist regime and were 3 out of 10 cops are Stasis and where the totalitarian structures of the past havent yet been fully worked up - increasing police brutality.
Greece, where the police was used by the regime which collapsed in 1975 - same story.
Spain - I have oftern heared from spaniards that the spanish police has lost francos protection in 1975 but in alot of cases hasnt yet lost its arrogance.
Post war western germany was alo notorious for having a brutal police force consisting of former nazi police officers.
France, where the police was used to crack down on racial minorities is notorious for it`s racist police.
And I guess there must be some historic structure within the american police which explains police brutality there.
