Default Re: Are Europeans smarter/ more responsible than Americans?

[ QUOTE ]
In America if you get nailed with underage drinking your parents yell at you. And you lose your Drivers Licence for a while.

In Europe the Polizei and other police groups would just beat the living hell out of you. Good Deterrent.

[/ QUOTE ]European police are not usually simply beating up drunkards. They arrest them if they are DUI or "causing a distrubrance". If they get violent, they get smacked, yes. From what I know and have seen, the police in Europe are like the American police, only with a much less violent record, e.g. the rules about the Polizei shooting at people are generally more strict in Europe.
