The British police
editPeople might think this is a modern view of British police but this is an American cop talking about them in this 1920 novel: 'Your English police know most things,' he drawled, 'but you've sort of got some peculiar laws in your country. With us, if we don't like a man— something happens. He kind o' ceases to sit up and take nourishment. But over here, the more scurrilous he is, the more he talks bloodshed and riot, the more constables does he get to guard him from catching cold.' (80.31.146.92 (talk) 18:27, 5 July 2015 (UTC))
