Norway police's chilled way with drunk wows US
Footage of the humorous, laid-back way two Norwegian policeman cope with a combative drunk has amazed American viewers after it was posted on the video-sharing website LiveLeak.
Man stopped for drink-driving on wheelchair (12 Dec 13) The footage from Nattpatruljen, a Norwegian police reality show, shows two policeman in Tromsø, northern Norway, good-naturedly picking up a drunk and taking him off to a drunk tank in the local jail. “I am not intoxicated for fuck's sake," the man shouts. "The fucking police are hunting me down. I get so fucking angry." To which the police laugh gently, and then apologize for ridiculing him. "You are a little funny right now," one explains. "Can I bring my dick with me?" the man then roars. "Yes if it hangs on," answers the policeman with a chuckle. "The American version would have ended with 16 gunshots at the 0:03 time mark," wrote one of he 70 commentators on the video. "With a taze at the 0:01 mark," wrote another. The video had been viewed 144,700 times by Friday morning. http://www.thelocal.no/20140404/us-wowed-by-norway-polices-chilled-way-with-drunk

1. The voice mod they picked to protect the, um, innocent, was genius.
I do hope they find the right program for Impaired Angry Guy, and since it's Norway they just might.
Nevertheless that guy wouldn't have fared so well in many parts of the U.S.A.. Partly because cops are often humorless, and partly because Impaired Angry Guys and many Cops are obsessed with guns. |

2. Norwegians do have a sense of humor:

3. One of the comments was pretty funny -
said a drunk Norwegian speaking with a disguised voice sounds like Klingon.
