Yes, I've seen some of your cops and couldn't tell the difference between them and ours and France's and Germany's et al. Even ours did not look like something out of some of some fascist nightmare until relatively recently.

I'm not sure when they were transformed from normal cops to what look and act like some futuristic characters in some violent video game who view the civilian population as the enemy. We didn't really notice the change until the Occupy movement began.

Some Corporation is making a fortune on the robo gear they all wear though, globally. And the weapons they are being supplied with.
