    Here in Denmark we had a once-in-a-blue-moon shooting occur in the shopping mall called “Field’s”.

    Police geared with MP5’s arrived within 10 minutes and barely waited at all storming into the shopping center. Other armed police were actively doing evacuation duty.

    A sniper in a helicopter eventually saw the shooter trying to escape the shopping center through a utility door, and he subsequently got caught.

    This happened the same year police in America were seen, fully armed, waiting outside a school because it was “too dangerous” to enter.

      doesn’t Denmark require national service for two years?

      if so, those cops were already better trained than any US cop and it’s unfair to compare them.
