- American Couple Reacts: "Educated" American vs British Police In London! EMBARRASSING! FIRST TIME REACTION! How do you embarrass, shame and disgust an entire nation? Simple, be the guy in this video! The original video was titled: American vs British Police Gets Owned. That's completely deceiving and untrue! This is a different kind of reaction to what we normally do. This really made us angry, incredibly frustrated and embarrassed as Americans! However, please do NOT let the ignorance of some, paint a picture of everyone! That is also ignorance. As frustrating as this was too watch, we can all agree that the Police have a job to do and they should be respected. The British Police Officers in this video deserve a TON of credit for their incredible patience! Whenever visiting another country, being respectful should be the simplest concept. We certainly know that, sadly some don't. Entitlement and arrogance definitely didn't serve this guy well, as it shouldn't have! Thank you SO much for watching!

Loved the use of wanka and Tossa, ladies love your reactions, this guy definitely does not represent an American as watching your videos and other reaction videos shows not all are like this, let’s face it you can get this any where
Sorry so much to said I am alone 3.33mins in to it but I will keep quiet for now
Natasha would have been just the officer needed in that situation: "Officer why are you taking your uniform jacket and hat off? Officer why are you opening your shirt cufflinks and rolling up your sleeves and why did you say your fellow officers -"" I'm starting my vacation now."" And why... * *fist punch sounds* *"
it`s not woke crap it`s libertarian crap!
24 hours
In the UK, the police have powers to detain those they have arrested on suspicion of committing a crime for up to 24 hours, or up to 96 hours in some serious circumstances such as homicide cases1. The United Kingdom Terrorism Act permits an arrestee to be detained for up to 14 days and without charge1. The police also have separate powers to detain those suspected of terrorism offences under Part V and Schedule 8 of the Terrorism Act 20002. There are 3 exceptions to the general rule that a Police Officer grabbing hold of a person or impeding their freedom of movement to ‘detain’ them without arresting them is unlawful3
I’m an ex-Officer in the UK. When he mentioned he’s American, I would have responded saying, “with all due respect, you’re not in America, and the way you’re acting at the moment, refusing to cooperate, is making me suspect your involvement in this even further. So if I were you, I’d sit down, shut up, and let us get to the bottom of what’s happened here before your situation gets any worse, do you understand me?”. With those sorts of people you have to put them in their place very quickly or else they will take advantage of you.
Totally agree with your comment. what's he hiding. If this person had acted his age and not his shoe size, he would have been on his way in a couple of minutes. Would his attitude have been the same if this had taken place is the US.
Sadly I think he would. As we know America has a constitution of citizens rights which are sometimes disregarded by some figures of authority, hence all the questions of am I being detained. However, being in the UK, if he's a visitor he shouldn't assume the same rules apply and would be better to ask a reasonable question, listen to the answer and keep his mouth shut. Which is also a right btw.
Both my sisters are with Merseyside, if this muppet tried this routine with my kid sisters? He'd be on a hiding to nothing!🤣🤣🤣
If he’s innocent, he’s got nothing to hide. He’s just trying to get a rise out of the police officers. I was stopped in my car once by the police early morning. I signalled to him that I would carry on a bit further to a safe stopping place. Pulled over, he checked my details, insurance etc and wished me a good day and sent me on my way. No stress on either side, no malice - he’s just doing his job and I had nothing to hide so I don’t see what the issue is that some people have. Just a weird hatred of the police I guess.
I would be less polite.
This guy wasn't an embarrassment to Americans only. He was an embarrassment to "normal" human beings everywhere.
Well said!
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow here is a fun fact he was charged with an assault put in prison and then deported
@@MrCoxy38Nope. He tried to leave and was arrested and detained at the police station for several hours. I bet it really pissed him off.
@@MrCoxy38 👏
I think he was trying to play the police are racist card on the back of BLM.
Still can't understand how he thinks he 'owned' the police
You ladies will be pleased to know that this clown was eventually arrested.
In the UK when Police arrest someone it is always 'on suspicion' of something and the person can be held for up to 24 hours without charge. At that point the suspect must be charged, presented to a Magistrate to be held longer or released.
This clown was released 'without charge' after just over 23 hours in a Police Cell...... I am sure the local Police were not making a point ... No really 🤣🤣
The REAL joke is this guy posted this on his YT channel alleging he schooled British cops. However the comments section was 90% saying he was actually bit of a plank.
Nice one by the police, hope they got their point across, they could have also have deported him immediately to American soil, ie the American Embassy, where he would have had to stay until he could have been legally escorted to transport destined for the American homeland.
@@user-qj7et4wv3q but would the staff at the American Embassy have been detaining him illegally? 🤔 😂😂
What's his YT?
@@ileana8360 no its classed as American soil, the problem then becomes theirs to return him to the homeland, the embassy is there to aid their own citizens, and who cares anyway as long as he is not our problem.
@@user-qj7et4wv3q I made a joke.
As a Brit, you two are the kind of citizens that both the US and the UK need right now. You are proper, decent people
Seconded.
I like these ladies, but there are times when we should question 'authority'... obviously this wasn't one of them.
Of course, I know it's not all Americans, but we do get a large number of US citizens who visit our shores and insist that US laws, rather than UK laws should be applied to them during their visit, for the simple reason that "they're American".
This arrogance seems to know no limits. I've even seen an example of an American assuming his 'right to bear arms' should be recognised & honoured in the UK. (Yeah, mate - just you try walking the streets of the UK carrying a handgun, and see where your precious '2nd amendment' gets you in THIS foreign country!)
I know of a Shooting Range in Scotland that was immediately closed down by the Scottish Police because visiting Americans brought semi-auto .50 calibre rifles with them, I have no idea how they managed to get these in the country through a Scottish Airport, but a noise complaint from a local Scottish person caused the Police to investigate the incident.
Not sure whether the American's got 5 years mandatory in a Scottish Prison, or had their weapons seized and destroyed by the Scottish Police, but the range and club in question has never opened since; as the Police issue permission for these ranges, and they can be revoked and never issued again.
So anyone attempting to bring a prohibited firearm into the UK, you should expect that there is no defence (there is no right to bear arms, you need to honestly apply for a permit under Firearms Act 1968, and as these are classed as Prohibited Weapons under UK Law you would never get a permit), it is mandatory sentencing, you will get 5 years inside, and it is at the discretion of the country where the offence took place whether you are allowed to serve the sentence in a Federal Prison in the US, or remain here at His Majesty's Pleasure.
Asking whether you're being 'detained' whilst Armed Officers have their MP5's aimed at your centre mass might be a tad inappropriate...
OMG. I’m shocked. WTF.
@@Judge_Dreddare they armed ?
@@dianeshelton9592No, of course not. Only in exceptional circumstances, like a terrorist attack.
@@user-fq8rs7rz3i then why did you say they were pointing a weapon at them?
I am Australian/British and British police are quite mild mannered. They prefer to establish a relationship and communicate, and it’s about mutual respect. Fancy trying to school a police person according to American laws, when not in America.
Will the UK protect my second amendment?
@@dutchman7623what? 😂
Sadly, this kind of entitlement of US citizens abroad is not that uncommon.
There is no second amendment in the UK @@dutchman7623
There is an even funnier video where some Sovereign Citizen jerk was trying to do his I was not driving I was travelling to the Garda (Irish Police). Super patient copper but the jerk got nowhere and eventually had his car seized!
@@dutchman7623 We don't have "Amendments" in the UK.
Reminds me of an American tourrist who brought a handgun in her carry on luggage on a plane to Sydney. When it was found and she was interviewed by the Australian police, she said that as an US citizen she was protected under the second amendment. Some Americans really shouldn't travel.
Did she make her escape while the Australian police were on the floor laughing? LOL!
6:05 "I'm American, so I know." If ever there was an example of the Dunning-Kruger effect, that's it.
Aware that 99.99% of Americans visiting the UK do not behave like this. More importantly "am I free to go" after posting this.
Yes, Margaret, you are free to go. 🌷😂
99.99%? LMAO
you will be detained here until you have read all the comments.
Sadly it happens more often than you’d think.
Just because they are female officers they deserve respect like the male ones are.
Absolutely!
All carried out without GUNS!
Maybe more so.
@@w0033944No. They deserve EQUAL respect.
You're right - just that I imagine it takes more bravery for a female.@@Jumpyman_thegamerYT
I continue to be impressed that they didn't laugh in his face at 'I'm an American, so I know'. Amazed that the guy posted this exchange thinking he 'owned' the police.
This has nothing to do with wokism, this guy is a Sovereign Citizen who thinks his rights in the USA apply globally. Respect for the British police for staying calm.
I was coming to say this! 👏
I think they misunderstood why he was bringing up race. His point was if there's a description, then the police must know the culprits' race, meaning they can't both match the description.
Doesn't make him any less dumb of course, as the police even said to him there are other reasons they wanted him to wait, including being a possible witness or accomplice. But yeah, he wasn't pulling the race card.
As a "Sovereign Citizen" he thinks he has rights he doesn't even have in the USA. They try this same script at home and get the same sort of response but in a different accent.
@@MrEsphoenix They have to legally state all reasons and the specific legal premise that makes the reasons a 'resasonable suspicion' (not remotely subjective). Vaguely looking like someone around the corner who may or may not look like the person to the extend they can not determine if he or she was a white or black person and "for other reasons" would not be sufficient to legally detain in the UK. Otherwise, the officer could literally walk up to anyone and state that rubbish.
@@silverfox74 FYI, being at the scene of a crime is reasonable suspicion.
They were detained and held for 24 hours, karma
Hopefully he was then deported back to the US for being a jerk.
Good if true.
They can sue the police for if no changes was made against them
@waynegray2284 and they would lose. A criminal investigation was underway, and this disrespectful prick was holding-up 5 officers from performing their duties. The guy is lucky he wasn't charged for disruptive behaviour at a crime scene.
@@waynegray2284 I think in Finland the Police have the right to hold you in custody for 24 hours if needed, even if you would not be charged on anything afterwards. You can try to sue, but that won't go anywhere.
he crapped his pants when the man turned up says a lot about this so glad you ladies spotted that!sharp as a razor as always much respect!!
I work in a court and see a lot of police body worn footage, I always notice how polite and calm and patient our police are. Big love ❤
Police are particularly polite when they have the camera going...... it is not accidental. It is professionally capturing the nice moments you had while talking to the defendant...
@colonelfustercluck486 Wrong. They must be turned on when on the way to an incident and left on until the end. So any time the police are called, the camera is on. If you stop an officer in the street for a chat, it probably isn't. But in an incident, always - start to finish.
I live and work in the most tourist-heavy parts of London, and can I just say that the vast majority of Americans I interact with are lovely. In fact I really appreciate the warmth and enthusiasm that most Americans exude. I would suggest that this person would be one of the bad guys no matter what country he was born in.
Don't feel bad ladies, we know he doesn't represent the U.S. he'd be a total knob from any country and sadly even our own. I can see your embarrassment and frustration, that's how I feel when I see one of our own behaving badly. 💐
Appreciate the words
Yes - Knob
@thenatashadebbieshow
'Knob' - another great UKism to add to your vocab, Natasha! 😂 I'm from the South of England, but the word sounds even better when said in any of the many northern UK accents 🤣
Hi. I’ve seen the original video before and I think most of the UK comments on it were why does this man think that he’s in the USA and so is doing the usual “sovereign citizen” spiel of quoting his rights under the US Constitution when he’s in the UK (or at least acting as if he’s speaking to a US police officer rather than a UK police constable)? He is being confrontational for no reason other than he believes he doesn’t have to obey the UK law and is filming it to prove how he can provoke a police constable into violating his rights. I saw a similar one in the Republic of Ireland where a US citizen on holiday there refused to comprehend that the US Amendments he was quoting did not have any basis in law outside of the US.
UK's "Written" constitution is Union with Scotland/England Act 1707. In law "Constitutional norms" apply. The US Constitution is a recognized Constitutional norm in 195 countries including England.
Lord Diplock said “A constitution, and in particular that part of it which protects and entrenches fundamental rights and freedoms to which all persons in the state are to be entitled, is to be given a generous and purposive construction. In the construction of statutory provisions which contravene human rights and freedoms there is a presumption of constitutionality.” Attorney-General of The Gambia -v- Momodou Jobe [1984] AC 689.
Lord Diplock said : "it cannot be too strongly emphasised that the British constitution, though largely unwritten, is firmly based upon the separation of powers; Parliament makes the laws, the judiciary interpret them...the role of the judiciary is confined to ascertaining from the words that Parliament has approved as expressing its intention what that intention was, and to giving effect to it. Where the meaning of the statutory words is plain and unambiguous it is not for the judges to invent fancied ambiguities as an excuse for failing to give effect to its plain meaning because they themselves consider that the consequences of doing so would be inexpedient, or even unjust or immoral..." Duport Steels Ltd -v- Sirs [1980] 1 WLR 142; [1980] 1 All ER 529.
Laws J said “If subordinate legislation cannot be construed in a way that makes it compatible with fundamental rights, it will be declared ultra vires.” Regina -v- Lord Chancellor ex parte John Witham [1997] EWHC Admin 237; [1998] QB 575.
Lord Bingham of Cornhill said : "As in the case of any other instrument, the court must begin its task of constitutional interpretation by carefully considering the language used in the Constitution. But it does not treat the language of the Constitution as if it were found in a will or a deed or a charterparty. A generous and purposive interpretation is to be given to constitutional provisions protecting human rights." Reyes v The Queen [2002] AC 235, 246, para 26.
The American was correct. You bootlickers are wrong. The two women commenting think police have authority. They don't unless an actual offence has taken place. Female police are scientifically proven to be more aggressive when they perceive no threat. Why does he need to respect people in authority abusing his rights.
Richard !!
@@thefoxhat6163 I don’t see how that means that US law or the US constitution applies in the UK as I never said we don’t have a constitution, i said the US constitution does not apply. Any similar laws are because the are UK law, not because they are US law.
@@user-eb1sd2vj9r Yet case law from the State of Texas has been cited & accepted in a Scottish court (Mallum Prohibitum). I'm absolutely certain Constitutional Case Law from the US Supreme Court would be equally admissible in court. In fact, Lord Carloway's Policing Review & Lord Gill's Judicial Review both cite case law from a number of countries to make their point.
"The United States Supreme Court had decided in Lawrence v Texas that non-commercial, private intimacy was a protected right, the law making fornication a crime was unconstitutional. Fornication is directly analogous to driving in this context as both are ‘mallum prohibitum’ and both are ‘unconstitutional’. Whilst court decisions from other common law jurisdictions are not binding upon British courts they are considered persuasive".
That was successfully used in a Scottish court by a man exercising his Constitutional Right to "FULL FREEDOM of intercourse in trade & navigation throughout UK" without a government license to commit the crime of driving. It was determined driving isn't a crime & no government has the power to give out licenses to commit crimes. Being prohibited was considered 'malicious'

My hub and I were stopped by a Mexican Police Officer at the Del Rio (in Texas) - Mexico borderline. All we were doing was walking across the bridge over the Rio Grande just so we could stand at the Border Control point and claim we had “been to Mexico” 😊
We were ushered into a room lit by one single lightbulb…..me thinking “Midnight Express” 😳 and speaking in Spanish, he DEMANDED to know WHY we we walking across the bridge and what “restricted items” were we trying to smuggle back into Texas…. Bearing in mind both of us were only wearing shorts and tee shirts, we didn’t have many hiding places! Smuggling fruit, flowers and alcohol over the border is a very serious offence - we didn’t know this but it happens all the time 🤷🏽♀️
Anyway, trying hard to understand him as he spoke a mixture of Spanish and English we were told to empty pockets, lift up the shorts etc - bearing in mind this Police Officer had two guns and a row of bullets as a decoration around his chest - we would have done ANYTHING he asked, as we were literally scared of “what might happen” if we disobeyed him! He then demanded that we empty our bum bags we both had. All the contents tipped out on the table and suddenly the Police Officer spotted my Blue British passport….
He grabbed my Passport, waved it in the air and screamed with happiness and said in his Spanish accent “aaaaahhh you are Eeeeengleeesh?!” Princess Diana, David Beckham! We said yes and he looked back smiling broadly and said “s’ok you can go now, you want to see Rio Grande in Mexico, no problemo, you is Eeenglish you like to do that, you no take restricted items (he meant bottles of high proofed tequila!) back to USA, you want to walk on bridge, you like see river, you niiiice peoplesss….please be happppyyy and say you like Mexico, yes?
Honest to him upstairs, if that Policeman had asked me to dance the fandango whilst wearing a pineapple on my head, guess what? I would have! In a foreign country, if arrested by an Officer of the Law, just do what they ask and don’t answer back!! I’m forever grateful to have been “saved” by a member of the Royal Family and some bloke that played football for Man Utd!! 😂 thank you Becks!
The "Best" part of all of this, is he uploaded the video, thinking it made him look cool and intelligent.
If it helps to cheer you up a little bit, they locked him up in a police cell for 20 hours after this! 😁
He must have tried to leave resulting in his arrest and now a Police record . Good luck with the Visa.

"On what grounds? I'm American so I know" 🤣 The "educated American" is very modest about himself. It's hard not to laugh.
The Dunning-Kruger syndrome/effect springs to mind. I deduce it's not the first time this "educated American" has had an antagonistic encounter with police (in the US) or even the UK.
Well the reason is that the "educated American" has much to be modest about..... that's why it's amusing.
You may have a syndrome or an effect, the British Police don't give a S*^T about syndromes and effects. You'll still get arrested. But tell the Judge with soft violin music going... it may affect the sentence.For instance you may get 10 years in a mental institution to assist curing your mental problems......
YOU will be free or locked up according to British law........note that your conduct may affect this process, so I advise be cooperative and pleasant. You will then be much more likely to walk away from your interaction with British police..... or Australian or NZ police and any other police service that police in a similar way
Hi Ladies, thank you so so much for posting this video and bringing what is a growing issue here to a wider audience. I think part of this ever-increasing problem is that a fair amount of Americans now see the United Kingdom as "quaint" and unimportant/insignificant, so they come here with a bunch of entitled behaviours, and they genuinely believe they are superior and don't have to treat even authority figures with respect. I'll give an example: when my son was young, I took him and a friend into the centre of London for the day (we live in the 'burbs) We visited museums and smaller art galleries and ended up at the National Portrait Gallery, which the boys loved. We had a little time left when we finished at the Gallery, so I took the boys to Horseguards Parade as my Great Grandfather was a Regimental Sargeant Major in the Royal Horse Artillery. We got to the parade ground and enjoyed watching the guards and beautiful horses in silent awe. Then a bunch of about 30 American high schoolers showed up with a male teacher in clearly reluctant tow. They IMMEDIATELY began loudly mocking the guards on parade and laughing at our military and traditions. There is a heavy spiked low chain that separates the parade ground and the street. Perhaps 6 or 7 students each put a foot up on this low chain fence. When one of the guards called over to "get OFF the fence" they summilarily refused, choosing instead to now stamp on the fence repeatedly whilst hurling a barrage of abuse at the Guard and our soldiers. I spoke to their teacher and asked him why he wasn't stopping them, and the reply came back that they were "just being kids" and so they were "letting off steam". He did absolutely NOTHING to stop them or try to instil some manners in them. I cannot stress enough how complicit he was.......so I took matters into my own hands. I am disabled and am now in a powerchair, but at the time I walked using two armband crutches, so I slowly made my way through the group until I was standing in front of them. First though, please allow me to explain why I was compelled to do what I did next😊...I too am from a massive military family spanning generations, and the Army, Navy and the Royal Airforce. My Grandfather was blown up twice in the war and still went back for more. He started the war at 6ft2 and by the end he was 5ft10! His brother. my Great Uncle Arthur had a wooden leg, and when a very young me asked him why he had it, he replied "I was careless and lost the real one somewhere over Dresden". My Father's eldest brother was in the Parachute Regiment until his jeep was blown up in Cyprus in 1953 and his legs were completely crushed. The same surgeon who had operated on my Grandfather during the war also operated on my Uncle and miraculously saved his legs. It turned out he was the Surgeon for the Royal Family! My Father was also in the Parachute Regiment and was at the battle of Plamman Mapu, amongst other conflicts. My father saw active service and killed his first enemy when he was only 18 years old, yet somehow he is the most kind, compassionate and most loving man I have ever known. My Mother worked for the Army whilst they were trialling a new parachuting technique called Lamoine Parachuting (we now call it parascending) and so she became the first woman in the world to parascend. Last but by no means least my father's cousin was Air Vice Marshall and Aide de Camp to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth ii. There are many many other members of my family who were in the military over the last few hundred years and a lot of them gave up life and/or limb to defend the freedoms we enjoy today. Its because of this that my blood boiled when I saw what the American high school kids were doing to the soldiers on duty, and so I stood in front of them and let loose torrent after torrent of unadulterated RAGE, at their audacity, disregard and disrespect. I actually managed to stun them into silence! Then I turned on the teacher and had a few (very choice) nuggets of wisdom to share with him also!
As long as I live I will never understand both why and how some people are now SO entitled that decency and respect for the place you are in and the people around you has sadly now become a nostalgic memory 😔 I have been lucky in my life to have visited many countries, and each time I have found my long dead Grandfathers words of travel wisdom still ringing in my ears; No1) When in Rome, do as the Romans do
No2) Treat everybody with the same dignity and respect as you expect for yourself, until such time as they may show they dont deserve it......then kick them in the crotch
Sorry for the rant, but this is something i feel strongly about xx
If he’d been listening instead of talking over the police officer he’d have known that the reason his friend couldn’t use the toilet was because the toilet area was the crime scene. They weren’t about to let him wander in there potentially destroying evidence.
The internet is full of videos showing Americans in a bad light but I understand that the vast majority of people are good, respectful, and responsible people, no matter what country they come from.
we are all human, there are good and bad in all of us, none of us are perfect, no matter where we come from
As an ex-pat American living in England since ‘87, not only did I have the exactly the same feelings about these two twits as you, I have been sent or shown the video repeatedly since it came out with “Have you seen this? What do you think? Are all Americans like this?”. For the record - yes, I HATE IT, and NO. Love you two ladies, thanks for reacting 🥰

I've seen this original video a couple of times now- and nearly didn't even start watching your reaction because it's SO APPALLING!!! But then, I thought I'd give it a go, to see your reactions.
The one positive is the exemplary way the police officers involved kept their cool.
The guy definitely would have benfitted from having Debbie as his Mom growing up! He'd have learned some respect.
He can use the bathroom at the police station if he wants to.
Lots of bottles on that wall he could have peed into one of them.
The joke is that he shared the clip suggesting he “owned them” meanwhile half of the world, including his own country folk said nope! I think it was a given you would respond as you did coming from military families.
Yeah the original video was called something like “American owns British cops”.
And then it went viral because everyone thought he was a prat.
A total lack of self-awareness.
He even tried to argue that the fact they detained him for 24 hours in a cell proves he won lol
I think he sued them for £3,350 (about US$5,000) for unlawful detainment so I guess he did in the end. The officer would have been seriously reprimanded for that to.
@Silver749 is there any actual proof of that? Although I guess it could be true, It seems unlikely
Hi Girls , I am very surprised that this guy did not start quoting his rights a guaranteed by the us constitution , In a previous job I had the constitution used against me when I refused to accept us dollars in a scottish bar, it took 10 minutes to explain that his dollars were not legal currency , and his constutional rights as a yank were only applicable in the usa, he was gently encouraged to leave the premises by our door steward .
Thankfully I never met another one like that.😁
The patience of these police officers is incredible.
if you make an arrest, get into a fight or anything......... if you are a Constable /Sergeant in their police, it would take another shift to do all the paperwork. That's why they try to de-escalate a situation. Any action over there equals a heap of paperwork.
Wow, BIG KUDOS to the way those police officers handled that situation. I was in utter disbelief at how that dude thought he was above everyone else. I don’t know very many Americans, however the ones I do know are lovely people who are vey respectful. He is just a bad egg in the basket. Thanks N & D ❤❤
This guy could have been an assailant. Of course he isn’t free to go. The PC explained that in the first sentences. Motormouth wasn’t listening
yes; it's as if he's saying, i am not involved, therefore i am free to go . . . as distinct from the assailant, who would presumably say, i am the assailant . . .
Im so glad you both reacted to this video
Unfortunately quite a few US tourists in the UK are wealthy & entitled. The thing is Brits aren't impressed by money & find them disrespectful. This is not a judgement on all Americans. I'm from a UK police family & these officers were totally within their rights to arrest this guy for obstruction. You can be legally detained without arrest or charge whilst investigations are ongoing. He seemed to particularly disrespect the female officers. Those cops would have had a good laugh at his expense at the end of their shift. Being polite doesn't mean you accept what they say, just tolerate their stupidity to de- escalte a situation. UK police have to have a University degree - he was so rude & patronising
Debbie is so right. Someone has been assaulted & he is keeping the police from doing their job. Also good point about his manner changing with the male copper.
In Australia; this behaviour is worthy of arrest. Disorderly conduct, and obstruct police (wasting time that should be spent ,collecting information about the assault)
From what i understand he was arrested and held in police cell for just over 23 hours
When I lived in America and a police officer stopped me I was polite. I know the crap and dangers officers face and I wanted him to know I was cooperating. It turned out my decals were out of date. Did he cite me and fine me? No he respectfully asked me to get them sorted out with the DMV and let me continue on my way. I am the son of a British Police officer and I have always respected police in every nation I have lived in. It costs nothing to be polite..
I love how the British Police will not be annoyed or upset. They have only had guns for a few years, they don’t need them and there are many black people in England. He needs to know he is in another Country as a guest. He is supposed to be representing his Country and they ignore his rudeness and carry on. He calls them uneducated like he is educated and he doesn’t get a rise out of any of them. He didn’t own them. Why does he believe that England has the same laws he grew up with?
I agree with you that I have yet to see any of the police involved being “owned”.
I can think of one, the guy who got away from the police in a Morris Minor 😂😂. Another almost made it in a Reliant Robin 🤣🤣🤣
@@Thenerdywalrus Rodney and Del Boy by any chance? 🤣😂😅
I could not be a police officer, there’s no way I could have remained calm as they did hats off to them lol
Thats why they have en mass resignations and can't recruit quality officers. The police is going downhill very fast. Public confidence is at an all time low. Even the Commissioner has placed the met under special measures for internal investigations to cut out the bad apples. It's really bad.
I have mate who was a copper in Brisbane and about 20yrs ago during schoolies week, schoolies week is when all the high schoolers finish up and its party week on the Gold coast, he got a call about a couple of blokes who were not acting clean and sober. When he got there a couple drunks came wandering over asking for him to" call a cab". A cab not a taxi so that sent his spidery sense tingling. One bloke said you're the concierge call us a cab. Dave is 6'.4 and about 230lbs and is an ex soldier, So him and his offsider were having a good giggle till this countryman of yours started stabbing him in the chest with is finger. "You know I'm a cop" says Dave, one thing you never do is touch them. Needless to say as Dave puts it the fun started then with the I'm an American, you can't arrest me, so he did.
Not all Americans obviously, but you’d be surprised how many Americans think US laws apply in other countries. When I was in the Royal Air Force we had a US base nearby and we used to get so much sh*t from some of your military think they are above the law in the UK. Friends in the police here have told me this kind of thing happens a lot, especially in London.
The irony is, they could have just chatted with the two women cops, bit of charm and that, and been out of there in 20 minutes leaving a good impression.
Instead, they got all night in for being dick heads.
Arrested for obstruction I would imagine.
Exactly ! If he would just shut up, he would have been out of there already !!!
Yes he was (not the other guy) and held for just over 23 hours. And then released 'without charge' which I am sure was done to shut him up AND make a point!
I can't help but wonder if the other guy was a friend of his or a stranger going "Shut up you that the more you argue the longer I can't go to the toilet."
obstructing an officer in the course of his duty is still an offence, from Victorian times
Yep! He spent just over 23 hours in custody without charge....completely legal. Twenty-four hours to charge or release.....gave him some nasty medicine!! 😂🇬🇧
Videos like this make me proud of our those officers, who are routinely getting a very tough time from many quarters.
I find your response to this very interesting. I am British and I have exactly the same response every time anyone puts up a bit of film depicting the British as a nation of drunkards. Excess drinking was very much a hobby of, mainly, 18-30 year olds, especially after pub opening hours were extended and supermarkets began to sell cheap alcoholic drinks. Sadly it also became very common for University Student Unions to sell cheap alcohol. Seemingly, it appears to be reducing in the current population. However, as you portrayed, it is embarrassing, painful and really sad to see the behaviour of certain citizens of one’s country being implied as common to all.😢😢😢
What a self entitled brat! Obviously never have been told 'no' in his entire life.
Great reaction ladies. Perfect English swearing as well.
Hi ladies, having visited California twice and Alaska once, I have met many Americans and I have found them all like yourselves, warm, friendly polite, and have very good manners. Another cracking good video thanks Natasha and Debbie 💖😁
Loved Natasha's comment "we're doing the woke crap" this the generation that uses race in every argument
Hi, I have only just discovered you two and I love you both ! Have been back through your vlogs and the one that stands out for me is your reaction to the Proms. Visited your beautiful country many times (New Orleans...N'Awlins... is my guilty pleasure) You epitomize the special relationship between our countries. I adore your patriotism as much as I treasure mine. Stand firm and proud, we are truly family. Big love ❤❤
I love how reinforcements just quietly stroll in.
Loved the “ I’m American I know” !!!!! What does he know
Literally nothing
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow all respect to those police officers I think I would have lost it
How would a US police officer have reacted?
US Police officer would have put him in the back of the Cop car so they didn't have to listen to him
That he is an American I guess. That means very little outside the USA.
Years ago I saw a similar situation on a British TV show called Traffic Cops, the show followed Police officers on Duty in Yorkshire. The American they pulled over assumed that the UK had the same rules for stopping vehicles as American cops and the same detainment rules. The difference is after it was explained to him he backed down and even did a small interview for the show.
Lovele to see you Natasha and Debbie you always cheer me up Love from England Elaine.
That guy is so intelligent that he uploaded this to RUclips. I'm Scottish and I feel so embarrassed for you.
I love watching the both of you. It’s interesting to see the your response to our cultural differences and you are always so respectful. Thank you from Lancashire, England 😀😀😀
Unfortunately there are a lot of 2 year olds believing they are grown ups not just Americans.
When the officer says 'you might be a witness', he replies 'I haven't seen anything'. That could be useful witness information in itself and he should be more cooperative.
Exactly and he might be lying. As if that's all his has to say.
And he has no idea what he hasn't seen because he doesn't know the nature of the incident.
He in no way "schools" the policewoman. How arrogant! If I were in America I would not claim I knew the law and I was eductated, I would politely do what the police told me to do.
You ignore what the police ask you to do here in the UK, you are asking for a night in the cells.
Enjoyed this! Watching from the UK 🇬🇧👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻
I wouldn't try arguing with the police.
If they tell you to move, then move.
If told to stay still, do that.
It's really very simple.
Spoken like proper sheep ignorant of their rights.
Bingo
what a fool. You two represent the true nature of our great alliance not children like him. God bless you and all genuine American patriots.
Goes for me too !
By this man acting like this suggests he is antagonistic and /or maybe done something. In 78-79 I was working in USA in the South I'm from UK a white guy and a lot of my time I was in Black neighbourhoods. The American police officers stopped me a few times I think
they saw it as incongruous. One time they said to me it is strange you a white guy here and and they couldn't understand it. I said I couldn't understand their thinking. However I was polite every time they stopped me and called them Sir, I was fully cooperative and they let me go after 20- 30 min. I didn't think anything of it at the time I guessed that was just the way it was.
He want's grounds? He's refusing to cooperate, so how about "Obstructing the police in the performance of their duties".
Regardless where your from there is always one🇬🇧🇺🇸
It is like he dose not understand that differnt countys have diffrent laws.💚💚
Would a US Police Officer have let him leave a crime scene without permission?
@@malcolmhouston7932 50/50. Depends on their knowledge of law. If they kept him prisoner for no legal reason, the police will pay out compensation. My brother got $170k from the local Sheriff for an unlawful detainment at a crime scene. He's a UK citizen in USA. Rights don't depend on citizenship.
Well since the American president doesn't follow international law why should an American citizen follow international law. If its good enough for Biden it is good enough for all US citizens.
"I'm American, so I know."
"We're not in America right now."
The point he made about "a white guy and a black guy", and only one of them "fitting the description" - even if that IS the case, the fact that they are both in the same place at the same time could mean that one of them is an accessory to the alleged crime, meaning that they could BOTH be guilty unless/until the police can eliminate them from suspicion.
They also were sat in the street drinking beer where the assault took place...just to add a bit of context as to why they were singled out!
I think that guy is very lucky that the British police are so calm, and don't carry guns!! (joke, of course).
You are by far one of the best people to watch 🇬🇧🇬🇧❤️
There are people like him everywhere. Including here in NZ. Just making things difficult for everyone. I just felt like slapping him every time he said "Am I free to go?"😡
Loving your videos. You two are awesome 😊
Seen this vieo a few times and I have to remind myself "Not all Americans" looking forward to you gals' take on it x
We promise, not MOST Americans! 😘
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow we know, it's 1 out of a hundred decides to behave like the stereotypical American tourist, we don't hold it against the lot of you x
how to turn a 5 min stop into a 20 min stop, just shut up and listen and you will be on your way
Exactly!!
24 hour stop, he got locked up lol
Please watch more of these. Natasha's reaction!! I nearly wet myself laughing at her reaction!!
Love you guys 1st time seen you ❤ this video is insane 😮
Wow there are some entitled ,arrogant disrespectful people in this world , this one happens to be American . But they are in every country He has not represented himself well and Natasha and Debbie don’t worry everyone should be aware that he is one guy he does not represent you or your fellow citizens . Well done to the police officers who handled them selves brilliantly
quite rightly you both got angry debbie was on fire as well!!!! loved hearing you both!!!
Every single person in America has spent years in law school ?
In their imaginations !
The bit where he says “I’m an American, so I know…” 😬 Oh dear!
I don’t know much about American law, but I’m pretty sure they don’t have a Section 60 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994 over there.
What a doofus.
That manchild needs to be taught some respect especially to women I'd have arrested him, loving your hair Debbie.
They did arrest him he was detained for 20 hours in a police cell
@@chrisinnes2128 he probably complained there was no room service.
love you ladies!!! your reaction was EPIC!!!!!!!! ill be watching this a million times more!!!!
It is those 2 who should be ashamed not you guys . I worked here in London at an American banks head office in the city , Daily I was working alongside 300 Americans from all over the states . I found them friendly , outgoing ,funny , LOUD , eager to learn about us Brits .We would spend hours over lunch and evenings out discussing our differences , we all learned sooo much , never in 2 years working there did I ever find one that was disrespectful to me , my country or my culture . As for our cops those in the video are pretty typical , cool and calm armed only with a short baton and a pepper spray and are still some of the most approachable cops in the world , who when the chips are down run towards danger while we run from it . A video on US /UK cops comparison could be fun ? Keep making videos and I will keep watching them , love you guys ,if you ever in the UK you both welcome in my home anytime .
Love your videos, our Police are so calm with these situations
You are both so respectful and polite (so very English) 😅. And Debbie, you go girl! 👏
you might as well say, so very american. remember laurel and hardy, were not both, british and american, very polite and mannerly.
Hi Natasha and Debbie, you'd be welcome in my country any time. (New Zealand).
I guess the guy who made the video really thinks he was in the right because *he posted it on RUclips*. He doesn't even understand that he comes off as a right plonker. I'm relieved to see that the police were as restrained as I hoped they would be. Actually the other guy (in the few seconds we saw of his face) appeared to be mildly embarrassed by Camera Guy, if anything.
I love watching you guys, so glad I subscribed,keep up the good work.
Unfortunately this is the impression of unearned entitlement that many Americans give 🇬🇧
He's American, he knows.
Yeah, he knows f-all...
Hello lovely ladles, hope you are keeping well!
The problem with the American gentleman, is he is trying to apply the American constitution to British Law, and whilst we are both free countries, our laws are very different.
Police here in the UK can detain and question if they feel they have reasonable grounds to do so, under sections within the Police And Criminal Evidence and Criminal Justice Acts.
What these acts don't allow is for Police Officers to abuse these powers on a whim or to flex their ego's.
On this occasion, these two gentlemen happened to be in the vicinity of a crime, and were detained until such time as the identiies of the perpetrators confirmed that these two gentlemen were not involved.
It is likely in this case, that any complaint lodged against the Police for unlawful detainment, would probably have been overruled.
I'm English and I thank you for this video. You are two of the very nice folk that I met so many of while I lived in the States. I was only 19 at the time and was a long haired hippy type and yes I did have a few encounters with your own police but I was compliant and polite and I got the same from the officers in return. I hadn't done anything wrong and those officers were only doing their job and I respected that. On each occasion we parted on good terms and once one even bought my girlfriend and I a coffee. Just the way it should be. I was in a foreign Country, did not know the laws but did as I was asked. No problems. That's the way it should be.
At a crime scene where an alleged crime or incident took place in any country, one would expect the people who were present at the scene to stay to help the Police in any country with their enquiries. Parts of the building where the crime scene is will be cordened off, so NO sir you can't go to the bathroom. If the two POI's (persons of interest) co-operated, they would've been long gone within 5mins but with him going around in circles, it just delayed matters further. What this guy was doing is actually a criminal offence, obstruction of a law official in their line of duty and commiting public order offences by being rude and aggressive.
You are the best example of what Americans are. God bless you and your great country.❤
In love with" Debs" saying it hpw it is "this is crap". Well done mate x😊
