- inactive, on 04/15/2009, -0/+38These are NEW rules???
- mdepaul, on 04/15/2009, -1/+33Awww, Putin is taking the fun out of everything.
- inactive, on 04/16/2009, -0/+29How about just regular sex?
- inactive, on 04/16/2009, -2/+19Poor Russian cops... they won't be able to work properly without wild sex. And they will die of hunger without bribes.
- moxley, on 04/16/2009, -0/+12So basically all this is saying is that they can no longer emulate Chicago police?
- ShannonGB, on 04/16/2009, -0/+12And down goes the number of applicants in the Russian Police Force!
- inactive, on 04/16/2009, -0/+10Wake me up when American police start following these rules.
- spegman, on 04/16/2009, -0/+8damn rules
- hasslinthehoff, on 04/16/2009, -0/+8The LAPD, however, remains intransigent...
- haiduz, on 04/16/2009, -2/+9For those that live in America, take my word and be happy for it. That country is *****.
- jason80, on 04/16/2009, -0/+7Dude in the picture probably didn't get the memo.
- Crazyredivan, on 04/16/2009, -1/+8I'm not sure why I'm getting dugg down: I was there in 2007. Several of my friends in my class had to pay bribes for little things like just taking pictures. It's an unnerving sight to have 3 cops riding around in cars just jump out and start harassing and beating people- I saw that several times in my month there.
We were instructed to never make eye-contact with the police and to always have some American cash on hand for a bribe. To me, that is a good example of a scary police force. - richmomz, on 04/16/2009, -1/+6It gets better! "Drinking on duty, talking on cell phones on public transport, using drugs, offering or accepting bribes and engaging in "gross jokes and wicked irony" are also out."
So what are they supposed to do now, enforce the law all day long? Peh! - Neverclear, on 04/16/2009, -0/+5One man's regular is another man's testicle clamps, hot sauce, and butt plugs.
- inactive, on 04/16/2009, -0/+4living in nyc, cops beat you, rob you, or sodomize you with their batons. see google for stories.
- derek20cali, on 04/16/2009, -2/+6@americanoboy
You're comparing apples and oranges. Police brutality in the U.S. is an isolated event. In Russia, it seems more like the norm. - lukasmack, on 04/16/2009, -0/+4"Drinking on duty, talking on cell phones on public transport, using drugs, offering or accepting bribes and engaging in "gross jokes and wicked irony" are also out. (See 10 things to do in Moscow.) "
They really need to sort out those auto-generated links.
Or maybe not cause it creates funny things like this. - LonesomeFighter, on 04/16/2009, -3/+6My economics teacher tolled us a story (he from the Ukraine and was int he Soviet Army), there will be check points in Russia and you had to have a first aid kit in your car. You stop at check points and cop asks to see first aid kit, if you have it all they say your bandaids or something looks old and you owe the cop money. So you pay, cuz you want to live and move on, and you enter another check point a couple miles down the road. In the end, my teacher moved to America.
- kingmanic, on 04/16/2009, -1/+4Vodka.
- anubis2night, on 04/16/2009, -0/+3hey they could always come to America, the police unions would get them off every time
- inactive, on 04/16/2009, -0/+2So the cops are taking a pay cut? Hard times huh?
- inactive, on 04/16/2009, -1/+3I QUIT!
- richmomz, on 04/16/2009, -2/+4Well, I guess as long as they can still beat people everything's cool. /s
- GoatMonkey2112, on 04/16/2009, -0/+2In other news: Entire Russian police force quits in one day.
- vic42482, on 04/16/2009, -1/+3Russian cops are no joke. You think that all that crap with tasers in US is bad. In Russian they can literally do whatever the hell they want.
Bribing cops is like an everyday accepted part of living there.
It appears just now they are trying to actually make them somewhat decent. - deathandtaverns, on 04/16/2009, -2/+4if they break those rules can they get out of it by bribing or having sex with who is ever investigating them?
- RichMUrrills, on 04/16/2009, -1/+3*Refrains from going for the obvious meme*
- Vosona, on 04/16/2009, -2/+4The thing is though, Russia is not the Soviet Union. Also Ukraine sucks.
- Crazyredivan, on 04/15/2009, -4/+6Yeah...Russian cops are scary. They are more para-military than straight cop.
- ElGubrush, on 04/18/2009, -0/+2YOU CAN TAKE MY BRIBES, BUT YOU CAN NEVER TAKE MY WICKED IRONY!!!
- pandawa, on 04/16/2009, -0/+1let's all welcome the Russian police into 21st cent/ society.
waitaminute
no drugs or sex?
thats some *****. best part of the job - EasternWind, on 04/16/2009, -1/+2If anything the Russian Police are probably 10 times better than American police because they still see people as people and not criminals.
- raustin, on 04/16/2009, -0/+1bummer dude... there go the perks.
- EdgarVerona, on 04/16/2009, -0/+1I guess it's a case of "better late than never"...?
- LonesomeFighter, on 04/16/2009, -0/+1article says they can't drink it on duty anymore
- lizard450, on 04/16/2009, -1/+2I wonder if Mexico had made this kind of decree if they would still be in the predicament they are in now?... hmm... YUP!
- Vosona, on 04/16/2009, -1/+2I was thinking more along the lines of "awesome".
- CynicalTyler, on 04/16/2009, -1/+2"engaging in 'gross jokes and wicked irony' [is] also out"
Awww, com'on Russia. Have a sense of humor! So I tea-bagged Lenin's body, what's the big deal?! - BenTheTank, on 04/16/2009, -1/+2Tell us about your experiences with Russian cops? Sounds interesting.
- BabyWookie, on 04/17/2009, -0/+1The Russian slang for cop is "musor", which translates to "trash".
- SirCharge, on 04/19/2009, -0/+1I guess without the wild sex they'll have to get off somehow.
I just don't think of unions being like that. - apostate38, on 04/17/2009, -0/+1
"Drinking on duty, talking on cell phones on public transport, using drugs, offering or accepting bribes and engaging in "gross jokes and wicked irony" are also out. (See 10 things to do in Moscow.) "
love the inappropriate link placement! - shady8x, on 04/17/2009, -0/+1@americanoboy
If you took all the terrible things that cops in USA did over the last 50 years and compared them to about month's worth of abuses in Russia... well there is a reason I don't live there anymore... - inactive, on 04/17/2009, -0/+1In Guatemala it is technically illegal to accept or offer bribes, but everybody still has to pay bribes anyway.
- SirCharge, on 04/19/2009, -0/+1And then they extort those people and have sex with them.
- inactive, on 04/17/2009, -0/+1Russians pay 316 Billion US Dollars in Bribes... a Year!
http://www.russiablog.org/2005/10/316_billion_us_d ... - schrutefan, on 04/17/2009, -0/+1The two are not mutually exclusive.
- katyalipich, on 04/16/2009, -0/+1damn. does that mean i have to start paying for those tickets?
- draxenato, on 04/16/2009, -0/+1Somehow I don't think there'll be a CSI:Moscow anytime soon
