Police Officer Test   How do you tell the difference between a Canadian Police Officer, an Australian Police Officer, an American Police Officer and a Scottishpolice officer?   QUESTION:You're a policeman, on duty by yourself. You are walking on a deserted street late at night. Suddenly, an armed man with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you and screaming something that sounds like obscenities, raises the knife and lunges at you. You are carrying your truncheon and are an expert in using it. However, you have only a split second to react before he reaches you. What do you do?     ANSWERS: Canadian Police Officer:   Firstly, the Officer must consider the man's rights under The Charter of Rights and Freedoms:   1) Does the man look poor and/or oppressed?   2) Is he newly arrived in this country and does not yet understand the law?   3) Is this really a knife or a ceremonial dagger?   4) Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?   5) Has my uniform caused him anguish?   6) Could I run away?   7) Could I possibly swing my truncheon and knock the knife out of his hand?   8) Should I try and negotiate with him to discuss his wrong-doings?   9) Why am I carrying a truncheon anyway and what kind of message does this send to society?   10) If I hurt him and lose the subsequent court case, does he have the opportunity to sue me, cost me my job, my credibility and the loss of my family home? Australian Police Officer: BANG !   American Police Officer: BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! 'Click' . . .  Reload . . . BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG ! BANG !   Glasgow Police Officer:   "Haw, Jimmie....! Drop the wee knife reet this minute noo, unless ye want it stuck up yer arse!"
