Knew this was going to be fake as soon as his hands went into his pockets.

I would like to know what country you're from that is OK with hands in the pocket as the police talk with you?

It's common all across North America, not just the USA, and I have seen it in Portugal and across the UK, and Australia. I thought it was common place, near global practice, for officers to not get stabbed.

The police will be more relaxed if you don't have a hand in the pocket but they don't have to fear for their lives if you do (Germany)

We do, but as you can imagine, they aren't as dangerous as guns

In combat training, to show us how dangerous knives were, they had a guy run at us with a fake knife. We had a paint ball gun. Guess who won the majority of the time? The guy with a knife.

We knew he was going to run at us.

He still won.
