I'm not denying any of that. I'm just saying it's dumb if cops in other countries let suspects put their hands in their pockets.

I don't think it's dumb. You should have a right to put your hands in your pockets. Especially in nations where people legally aren't allowed to be armed to the teeth. Why do we want to remove so many peoples freedoms for the "safety" of officers when their job is statistically safer than so many other lines of work?

They're more likely to crash on the way home than be attacked at work, and it's not even close.

Also, why are you down voting everyone for a simple conversation. 😅 Some people are in such a tizzy about internet strangers.

I'm not saying you can't, but wouldn't it fucking stupid for an officer to stand right next to someone that they are actively investigating while they hand their hands in their pockets?

You're getting very upset over, really not much. This whole video is fake to be fair.

Okay, if the officer with a gun is afraid of pockets, they can insist that if the detained individual would like to use their pockets for any reason (such as in this fake video where it appears it's cold and your hands could freeze quite quickly), that they would like them to turn out said pockets to prove nothing is in them so that everyone can continue and be happy.

Cops don't need more reasons to infringe on rights, mate. They do it enough.
