Rex! I see you in a new light!
Are Swedish cops not allowed to hit you in the head or mace you?
The closest I've ever gotten was when I smiled at a Thai policeman and called him a "fucking bollocks" as I gave him a $5 dollar bribe (I knew he spoke no English).

He was off duty, so I didn't know he was a cop initially. He broke a traffic rule - should have let me in, but wasn't about to - so I drove and he had to hit the breaks. He followed that up, showing his discontent, by pulling up riiiight behind me, thus breaking another traffic rule... At the traffic light up ahead I stopped, got out of the car to 'explain' to him his errors. He then also got out, badge in hand, and started screaming. I told him what he had done wrong, and when he refused to acknowledge his errors 'the words' were spoken.
You're lucky he didn't shoot you in the face.
Glad you approve...
I think I said hello to a policeman once. True story.

Have you ever broke the speed limit Pep?
'Broken'
I don't talk to cops much.
They think all the lads my age just sit around smoking dope and being unproductive.
they have a hard job so hats off to the cops who actually put in an honest days work

Yes Rex!
Never had any runs ins with the police, came close though.
I was tailgating a car, not intentionally, I just chose to slow down without the use of breaks to save petrol and ended up quite close to a guy who was going quite slowly on the overtake lane. He started waving his hand telling me to back off but he was crawling at this point so I refused. Then he turned his police lights on at the front and I quickly slammed on the breaks 
He changed lane and went behind me, was crapping myself that he'd pull me over but it didn't happen.
Other day I was 15mph over the speed limit and suddenly noticed a police car behind me when the lights and sirens started going off... quickly slowed down and changed lanes and wet myself thinking it was for me but fortunately they had something else to deal with.

Like you, he may have said all that in Swedish to an English copper so he is not quite the hero you think.
Seriously though, like Gazza says, i sometimes thought the scousers were exaggerating but blimey!
Now i understand a little bit why they reacted the way they did to the seemingly overwhelming official evidence against Suarez.
I am no hero at all. I just have a short fuse sometimes.

'right'
You are wrong though. The original spelling, which is still considered valid by some, actually has 4 'i's.

We all have a short fuse I get enraged if I lose at solitaire, but you're living the dream mate.
Telling a cop who understands- to go fuck himself- is definitely on my list of things to do before I die.
Only time I talk to cops is when I'm being given a speeding ticket.
Unfortunately I don't usually feel entitled to tell a man just doing his job to go fuck himself. 
That's the trouble when dealing with large organisations: usually the guy fucking you is getting fucked even harder working for the stupid.
Often feel that way when I'm on the phone to my telco experiencing waves of insensate rage.
You know you're right Burnsy.
This cop booked me for talking on my mobile while I was driving, now back in the day you could talk to the man, hold up your hands and apologise......9 times out of 10 you'd get let off with a warning.
Now theres a camera in his car watching him and his job is to collect revenue.....What can anyone do......
Well I did hold up my hands and apologise, the lousy pig booked me for $235 anyway......
Next time I'll tell him to go fuck himself- may as well get something for my money.
$235 :o
For that I'd be like, look, officer, I'll make it $250 if you'll let me tell you to go fuck yourself. You'll be $15 richer and I'll feel so much better. Here, just let me hang my hat on this pesky camera ...
Nothing wrong with being a decent citizen.

AND 3 demerit points, I would have got the same if I'd run the cunt over. :mad:

Absolutely not - I hope I haven't implied that there is.
Not at all, it's more Biggus' infatuation with telling a policeman to go fuck himself.
But you were talking on your phone while driving, right? And will you do it again?
In Sweden it's fairly safe to tell someone, anyone really, to go fuck themselves. I don't care how much in the right I would have been had this been in Catalunya and the officer in question had been with the Guardia Civil - no way I would have said so then. I'd have been in BIG trouble!
So Gus, my advice to you is this - come to Sweden, but you'd have to do better than being on the phone while driving to get pulled over, and say what you have to say here. Don't worry about language barriers either. Most Swedes speak decent English. He'll understand.

It's my infuriation with myself for not telling him to go fuck himself.

I'll be awaiting my next opportunity Tim and will keep you posted.
