That's what usually happens at protests, at least here in the Netherlands. There's too many people to take in police vehicles, so they use buses. Usually they don't even go to the police station. They just unload the bus somewhere and then go back to pick up more people.

@nealorr5086 And what reason would the cops have then? Are you saying she paid them?

@Kayuu7 Police here is getting fed up with climate protesters here in general. I can't really blame them. Nothing wrong with protesting, but they do it every damn week it seems, and every time it costs a ton of time for the police that they could better spend on other things. What they did is a wrist lock. It's harmless, but it hurts like hell unless you cave in and follow their movement. It's to make people walk basically, because these climate crazies just play dead when they get arrested and the police spends hours dragging and carrying them otherwise.

@gepettosplaylists That is normal. I live here. I've seen and been to demonstrations here many times. Sometimes those people get a fine, but mostly the police is just removing them from the scene. They are driven to some other place in the city and just let go.

@innova1335 The police here and in the US are really no comparison. People generally have nothing to fear from them, not even when breaking the law. They are well educated with much emphasis on deescalation. The police academy here is a full education. It takes three years, and after that they can specialize in various areas. They also have the benefit of course of not having to fear guns all the time, which means they generally don't have to fear citizens either. I've been arrested without even being touched, not even to put handcuffs on. Only at jail did they quickly pat me down. That would never happen in the US.
