This is one of those stories that really shine a "light" on some of the few remaining differences between America and other countries. The Police the patrol ing Belgian's Red Light district have been ordered to stop visiting with ladies in the store fronts and drinking in the surrounding bars.
---"These officers think their duty hours are to be used to drink alcohol in bars, practice sports..., visit brothels or massage parlours, and entertain (intimate) relationships with residents of the neighbourhood during their patrol," said the letter from a local police chief.
"It is only by setting a good example that the police can make itself respected," the letter said, urging officers to adopt more conservative behaviour.---
Can you imagine American officers getting caught in a place like this? DONE.
The Belgian Red Light District is pretty tame compared to Amsterdam (I checked out both). Oddly, in Belgum I don't remember ever seeing a cop. Now I know why.
