That is horrible anti-american behavior. It's the definition of corruption; and goes against the fundamental principles of the founding of the US.
And, to put it quite bluntly: Cops walking around demanding tips from affluent Americans will quickly get shut down because no one will stand for it.
- pseudohadamard 5mo agoI'm sure the police in Cote d'Ivoire will be upset to find out that Americans think they're corrupt. It is the way of things. You're not really paying a bribe but more in the line of baksheesh, a small fee to expedite processing or make things run more smoothly. It usually amounts to the equivalent of a few dollars so no big deal.
