The Reykjavik Police Have An Instagram Full Of Puppies, Kittens And Ice Cream
Most police departments have a strenuous relationship with the people that they are charged to protect, but it doesn’t seem like that’s the case in the Icelandic capital of Reykjavik, judging by the good-looking officers and good times on their Instagram.
Obviously, their Instagram probably isn’t the best way to honestly gauge the Icelandic police force’s relationship with regular citizens, but they’ve still got one record to be proud of – their first-ever shooting death occurred in 2013, when they shot an armed man who had opened fire on two officers.

Now this is how the police are supose to be, where people want to call them for help, someone they want to have their children look up to, Not what they have turned into here in the United Staes

Why should our policeforce be proud of killing someone for the first time? or any time? The cops dont even carry guns! - Icelander

Such kind, happy, peaceful people. I hope their country can stay that way...

A smile on every officers face. So human and approachable. I love Iceland and hope to see it in person some day
JessicaLannen 11 years ago
Do they have a unusually attractive police force or is everyone ridiculously good looking?
PatriciaO'flynn 11 years ago
The safest places have the most easy going cops. Irish police (Gardá) are quite like that, I've seen tourist take photos with them often! :)

Too bad more police aren't also "citizens", maybe they'd get more respect.

J'AIME BIEN LA PHOTO AUDACIEUSE DES POLICIERS ET DES BEIGNES. Au Québec, c'est une plaisanterie sur les policiers !!!!

Iceland kinda has this unspoken rule that's: as long as it's not hurting anyone, go for it. They do know how to party!
MishaPterodactyl 11 years ago
Honestly the cops are really nice. In fact everyone is really nice, it's the other tourists you gotta worry about.
NorahHerbert 11 years ago

My favorite is the officer with the cat in the car. Iceland must have a good looking gene that the officers have

I'd still walk with my hands up in Iceland, but it's because I'd be waving hello to these guys.

Seems the female cops outnumber the males - I hope it's not just because they are more photogenic!
Ösp Gunnarsdóttir 11 years ago
In 2012 about 16% of the force were female.
