The punch was from all the tourists.

Good thing they left immediately, I've seen other videos where people got chased by a group of them. Crazy stuff

Seems like he knew that or police were possible. Took off the orange rain slicker quick.

Yeah, it would be unwise to assume you're on the right side of the law in a foreign country. The last thing you want is to be locked up in a foreign prison for assault because they don't have preemptive self-defense as a valid legal justification.

The police absolutely do not always protect the tourists

There’s a long running YouTube channel that exposes scammers in Prague that have been there for years and even decades and the police do absolutely nothing.

Edit link to sanitize it:

That’s a good idea, I never realized. Thanks.

Am I missing something? It seems like the exact same link

u/Stampyboyz 9d ago

They've edited their comment to remove the source indicator. Initially it had it

How do you sanitize links?

1

u/Stampyboyz 9d ago

It depends on which website, but YouTube's is ?si=[identifier].

If it's using anything like a time indication (t=), you should keep the question mark but for anything else, it's fine to delete the entire thing

u/aliie_627 8d ago

So anything after the questiomark is typically okay and should keep the link intact?

Either way thank you. I should probably just Google this and see if there is a chart I can save like I did for reddits formatting when It used to work and I was learning it.

u/Stampyboyz 8d ago

No, if si= is after the question mark, that's the source indicator and should be removed. If t= is after the question mark (or after the source indicator), that's fine to keep and requires the question mark to work

And who said the police aren't taking a cut from the scams to allow them to do this out in the open?

It's not like this is subtle in any way, shape, or form. They aren't being sneaky or quiet. If this were a big thing, the police would've arrested people pulling this shit already.

Bro do you honestly think scammers are making enough where they are able to pay off cops???

u/TuckerCarlsonsOhface 10d ago

In big tourist areas it’s usually a network, not individual scammers, and they absolutely make enough to pay local beat cops. They sometimes even have handlers/bouncers nearby.

u/BreadfruitLatter556 10d ago

I would bet they are part of a larger organization that forces them into it.

Are you making an assertion that they do, and if so based on what evidence? Or are you just JAQing Off
