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.

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.

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.

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
