Should French police be more polite? Oui!

In a recent survey, the vast majority of French think people in France are rude to each other. Most importantly, French police are viewed as rude to the general public and particularly minorities. Thus, French police are being instructed and trained to no longer use the familiar "vu" when dealing with the public. Often, they were using the familiar to demean suspects, particularly minorities. Should be interesting to survey in a few years to determine whether the changes are having any effect in how the public perceives the police. http://www.france24.com/en/20130301-french-police-ordered-be-polite-all-times-0
