:{{Gripe}} Ultraussie here.In all GTA3 era cames you could enage Hand-To-Hand with everyone, including cops. Vice City onwards they would pull out a Nightstick. (And that seems pretty realistic, cops are armed with non-lethal weapons to protect themselves without unessacary use of deadly force). However, in GTAIV, they pull the gun on you. (Seems realistic if Liberty City was part of a Dictated country, but in a Democratic modern America?).

{{Gripe}}I'm walking down the street minding my own business, a cop runs past, trips over me, gets hurt, and what do you know? I got a wanted level all the sudden. This is so annoying, I mean I know he's a cop but does he have to be such a bastard about it? just go on and get that crook you were chasing.

{{Gripe}}When the police shoot you dead, they frequently don't stop at 'dead' and continue to pump rounds into Niko's corpse long after the slo-mo-black+white camera kicks in

:{{Rebut}}Ever hear the story about the suspect shot 68 times? When questioned on why so many, the sheriff said, "That's all the ammo we had."

{{Gripe}} It would have been cool to see unmarked police cruisers patrolling around the city. And I don't mean FBI people, but LCPD people in unmarked versions of the Police Cruiser/Patrol driving around (with minor things such as mirror lights to differentiate them from civilian versions), being all incognito and stuff.
[[rebut]] When I surrendered once in a 2 star wanted level in Alderney, an LCPD officer moved in on me and the Alderney State police kept firing clips of 9mm Ammo.

{{Gripe}} When you exit a police vehicle a random cop (who had no vehicle to begin with) who just arrested someone will put the criminal in your car and drive away. For example, I escaped from a 5* wanted level with an enforcer (with no cheats), got out to eat a hotdog then turned around to see a random cop putting a criminal in the back and starting to drive away {{Rebut}} but for some reason i could jack him and he acted like a regular civilian and ran away

[[rebut]] that happened to me a few times in Bohan, I had a NOOSE Patriot in my spot, an LCPD officer ran off with it down the street, If you see it happening, get in the car before the cop.

{{Gripe}}If the player sees a police officer chasing a thug and you harm the thug or punch him or whatever, the police arrest ''you!'' This happened at the [[South Bohan Safehouse|Bohan hideout]].

{{Gripe}}Brucie says police are outsourcing arrests to "private contracters", yet you still need a police computer to access the database. If they really were outsoucring, shouldn't the database be available to use without police equipment, such as via cellphone or computer.
:{{rebut}}I harmed a Murderer on the highway (He ran from the cops before being arrested for Vehicular Homicide) the same cop and Toll Booth guys chased me!
----
{{Gripe}}Firing on cops with the APC's main gun merits no response...even when their car is destroyed and they're killed.
:{{Rebut}}They merit no response because they're trying to get the hell out of there before they get killed, since their guns have no chance against an [[APC]].
