That's assuming I actually look like a threat, rather than someone infatuated with the weird robot dog.

It's a golf park full of rich old people. I bet the dog-hecklers will come dozens per hour.

You must be white or not from the US. The police in the US are taught to shoot first. Sometimes they get asked questions later.

That is the way that the police work in the United States yes.

We're not talking about the police, we're talking about the Secret Service protecting the President-Elect of the United States... at a golf park Not only that, but a park where people have to be super rich since access to Trump (leader of the GOP and now President-elect) is figured into the membership fee.

And while the police are happy to gun down the rest of us shlubs, they treat rich people like they treated OJ Simpson after he hacked up Nicole Brown. When they don't and they actually shoot a rich person, then high-powered (blue-haired) lawyers come and sue the precinct and county for enough money to collapse the GDP.

But I do hear you. Police in the US are bastards to the last.
