Random poll:
When you see a police prowler coming down the street in your direction, do you
a) feel relieved and safe?
or
b) feel anxious, even if you aren't doing anything illegal?
(If you are actually doing something illegal, you are exempt from this poll.)
For me, it's always choice b. I haven't done anything illegal (except for occasional jaywalking) in 20 years, but my history of teenage misadventures on the wrong side of the law has left me with an irrational distrust and fear of cops that I still can't shake to this day.
How about you?
