Just want to hear stories so I can mentally prepare myself for such… hostile… interactions… (Hopefully this never happens to me)

P.S: And before anyone start spamming “Don’t Consent to searches”, remember that that’s a very democracy-centric viewpoint. In some countries you could be jailed for refusing.

    Yes. I have been thrown against a wall and very intimately frisked by police for looking at them wrong.

    But - that was in LA when cops there were basically just a well armed gang. I’ve never experienced anything that crazy since.
