> I don't think I'd ever go and ask for help from a US cop except in the direst of circumstances

Pretty silly. Most, if not all, cops I've encountered have been decent and helpful human beings.

The primary source of ongoing friction with cops usually has to do with racial tensions in inner cities, especially in LA.

Their being armed doesn't change anything, plenty of everyday non-police citizens walking around armed too. No reason for fear.

This is not a reason not to be afraid. I'll spare you my big rant, though, as I probably won't convince you.
