Don't joke about this ... they will shoot you, and when they do, they will kill you, leave no witnesses, file some paperwork ... game over for you.
You are 8X as likely to be killed by a police officer than a terrorist.
A lot of this came out of an NYPD FOIA report. They shoot an average of 2-3 bullets and 98% of people shot don't survive, and it will never be in the headlines, they'll just plant some drugs on you or something if they don't have justification, demean you personally, find some selective piece of info from your past and spin it to win.
All interactions with law enforcement should be taken very seriously (I'm not kidding). They are the biggest bully on the street and they control all the cards.
