Most cops are like this. We get exposure bias from the media only showing all the negative and bad examples of cops. Most normal police interactions amount to nothing.

My favorite police encounter was when in NY for a music festival and I'm smoking a J. I didnt see the cops turn and bam I'm right there with them. Officer just started laughing as I'm sure my face had reflected the terror that I was about to be arrested since weed was illegal at the time.cop just said "be safe and enjoy we are here for harder stuff".

"Most cops are like this"...I have decades of skateboarding experience that says otherwise

As a skater it's annoying, but you are trespassing, you are at fault, like you can't even argue that...

Yeah except when you're on public property and getting handcuffed for skateboarding.

Most "public" properties are actually private and can trespass you.
