Seems reasonable to me since I can't call for backup or have body armor.


That isn't how it works. You aren't their equal. You are very, very far below them. It is reasonable for every officer in the country to view you as a combination terrorist, cartel hitman, and all around violent lunatic, but it is a moral outrage for you to think any officer may be remotely capable of committing a wrongful act.
