You of course assume that I would be praying while someone threatened me or my family.  This is a 'stand-your-ground' state, after all...

And because of my past employment history, five'll getcha ten I've associated with nearly as many "LEOs" as you have.  I know whereof I speak.

I would say something like "thank you for your service", but I generally don't do that unless I know what you've done first.  

Having said that, I have known individuals who left the force because they could no longer stand the 'racial' abuse, cover-ups and corruption.  My brother-in-law was one.  Next question.
