Encounters with the Police

I did not grow up in the United States. When I was a child in Eastern Europe, my parents had a brief but firm conversation with me about the police. It went something like this: “We are Christians and the government and the police do not like us, so do not, do not, antagonize them. Remember they have guns and you do not. Do not come close to them and do not try to be funny when they are around. If they ask you to stop, you stop and try to answer them in the politest way that you can.” And so, for the first 15 years of my life, I stayed as far as I could from the police even though our village only had two police officers and we knew them by name. They patrolled out streets by night and day, stopped by our school and talked to our class, and rode their motorcycles. Wherever they went, their guns were very visible. When we spent 16 months in the refugee camps of Italy, I knew that the Italian police (called carabinieri in Italian) were a friendly bunch. They often stopped to talk with the children, but I remembered what my parents had told me and kept my distance.
