Tbf, if someone started shouting "la migra" at me with a camera in my face, I might cover mine too despite not even working for the government at all. As much as everyone seems to want to become a meme these days I'd prefer not to, personally, and going viral over (what would in my personal case be) a false accusation while attempting to grocery shop isn't on my to do list today either.

I mean I'm not in a charger and I don't really look the part so in my case such an accusation is unlikely, and for sure 50/50 chance here just based on the charger lol, but the other 50% of that is still just "some dude who thinks chargers are cool," and that's just poor taste in cars. Though yeah not being worried about that assault charge is also a point towards "probably" in this one.
