Are citizens obligated to help armed police in a scenario where the officer is highly stressed? For example, there are stories of officers opening fire on plain clothes officers attempting to assist.

Anyone? Any experience giving an officer a hand?

Pretty sure in some states in the US it's illegal to refuse an order from an officer to help if they ask.

Mike The Cop actually has a pretty interesting video on it, I dont have the link onhand right now. The primary points are when you reasonably believe the cop needs assistance, when the officer specificly asks, and I cant quite remember the last part. If you do approach a LEO that needs help you shluld not come from behind, and be sure to make yourself announced that you're hwlping the officer. Combat is confusing and when plain clothes officers get shot its mlstly because they did not announce themselves.

>cops ask for help
Fuck them, theyll fuck you for no reason at all. They dont get my help

Unless they specifically ask for help you're probably gonna end up doing more harm than good, the best thing you could do to help a cop is try to keep a crowd from getting too close and becoming a liability.

Are they obligated by law to protect me? Nah I’m not getting involved and hurt killed or sued cause fuckface mcticket cant do his job. Cops don’t drop by my work and pitch in.

There is no reason at all you should be around a cop in a stressful situation. If you find yourself in a situation and there's an officer nearby, leave. There is literally no good to come of being there for you.
There's no reason to interact with cops at all if you can avoid it. People get busted for utter bullshit plenty.

>i.e. becoming yet another member of the crowd in order to interact with said crowd
