I don't have the stats on hand about the number of people shot by LGBTQ people seeking a cake, but I do know that some cops have shot unarmed innocent citizens.

I wouldn't want people from that community (cops) hanging out and making my other customers nervous. Plus, cops often pressure restaurants for freebies all the time. I try to avoid cops as well, you never know when one might snap.
