I thought it was bad when I was growing up, playing with my dog in the yard (no leash law at the time), the mailman was delivering a package so my dog ran over to him,WAGGING his tail (my dog wasn't barking or even growling at him) and I told the mailman that he doesn't bite but he sprayed him with mace. I hope the cop didn't aim his gun in your direction in order to shoot Lily.
