I think the idea of people approaching NYPD officers and hugging them is, on the one hand, hilarious and a fantastic idea, and on the other hand, likely to get those people maced, beaten to a pulp and taken away in handcuffs. And, to be fair, my initial reaction to some stranger coming up to me and embracing me would definitely involve pepper spray.
