From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Go ahead.
The only way to convince you this is wrong is if you get swatted and have your dog killed for barking too much in front of you while cuffed.
I've been in a similar situation where some agents from the anti terrorism brigade came to my door. Sometimes you just have to shut up and work with them how they see fit.
Nobody was body-slammed, nobody was disrespected, nobody was being held longer than necessary or with excessive force.
This isn't a situation to turn into hate towards the police. Just get over it and don't be a fucking asshole.
