Let me +1 this here, I am seriously scared for my life whenever I interact with law enforcement officers in the US, just from the fact that I know they have to interact with armed people all the time and have to be cautious that anyone they interact with has a decent likelyhood to be armed.

If we can't go to Singapore because they happen to have anti-LGBT laws on the books, then I suggest we do not have any further meetings in USA at all, especially not states that have stand-your-ground laws on their books.

As opposed to Singapore where anti-LGBT laws aren't really enforced, in USA these kinds of laws seems to be on the rise instead of things getting better.
