I was in Hong Kong with classmates. Two of them are Chinese-Americans who speak Cantonese with mainland accents. They tried to talk to some shopowners in Cantonese. A plaincloth officer overheard the conversation and made the assumption that they were illegal Chinese immigrants. He called for uniformed backups (as if he was confronting violent criminals) and asked for IDs from my friends. The cops were pretty apologetic when it turned out that they were American citizens and Yale University students.
