Lol you can definitely tell you're European XD
The police here in the US are nothing like that. If you call the police to let them know you'll be protesting you're just asking for trouble, it's like taunting them before trying to fight them. I wouldn't be surprised if they show up at your house to harass you, or somehow set it up to where your planned protesting spot is either unavailable or otherwise impossible to use. They've been known to arrest people for giving water to the homeless, those waiting in line to vote, protestors, and pretty much anyone the government or specific officers dislike. It's commonly stated here in the US that short of a murder occuring, there is no good reason to call the police unless you want a murder to occur.
If you are wealthy in the US then calling the police is a positive because they actually do what you want and ignore all the petty shit they normally make a big deal out of. It all comes down to money and influence.
