Only opposite. I haven’t listened to him since he decided to play “41 shots” at Madison Square Garden after a police involved shooting. There were 50 NYPD Detectives providing security for him. We walked out.

'American Skin 41 Shots' is actually written from both sides of the perspective. If you listen to the song the chorus itself says "is it a gun? is it a knife? is it a wallet? this is your life..." which is the cop's side of the argument - and truthfully so - "I do not know what is in that guy's hands and I have only milli-seconds to act or I might be dead."

That's what Springsteen was trying to capture in that lyric. But everybody just wanted to see the whole song in its entirety as an indictment of police behavior, when a defense of a decent cop's behavior is right there in the song too. It's really unfortunate how it got mis-interpreted.
