By that logic, it's also a hostile activity to close the bathroom door when I'm taking a fat shit. Privacy isn't just for criminals.
The response to "what are you trying to hide" is always "WTF do you need to see so badly?"
That one is easily rebutted by "Well, we're looking for pedos. Won't you think of the children? I bet you're one of the pedos, aren't you?". And it, sadly, works on people.
