If you ever have an encounter with the police, and you're a US citizen, you need to know this. It could seriously save your way of life.
Dont Talk to Police
I wounder, are you even required to tell them your name if they ask? Anything you say can and will be used against you. It can never be used in your favor. At time index 27:17 the police officer has his say in the matter.

Incredible and interesting. I'm glad I took the time to watch this.
ReplyDeleteOnly problem is, here in the UK they can use against you the fact that you stay silent :(
@ Linda: Yeah, here in the US we have the right to not say anything that might incriminate ourselves... Which is pretty much anything. Just "Take the 5th."
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, our police can give evidence for the defence:
ReplyDelete"The solicitor for six green campaigners says police need to answer "serious questions" about an undercover officer who infiltrated their group.
...
The case was suddenly dropped.
It emerged that undercover Pc Mark Kennedy had offered to give evidence on the campaigners' behalf."
