Re: Just Say NO

I get the impression that most of you are just speaking from what you learned in school and not real-world experience. It's shocking how ignorant some of these posts are. In reality, cops don't follow the letter of the law. Many are ignorant to even very basic aspects of constitutional law in the first place. Cops do violate peoples' rights. And they get away with it. And, *gasp*, sometimes shouting "I know my rights!" doesn't work when you're in handcuffs and your face is being pushed against a car hood.

That is completely irrelevant. You still don't have anything to gain from consenting to giving up your rights, and everything to lose, whether the cop respects your constitutional rights or not. I just cannot understand that line of reasoning at all.
Do what the cops tell you to do, but DO NOT voluntarily do what they want you to do. Is that really so hard to understand? It won't do you any good to make the cops' job easier when you are being interrogated!
