Gave in and skimmed the story. No miranda rights read stuck out the most. If you got charged with anything it woulda been dropped based on that fact alone.

Yeah man, right on.

Idiot: Officer X never read me my miranda rights
Judge: Officer X, is this true?
Officer X: No.

Just curious, if u just ignored the cops lights and pulled into a closed garage in your apt, is there [censored] the cop could do?

They know where you live and probably your plate number. You pick up another charge for evading and they still arrest you and are probably not in a pleasant mood for having to come and find you in your apartment.

To comment further on showing cops respect, just because your innocent doesnt give you the right to resist arrest. Cops are human and mistaken arrests are made all the time. Your best bet is to just let them take you in. I know people who have been mistakenly arrested and have picked up charges for resisting police officers.

I enjoyed the read, and I definately don't want to go to jail anytime soon lol. Also, nice Rounder's comparison. I can imaging exactly what that room looked like with the neon lighting.

This prison talk?

He means his butthole.

(Actually, it's the smaller secondary pocket inside the right front pocket on some jeans.)

Definitelt a possibilty but not all cops are crooked. Believe it or not most are honorable men who would admit they made a mistake and you'd walk.

And to launch a preemptive strike against the libertarian douches who would have a hissyfit at using the word sir or ma'am when dealing with a police officer; you can be extremely respectful and deferrent WTHOUT forfeiting your rights.

[/ QUOTE ]

You are such a slave to the system dude. Cops can't control what they do based on whim, they are BOUND by the laws of AMERICA to do whatever you tell them to while in custody. Next time the man tries to pull some bs like, let me search you, or, step out of the car, ask for his badge number, then make him do that many pushups right then and there. That's right its a little known fact that cops have badge numbers to delineate how many pushups they can do.

The main thing I dont understand is why you got out of your car at all. If Johnny Law tried to make me get out my car, even if it was on fire, I'd make them go through the whole procedure of getting the Jaws of Justice to pry me out, just to make sure they weren't trying to frame me for anything. As soon as I get a car I'm going to install some handcuffs to the dashboard.

Stupid

This is wrong.. not sure why everyone thinks this, because they see the tv cops read people their rights as they arrest them? The only time they are obligated to inform you of your rights is if you are being questioned.
