lol everyone on this site will spend 2 hours watching a movie on weed, but nobody will waste their time listening to a law professor teaching about 5th amendment rights
the longest encounter i had with a cop was when one pulled up next to me in a parking lot and asked what kind of gas mileage i get in my subaru and then he told me about how he ryno-lined his truck bed and also the underbody of his truck. so random haha.
i watched like twenty minutes of it. it was definitely interesting but it doesnt really benefit us all that much since its directed at a class of lawyers.
Sparknotes: Don't talk to the cops, it can't ever improve your position, only harm you later. Also, don't try to be some smartass legal genius. You aren't. Watching three episodes of Matlock doesn't really help.
I saw that posted on a gun owners forum i belong to, it's really good advice. the guys a former prosecuter and he's telling you that. i've seen him in some other shit, he knows whats up.
i watched this a long time ago. important shit if you ever get into trouble, even in you did nothing wrong. cops don't care about you, innocent or not.
i'm sticking by my comment though. the exception is cops that are already pissed off and wanna take out their power. you only hear stories on cops being crooked and stuff because nobody is going to come on here and say, "hey guys, i got a warning for speeding today"
could go either way. in small towns the cops will know everyone, and not have too much to do. In cities they'll be busy, and face a hell of a lot more crimes than they do in some tiny town.
Basically if a cop is angry with you about anything (reasonable or not) they will fuck you over in every way they can. Talking to them and trying to reason your way out of things will just get you into more trouble from my experience. You just have to bend over and take it in the ass if thats what they want. Say as little as possible and give yes or no answers.
