@jeffowski Also, it cannot be overstated enough (at least if you live in the USA) to just shut. the. fuck. up. if you are approached by police at all.

Cops like to play word games and say "that only applies if you're under arrest" or "you're not under arrest, you're only being detained."

Bullshit. 1.) You can refuse to cooperate at any time (and should), and 2.) there is no functional difference between detained and arrested because they won't let you leave. LOL
