panstarry: panstarry: don’t talk to the cops! they aren’t joking when they say that anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. be sure to use these words exactly; no uncertainty in upholding your rights. [image description: a graphic composed of blue and green typography. the title reads “what to say if you’re being arrested.” next to it is a note that reads “the cops will [definitely] do & say some unsavory shit, so study up & know [your] rights!” the first line reads “am i free to leave?” & “am i being detained?” in a large typeface. the following text is split into two sections. first section: yes, you are free to leave. you are not being detained. leave. *please note: DO NOT make small talk no matter how awkward it gets. DO NOT answer any questions about your political beliefs. lying to the authorities is a crime, and the more you talk, the more material they have to pin something against you. any info can land you and / or your friends in jail. keep quiet! look up important phone numbers, write it on your body. second section: no, you are not free to leave. you are currently being detained. if you are under arrest, you have the right to ask why. “i am invoking my right to a lawyer.” “i am invoking my right to remain silent.” do not say or sign anything without a lawyer present. you don’t have to consent to a search of you or your stuff. at the bottom of the graphic is a line of text that reads “sources: aclu, national lawyers guild. please look up laws by state! you may have to give your name / address, depending on local legislation. also look up your rights to record.” END ID] -- source link
