Know your rights!
We have many legal protections. The police will knowingly violate them. We must advocate for our rights out loud & consistently.
Do you have to talk to the police? Ask “officer, am I being detained?” If not, you are free to go!
You have the right to remain silent, but you need to actively invoke that right. Say “I’m going to remain silent”
You do not have to answer any questions about where you are going, where you are traveling from what you are doing, where you live, where you were born, whether you are a U.S. citizen, or how you entered the country,.
In some states you may be required to provide your name if asked to identify yourself, and an officer may arrest you for refusing to do so.
Don’t let the police make you feel bad for exercising you 5th amendment rights.
Remember: the #1 weapon of the police is fear. They will try to use it as a tactic.
