Today, I was arrested. The policeman threw me to the ground because I wouldn't answer his questions. This was after he told me I had the "right to remain silent". FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I was in the library when police arrested me for threatening people. The librarian even told them I did nothing wrong, and that the actual girl they wanted had already left. They took me in anyway. My dad sided with the police and let me “think about what I did” in jail overnight. FML
Today, as a joke, I hopped in the front seat of a police cruiser and took a cute selfie while the officer was talking to someone on the sidewalk. A minute later, he dragged me to the ground and arrested me. Um… what? FML
Today, I parked next to a police officer's car in a bad part of town. When I got out, I saw a bag of pot on the ground between the cop's car and mine. When I pointed it out to him, he insisted it was mine and interrogated me to the point of tears. FML
Today, I finally got to conduct my first questioning of a suspect, who had been arrested in connection with a car theft. As I recited the Miranda warning to him, my mind went totally blank, and after a few seconds, he sarcastically continued the speech for me. FML
Today, I was hammered, and on my way home I walked into a policeman. My logic was, if I'm on the phone, he can't talk to me, so I pulled my phone out and started speaking. The officer then asked me why I was speaking to my wallet. FML
Today, I learned that "Officer, I do not consent to any searches" means "Officer, please handcuff me, I am trying to be difficult" in cop speak. FML
Today, I had the cops called on me for acting suspiciously. I was using a payphone. FML
Today, a police officer pulled me over. He asked me where I was headed, so I jokingly replied, "Probably to jail after you run my name". He laughed and took my information, only to then arrest me for unpaid parking tickets I never received. FML
Today, I got pulled over for the first time. When the officer came up to my window, I immediately burst out into tears due to nervousness. He kept asking me for my licence and registration. Hysterical, I wasn't able to comply. He arrested me for not cooperating. FML
Today, I was arrested by the police for sitting in what they thought was a stolen vehicle. After being slammed into the back of a squad car at gunpoint, they realized the car was actually recovered a week ago. FML

You have a choice. The police cannot make you answer any questions nor can they be physically violent toward you if you don't. OPs rights were violated and I damn well hope they take it to court. Police brutality is never acceptable.

But doesn't "you have the right to remain silent" mean you have the choice to be silent. OP could have answered the questions

"You have the right to remain silent". I choose to wave that right. *begin screaming and screeching loudly*.

sappy082996 6
actually, I think u have to tell the police that you aren't going to answer the questions and that you will use the right to remain silent, otherwise they will keep asking questions.

Actually I do believe you have to inform them you are invoking that right.

82- Is it supposed to be a good thing that your mom never gives out tickets? That's her job; some people deserve tickets, and if they don't get them every once in a while, they'll continue to break the law. Now, I wouldn't be harsh or just hand out tickets for no reason, but if I were a cop I wouldn't be to proud about never giving out a ticket.

Be sure and let your lawyer know all about that.

He said you had the "right" to remain silent... he didn't say you had to use it! If a cop is asking you questions, it would be wise to answer them.

"If a cop is asking you questions, it would be wise to answer them." Not always true. That part where they say that anything you say could be used against you in court? They aren't kidding about that, and if you aren't extremely careful with your words, you could have them twisted around into something they didn't mean in order to implicate you. Best to wait for a lawyer.

I don't think you understand what a right is, Sweej.

Let's not forget about our good friend, the amendement. Op had the right to remain silent, and is protected to not have to answer by the 5th amendment unless his lawyer is present. Police men are getting power hungry and think they can do anything but uphold the law. I would take this to the judge during court and tell him about the police brutality.

hahaha for real! some people don't understand that our rights are there for a reason. you don't have to say anything to the cops at all.
hatepineapple 14
No. It's not "wise" to talk to the police. You NEVER ******* TALK TO THE POLICE. ANY and EVERY thing you say to them CAN and WILL be used against you. There is NOTHING you can say to the police to convince them out of arresting you. /watch?v=6wXkI4t7nuc ^^^ Read this until you can recite the entire thing in your sleep.

Pretty sure Miranda v Arizona only applies to the United States, not Malasyia. And anyway, general info questions like your name and address aren't questions you have a right to not answer.
