    well, i guess if you shoot someone, i do hope you get tricked into admitting it…
    the rest of the criminal “justice” system is bullshit, but i do prefer to separate murderers from other people…

    regarding never admitting something, sometimes it actually works in your favor… especially, or only really, if you’re directly caught.
    lying to a cop will piss them off, and is technically another crime. apologizing will often get you you a warning…
    (the 5th means you don’t have to incriminate yourself, but doesn’t give you permission to lie)
    especially if you look chagrined and throw a “sir” in there…

    p.s. you can kinda combine the two with “oh did i? i’m sorry… i thought i came to a full stop…” and then fight it in court.

        can be… i.e. “Nobody shall give, either orally or in writing, information to a peace officer performing their duties, when they know the information is false.”
