    yes you are under obligation to answer any questions for whatever reason no matter the state

    You need to have brain damage to believe this is true. Police can detain you for whatever reason they might have, and refusing to answer them might cause them to place you under arrest, but you are not obligated to answer questions while you are under detention or arrest.

        What are they gonna do? Use their psychic piggy powers to force me to talk? lmao.

        No court in any state in this country would ever convict someone solely for exercising their right to not incriminate themselves. Abusive cops exist, sure, but that doesn’t make them right.

        I really don’t get where you’re basing this on, what law compels you to waive your right to be silent? I’ll yield that a cop will treat you like shit if you stonewall them but there’s no way they can make you incriminate yourself.
