Busted - The Citizens Guide to Surviving Police Encounters

This is a must see! If you or anyone you care about ever has the misfortune of encountering police officers anywhere it is incumbent upon you to be prepared to handle them because if you are not it may very well be to your detriment. Even then there may be cases where you or them will not be able to do anything about it! It is a sad state of affairs in a country when you have to be just as fearful of police officers as you should be of criminals! But of course the founders faced the same problem as well.



Some other web resources that you find may useful:

Flex Your Rights!
ACLU

It helps to know who is really watching your back, I personally can't say the police have your rights and best interests in mind. As matter of fact they can be downright brutal and ruthless! Of course this should not really surprise anyone because of research such as the Stanford Prison Experiment. You could also interject with some learning theory to try to explain this behavoir but I tend to reduce it down to a simple description, RANKISM!
