[quote=Anonymous]-- How to Deal with Law Enforcement --
Above all, never give consent to a search.
First off, you should always comply with the physical directions of the police officer.
Secondly, do not say anything more than you need to. The Fifth Amendment gives you protection against incriminating yourself, and staying silent does not give a police officer probable cause to get a warrant or perform a search. Lying to an officer, on the other hand, does allow the to charge you with Obstruction of Justice.
Third, make sure you never give an officer probable cause for a warrant. Keep any illegal activity, such as drunken guests or alcohol containers out of sight. An officer who thinks that a guest is underage and drinking may have probable cause to search them.
Finally, never make deals with a police officer. They may offer to "let you off easy" if they can "just take a look around". Police officers have no control over your sentence and cannot authorize any sort of deals. Do not bargain with them.[/quote]
