This video is a good thing to watch! You get both sides of the story.
They discuss details on why and how people make mistakes and get convicted. It is a long video, but once you start watching it that is not a big deal. Anyways check it out! It may help you someday.

Great video, making me a little paranoid but it's better to be safe than sorry.

Glad u liked it.
Basically never say shit to a cop! Whether your guilty or not. The odds are stacked against us. And this also kinda proves that your NOT innocent until proven guilty but rather guilty until proven innocent. Right down to the jury. Which is really fucked up in my opinion!

Ive seen a bunch of videos like this, they're so helfup when your dealing with the cops, its fucked up though how many people refuse to actually learn their rights and how to exercise them properly, a good friend of mine just got popped last night with an oz when he was pulled over, he just let the cop search his car

In theory it all sounds great, but what are you really going to do when a cop pulls you over, tells you to get out of the car because he "smells" something, or see's you look high. You can protest all day but there are still going to be those cops who search you or your car anyway, regardless of probable cause. What is our defense against injustice within a already corrupt system?

It's possible for the case to get tossed out in court for lack of probable cause. Happened to me two years ago in Yellowstone when rangers found my hash and DOC as I was hitchhiking out of the park. Came back for court a month later and at the very last minute the judge found out it was an unlawful search so she let me go free.
Almost had two years of probation, over a grand in fines, plus a park banishment
That's the last time I'll ever give consent for a search.
