We decided we want to dedicate a day of the week to legal stuff. We'll try and post things pertaining to your rights as an American, as a rider and/or patch holder. There is a lot going on out there with motorcycle check points, mandatory helmet laws, profiling and club discrimination. When you talk to anyone that rides, they'll eventually say something about "riding free". That freedom needs protecting and the first thing to do is become aware of what's happening both in your community and around you. You can bet your ass that if the states that run motorcycle check points get away with it, it's just a matter of time before it starts happening where you live. It's not just something happening to someone else and it sucks to be them.
Up first is a pair of videos about not talking to cops. We've all heard (either directly or from TV) "anything you say can AND WILL BE HELD AGAINST YOU in the court of law". Be calm, be respectful but most of all, be quiet. Don't try to reason, don't try to out smart him, don't get lippy, just do yourself a favor and shut the hell up.
Watch for the link to part 2 where a retired cop talks about the tricks he uses to get people to talk. - Sean
