It’s their job to follow the law. The law says an officer can ask for your ID if he has reasonable cause to do so, but he doesn’t have to tell you what that cause if he doesn’t want to.

The law says the only time you have to be informed as to why you are being arrested is when you are arraigned.

If you don’t like the law, work to change it.

An unconstitutional law is not a law.

Let me break this down...

“It’s their job to follow the law. The law says an officer can ask for your ID if he has reasonable cause to do so, but he doesn’t have to tell you what that cause if he doesn’t want to.”

If the suspect asks they DO have to explain why they are violating their rights. They can’t just violate your rights without verbally “informing” you why “if you ask”.

“The law says the only time you have to be informed as to why you are being arrested is when you are arraigned.”

In some states, in others they have to vocalize and inform you why you are being arrested.

“If you don’t like the law, work to change it.”

Which is exactly what I am trying to do right now sir... The masses need to be educated about their individual Constitutional rights. They need to understand THEY are the boss, not LE.
