Congresswoman Eleanor Holmes Norton left a voicemail for a lobbyist in which she brazenly begs for a "contribution."

Walking On The Wrong Side of The Road Retaliation Arrest for Asserting my 5th Amend Right Not To ID

August 17, 2013

In Texas, you are not required to identify yourself until you've been lawfully ARRESTED. Being detained does not mean you must present identification.

The problem here is that the cop attempts to use a sneaky method to get the guy to talk, stating that if he doesn't talk to him he'll be detained/arrested. That's coercion. Saying you're not going to arrest the guy or cite him if he talks to you is not following the law. Either arrest/cite him or release him. But he is not required to sit and have a so-called "friendly chat" with anyone. But this is how cops show they're assholes. They pick and choose WHO to apply the law to and who not to, as well as when to apply the law and when not to. This is another bad cop.

This is what a police state looks like!
