Honestly it feels like it should be illegal. If a cop or a cop-simulacrum walks up to me and says "You're going to jail unless you give me this" I'm probably going to give them that. I don't want to go to jail and I know they'll cook something up about resisting arrest if I don't play along.

- scarejunba 8y agoIs it possible for states to make laws saying that cop-likes can't lie about things? And then for the state to sue the federal government if they violated that? Because the truth is that requiring a warrant won't do the trick. If the cop-like says he doesn't need a warrant I'm going to listen to him. I should always comply in the moment or "we'll do things the hard way". Then afterwards maybe I can sue.

- tdhoot 8y agoNo, it couldn't affect ICE since the federal government has sovereign immunity and all federal officials enjoy qualified immunity in the course of conducting federal business.
- vkou 8y agoIf a cop walks up to you, and says: "You're going to jail, unless you kill Bob," that's one thing. If a cop walks up to you, and says: "Could you do me a favor, and kill Bob for me?" - that's an entirely different thing. Motel 6 was not coerced into breaking the law. It voluntarily broke the law.
