It is your responsibility to protect your 4A rights. This is why you never let the police in your house without a warrant. Inviting them in allows them to search and charge you based on anything they find.
Step outside and talk to them if they want to interview you, and password protect your phone and demand they get a warrant if they want to look at it.
- braythwayt 7y agoAbsolutely true, but it is not your sole responsibility to project justice. Society also should enact regulations and oversight to prevent the police from coercing people into forgoing their rights. That’s why there is the Miranda warning, for example. You should know and protect your rights. Yes. AND the police should not as a matter of course attempt to coerce you into giving them up.
