I have absolutely no idea what you are trying to say.
It sounds like you are implying that keeping mum is legally equivalent to agreeing to anything that a police officer says. That simply isn't true.
If you have something useful to contribute, please make it more clear and include a citation somewhat more precise than "somewhere within the 2052 pages of Black's Law Dictionary".
- anonbanker 12y agoInteresting quote you put there. Did I say that? But sure, i'll be happy to do your homework for you. Grab your book, an look up the following words: "You" "Right" "Remain" "Silent" "Attorney" "Afford" "Understand" Those would probably be a good start for you. You'll learn they don't mean what you think they mean. Afterwards, might I suggest a book on offer and acceptance? The "Examples and Explanations" series has a great book on Contracts, and might get you to a deeper understanding of the meaning of silence.

- anonbanker 12y agoWe'll consider your silence to the rest of my post as agreement to its contents.
