I've had some runins with the po-po and in general you should just stay calm and keep quiet or say the same things you've already said over and over. Once aaages ago me and a friend got busted for some stupid shit at a nightclub and when I was being questioned some weeks later I was just saying I don't remember. And the time when I was thrown into jail when defending a friend of mine who got into a fight outside this club I also said nothing. Funny thing is, both things disappeared without consequences | ||

Not saying you should or shouldn't talk, that's up to you, but you have to realize you will probably spend a night behind bars if you don't. Well, Germany is a bit different compared to the US. There is a really good guide called BUSTED: The citizen's guide to surviving police encounters: In comparison to that (for German speakers), some enlightenment on police methods and house searches with a focus on file sharing in Germany by Udo Vetter (lawblog.de): Seems to me that the civil rights in the U.S. are a bit more extensive.  | ||

They are pretty much comparable. Thing is the cops don't give a fuck about your rights when you don't cooperate - they'll just throw you in jail anyway because they know it's probably not worth it for you to press charges. Last time I got arrested essentially for walking to the cab stand just because I refused to cooperate in any way. They even forcefully strip searched me with 3 guys holding me down, took all my stuff like cell phone, shoes and threw me in the cell for the night. Charged 100 Euro for this service too. I protested to the police chief in full detail and all I got was: No, the officers didn't do anything wrong, but we are going to drop the 100 euro charge. Another time I was on my way to a football game and we got pulled over and they asked us to let them search the car. If we wouldn't have they'd take us to the police station since one of us didn't have ID. Sure we could have protested and refused and missed a football game. It's always the same pattern. They overstep their boundaries if they know it's too costly for you to go after them. | ||

doing what police want you to do is ideal because they are generally assholes and will fuck with you if you dont please them but talking to police = bad idea. i almost got 6+ months in jail because i used the wrong terminology (and my lawyer told me to stfu) | ||
