You know at some point we have to talk to our kids about sex. I wonder if we should also take the time to talk to our kids about how to interact with the police. Knowing how to conduct yourself can go a long way in police community relations. Often times it's kid who are being abused by police officers, and I just wonder if the kids aren't fueling a lot of this simply by not showing respect for the authority which police are trusted with.
Rule number one: When a cop gives you a lawful and reasonable command you obey.
Rule number two: Listen and don't speak.
Rule number three: Don't run from the police, argue with them, or antagonize them in any way.
Rule number four: If your being arrested, don't speak to anyone but your parents or your lawyer.
If there is any action that must be sorted out. Let the lawyers sort it out.
This is the talk after the sex talk.
