What is a 5th? And why is everyone talking about that?

[-] Chetzemoka@startrek.website 17 points 1 year ago

The 5th Amendment to the United States Constitution affirms citizens' right not to talk to investigating authorities. It's what they're referring to when you see cops in movies tell people "you have the right to remain silent"

Right to remain silent... Most people have no idea what they should do in that situation, and they get some shitty free lawyer that loses the case in court. The justice system in the US is ridiculous. :)

Rich people do what the hell they want, poor people get treated like dog shit.

Very true. Its literally their job to be actually smart human beings with a good sense of morailty, but they prefer to be the moralizer and make you talk shit that brings to to trouble. They can literally carry guns (exclusively in Germany) and restrict you how they want.

I experiences other peoples troubles in car lobby protests in munich. It was insane, the city was completely full of cops, defending this insanity as if it was an important legal asset
