Fifth Amendment

Published by eclecticbird under Constitution Edit This

This isn’t strictly about the crazy world of politics in that it isn’t a news story.  However, it is excellent advice about the Fifth Amendment.  As the professor says, many people assume that invoking the Fifth Amendment means you are guilty.  Not so my friend.  Heck, a LOT of people don’t even realize they don’t have to talk to police if they don’t want to.  I taught American History and every time we’d get to the Constitution I’d have students who couldn’t believe they had rights. (a slight overstatement but not by much)  Oh that’s because they are kids you say?  Not so, I routinely read news articles that assume people don’t have basic rights.  But I digress.  I hope you enjoy the video.

What did you think of the video?  Will you invoke the Fifth Amendment if ever given the opportunity?
