"Uh, maybe officer"RottenApple wrote:Two questions:
1) What happens (LEOs please chime in here) if an officer asks if there are any weapons in the car and you respond with silence or "nice weather today, huh"? Seems to me that the officer would then have probable cause (or at least reasonable suspicion) to search the vehicle. And yes, I know, "I do not consent to searches".
2) How would you answer with a response that is not a lie and doesn't give away that you do have a weapon in the vehicle?
You're neither confirming or deniying there are any weapons in the car.
