Ninety-five percent of the males arrested for violating local ordinances either didn't know there was a local ordinance or ignored the local ordinance. The remaining five percent who did not get arrested were either lucky or voluntarily complied with the ordinance.

If John Q. Public and/or another anonymous male are/is arrested for violating a local ordinance (e.g., loitering, sharing a booth, sexual misconduct, etc.), they usually experience a temporary learning disability -- not exercising their right to remain silent. If an undercover law enforcement officer does effect the arrest of anyone upon probable cause a local ordinance was violated, always exercise your right to remain silent and retain a competent lawyer to advise you of all of your rights.

Be and remain polite towards any law enforcement officer who effects an arrest. You will be required to provide personal identification of yourself. You are not obligated to give up your right to remain silent on any question that goes beyond establishing your identity. Remain silent and obtain a competent lawyer. If you cannot afford a competent lawyer of your own choosing, a legal counsel will be appointed to represent you. Under no circumstance should you answer any questions or make any statements without competent legal counsel.
