If you live in the US, or visit the US, and haven't yet watched the video "Talking to the Police by Professor James Duane" (right), please do yourself a favour and take the time. It may well preserve your freedom at some point. If you have friends who live in or visit the US who haven't watched it yet, please make sure to tell them about it. It may be the biggest favour you can ever do for them.
