know your rights and know your rights.
***
Sorry, no one asked me for this, but since we're on the subject...

Will forever be grateful to the person who insisted I learn this.

Here's just one Google page:
https://www.google.com/search?q=know+your+rights+with+police&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

And was also told, once more:
Be courteous. It doesn't cost you anything. Even if you feel your pride's a bit bent, even if you want to vent...wait. If there's really an issue and the official video pops up, you want to be reasonable beyond doubt. That does NOT mean subservient.

No one was willing to call this guy's supervisor...aaaahhhhhh
How did no one ask for his badge number, precinct, watch commander? ]

Seems often LE probably mirrors the society it's set up to protect.
Many hard-working good people, also a few so-so, and some really terrible ones along the way.

Everyone wants to talk about how people should have verified the guy's identity, but they would only do that if they doubted he was a cop. No one did until Harold -- I've always suspected he'd had more experience with real cops than anyone else there -- came along. Once people actually questioned what was going on, the whole thing fell apart.

YES!
That's what I picked up too; somehow the character comes across as a military vet (so he KNOWS chain of command and procedure rule) annnd...he's had to deal with the police a lot. Maybe his fault maybe not but that's how he knows.
