Is it illegal to suddenly start running if you see a cop, even though you haven’t committed any crimes?

If they tell you to stop it becomes one.
Probably suspicious which will result in an arrest or at least a search
how so?
I've done it multiple times younger as a joke. It is when they say stop, and they don't like the joke at all when they get to you. Better be caught with dope and sweet talk your way out of it in most european countries.
Because at that point it becomes fleeing or evading or whatever. Don’t think you can get into much trouble (more like a ticket) but yeah.
what if I put in ear plugs everywhere I go
its not a crime if I cant hear him or what if I was deaf
If they told you to stop yes
We used to do this for fun in the late 70's but they can just shoot you now, cuz they all too fat 2 run, and it would shame them if you got away. Can't hurt dey Berlin's no moe
No but it makes you look very suspicious and they’ll probably ask you what you’re doing
i had a friend in high school that would point at cop cars and then take off running he always got chased
That's the fun of it, running is not illegal. Now if they order you to stop then you better stop, but we would leave them in the dust 90% of the time. The pursuit was over just as fast as it started.
Are you trying to purposely fuck with cops
Your retardation will be confirmed after they caught you. Nothing will probably happen
im not OP im just riffing here
Then you're fine. They can beat the shit out of you for resisting arrest but you can't be charged only with resisting arrest
Trust me if you have to ask Yea Forums these questions you don't know enough to get away with arrest
No but it's not illegal for them to stop you by any means necessary either if you're being that fucking suspicious (i.e. the average adult juror will side with the state)
TELL IT TO THE JUDGE.
No they just shoot now because minorities and hicks shoot up parks and schools
lmfao
check

Generally no, but the most important thing in the world to remember is "might makes right." Your question reminded me of it. You can get into all the legal technicalities you want but at the end of the day it's just a guy with a gun and a badge who can do whatever he wants in that moment
Quit pretending like niggers run when they aren't commiting crimes.
It's not illegal but it DOES give police probable cause for stopping you and searching you.
Doing that is EXTREMELY shady, and police will with 90% certainty stop you, and rightly so.
If you don't want to be harassed by police, don't be shady.
its illegal if you are a nigger
I did that omce. My mates stole a bottle of vodka i was just waiting outside no one told me they were gunna do that. The ran past me, i ran out of instinct even though i could have stood there. If youre innocent then why would you run?
Risky maneuver, the dog that catches you isn’t going to care if you’re guilty or not.
Factually untrue, police have strict laws to follow, and law enforcement regularly gets convicted for having broken the law.
It's only a niggerfantasy that police can go around and do whatever they want, this isn't Africa, police are held responsible for criminal conduct in the west.
not illegal
but it does give the cops probable cause to search your person
It's called CONTEMPT-A-COP. The dumb fuck cops that run after people when they don't have a charge. Usually a good ol boy department has these kind of strays, and 10% in other departments.
I would, I'd have sufficient evidence completely exonerating myself
Not same user but I’ve seen more cops get away with things than convicted, easiest way to deal with them is video every interaction and don’t say a word. (Most people don’t realize right to remain silent counts whether you’re arrested or not)
Oh and don’t let a cop tell you recording them is illegal, they’re a public servant on public land and god damn right you can.
As soon you start running you resisting arrest and thats atleast a felony with upto 5 years in prison even if youre clean. Judge will probably state that you caused public distress aswell and this combined could put you behind bars for a decade.
In the states if an officer gives you a lawful order to stop running, which they can only do if they've reasonable suspicion or probable cause that you're about to, in the process of or recently have committed a crime, and you continue to run that's usually a misdemeanor charge.
Police sirens and lights count as a lawful order to stop, so if there's a cop car following you whilst you run with lights and sirens it's called an 'implied stop'.
No but you may be warning-shot in the head because you had a weapon and were clearly trying to shoot the cop.
You could try to dance away. That'd just be weird.
>You could try to dance away. That'd just be weird.
I like the way you think, I was just doing the 'full speed run' dance
Felony... WTF. It's a a simple misdemeanor in California. And they have to prove that you knew you were not free to leave. It's a weak 148pc
What is if I call them just to tell them they're assholes ? Would I get bonus points for being honest when the SWAT team arrives through the windows ?
Maybe.
Illegal, no. bad idea and guaranteed asswhoopin if they catch you, yes.
What if you have elopement due to autism?
