I still don't see why he had to act so obstinate about answering the questions. They even said, "If you don't have anything to hide, then why can't you answer the question?"

My only question is this - In answering, what could he have said that would have incriminated him?

Sounds like too much, unnecessary, drama on his part.

Again, drama on his part?

the guy did nothing wrong. he didnt do anything that should have gotten this kind of attention. His actions are not in question.

He had nothing to hide and was acting secretive, IMO. There was no need, was there?

My question again - What answer could he possibly have given that would have incriminated him? He said he was afraid of that, so what would have incriminated him? I don't get that part.

I'll check back later.

He was not acting secretive.

He was asserting his rights and freedoms as assured him by the Constitution of The United States.

Had their answer been yes... he would have answered.

The DID NOT answer yes because they had no legal standing to force him to answer those questions.

He knew they didn't.
He stood up to the challenge.
He won.

They had no right.
He knew they had no right.
He called their bluff.
He was set free.

That isn't being secretive. That is making sure your personal rights are recognized.

I say 3 cheers....

PO, I would likely acted exactly like he did, only I would likely have been a bit more forcefull.

bottom line is, HE was not the problem. THEY were.

That is the point. We can hear their threats.

DALLAS – The police officer who pulled out his gun and threatened an NFL player with jail instead of allowing him inside a hospital where his mother-in-law was dying resigned Wednesday.

Officer Robert Powell had been placed on paid leave pending an investigation of the March 18 incident.
