The Arrest

Conflict

If you take part in direct action or the police don't like the look of you; you are likely to get arrested 
Here's some things to and not to do 
You don't have to say anything, nothing, but it is advisable (but still your choice) 
to give your name, address and date of birth, and then say nothing else 
If you don't give them this you'll find they will only hold you for longer 
While they establish your identity, but if you have been previously convicted 
Then don't give your date of birth, for you are on their computers in birth order 
Then you are not obliged to answer any further questions at all 
Most people that are caught are sussed out by their own evidence 
The police are cunning but thick, don't hand it to them on a plate 
You don't have to give your fingerprints, make them apply for a warrant 
This sometimes is refused - especially if the evidence is flimsy 
Never let them take your photograph this is only compulsory after 
You have received a prison sentence, so don't let them tell you different 
You can demand suitable food; you might not get it "keep on asking" 
You are entitled to make phone calls but the bastards won't let you 
Remember the arresting officer's number, or any scum that treat you badly 
Make a legal complaint afterwards. Look bored - but stay polite 
When they question say "no comment", don't admit to any weakness 
They are bastards trained by bastards 
To protect, detect, and prevent, us and our like from questioning 
Let alone, threaten the power that they cherish 
Whatever you go through in a police cell is nothing compared to the suffering inflicted by Governments 
The state destroys, tortures and murders, we must stop them, using force if necessary 
Remember that and good luck
