When the police want to arrest somebody that hasn't done anything illegal, they call it "disorderly conduct" and/or "obstructing justice".
Sometimes, they give you a beating and charge you with "resisting arrest".
I think this would apply to what you intend to do. |

No.
You have the right to express yourself.
Remember, though, that I have a wide area of discretion in how I do my job. If there is something ELSE I could arrest you for, that might make up my mind for me. |

No but you may be arrested for the drugs you had concealed in your pocket, and the threat to kill the officer!
Works both ways if you like |
