I used to use the expression, ‘hey, it’s a free country’
Not any more. Why would I do that?
Uh, suppose you just sit thre and refuse to cooperate?
Citizens think of such ideas; subjects, by contrast, mindlessly obey the authorities.
“The questioning was persistant.”
The only proper response would be,am I being detained?
