    Your civil state laws are still intact depending on the state, but a lot of this is the logical extremist conclusion of the patriot act and qualified immunity precedence, which is to say police have been elevated to a degree higher than that of a citizen with less responsibility than a citizen at the same time. Lazy politicians love the executive and we’ve had nothing but lazy majority politicians for a long time. It will not be easy to purge everyone that needs to go in order to fix this shitpile.

    To more directly answer your question: Your rights depend on your actions and the system makes it very hard for you and very easy for them to create a situation that benefits you. You technically have a lot of rights, but if used would result in death with little accountability because court survivor bias. The answer mostly is to make sure you survive while asserting your rights on video, then follow up in court to take a chunk of their massive budget for stuff like this. You will likely win only if you do everything right and have video and audio evidence of doing so.
