Questionable activities is inherently down to police discretion and what innocent actions you might be taking could look like to the police officer viewing from his car. In the video he mentions the size of criminal statutes and how potentially you could be breaking some obscure law without even realizing it nor intending to be. The point was, it's naive to think you're "doing nothing wrong, so you'll be ok" if only you'd drive that speed limit. If the law is obscure enough chances are the police don't even know it. That argument is pretty dumb. So because there are old or obscure laws on the books you should be allowed to break established well known ones? That's a nonsense argument. A police officer can only use discretion for established things such as if they think you're drinking and driving, possibly doing drugs and driving, not wearing a seatbelt, etc. They can't just pull you over for literally any reason whatsoever. I mean they could but what's the point? They're wasting their time as well and they can't ticket you for anything so why would they? --- https://imgur.com/4ihiyS2 "I am not gay!
