When the cops tell you that they are arresting you for warrants, you do NOT have the option of being released. Take your lumps like a man and settle it in a courtroom, not the street. The cops are not there to hear your case, they are bound by law to arrest you then and there. Hmmm, seems this would be good information for a group of people nationwide who think they can do whatever they want when they find out it's time to go to jail.
