Unless you are detained, physically locked into handcuffs, you can tell any cop to eat your ass instead of emptying your pockets. They have no legal authority to ask this shit unless they arrest you under reasonable suspicions.

    Unfortunately they aren’t legally obligated to eat your ass.

    You could always hand them a spoon, but your results may vary

    This is a great way to get detained, physically locked into handcuffs and not being able anymore to tell any cop to eat your ass.

    Not in Canada, depending on how white and employed you look.

    Let's not make such sweeping generalisations.

    For example, in the UK, the police have the legal power to search you if the have reasonable grounds to suspect that you have something on you in a few categories, like drugs. There are even (yet more controversial) powers to search people just because they're in a specific area (though there are restrictions on why an area can be so designated). You don't need to be arrested or handcuffed for this, although you might be.
