If I was to burn (or rip) a dollar in front of a on duty police officer what would I be guilty of, what type of crime would this be (misdemeanor or felony), what exactly would the punishment be?
Please don’t send me hate mail, or hate IMs on this one. I wasn’t planning on doing it, if you don’t like the question, hit yourself in the head with a hammer or don’t answer.

It's a federal crime so all you would be guilty of is stupidity.

The officer Would probably encourage you to destroy more and when you were broke arrest you for vagrancy, a misdemeanor, and probably suggest you be evaluated by a psychiatrist to determine if you are a threat to yourself are another person. If you want to prone a high degree of ignorance then find some homeless doper and give the money to them, they will probably put it to good use.

undecided the place you're. interior the united kingdom all human beings has the flexibility to arest somebody who they witness committing an arrestable offence. the only particular ability the Police have is to arrest people who're suspected of committing crimes, no longer easily witnessed doing so. That ppwer is going with the place of work, no longer the job hours, so it nonetheless exists while law enforcement officials are off duty.

It is not against the law to destroy your own currency. I would advise ripping, however, because most places have burn bans inside city limits.

Annoying people, just like now. Of course, since it is a Federal Offense, he make take you in if you annoy him enough, which does seem quite possible.
