I just watched a particularly interesting You tube video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=sqbmasNeOmM
For preventative purposes and save a hefty lawyer fee, What do the police have legal permission do to or with a citizen and what do we citizens have the legal right to decline?

List the rights for the convenience of one stop shopping to anyone who happens to search this question after it's asked.

The US Constitution and your state constitution. All other "rights" are privileges.

You might want to watch this YouTube video ("The citizen's guide to surviving police encounters"), it covers some of your questions: (Y!A won't accept the link, just go to YouTube and put the video title in the search box)

Where? how about about three years of law school?
The 'text' of the rights are in the first ten amendments to the constitution. HOW exactly they are applied can be found in 200 years of case law and precedent.
If you have a more specific question, someone can help you out :-)

Try the U.S. Constitution, particularly the Bill of Rights.
If you have more questions, try going to the ACLU website and see what you can get there.
