Best Answer

You cannot be arrested for failing to pay a debt. The collection could sue you, but the judgment would be nearly impossible to enforce. Your disability benefits cannot be taken or garnished to enforce the judgment. The most they could do is put the judgment on your credit rating, put a lien on your property and perhaps have some of your nonexempt property taken and sold to pay toward the judgment.

Would you get arrested if you said bomb in a airport?

From what I've read, yes, you can be arrested if you yell, "bomb", in an airport. Since 2001, especially, security has definitely increased in securing passengers. If this is a prank, the police officers and security guards will not find it very humorous. If not arrested, you could possibly be strip searched. Either way, trouble is headed your way if your planning to play that trick... Hope this helps!

Can you get arrested for being a retard?

While this question may be intended as a joke, it is sad to note that in the 1700s and 1800s, some people did get arrested because of their disability. Back then, there was fear of mentally retarded people, and a total lack of understanding about what causes this condition; undoubtedly, some mentally retarded or mentally ill people were arrested simply because they looked and acted so different. Today, it is rare for a mentally retarded person to be arrested as a result of prejudice. People in law enforcement are more familiar with the symptoms and behaviors one might see in a person who is developmentally delayed in some way. And if a person with retardation is arrested today, it is for suspicion of breaking the law, rather than because of a fear of that person's disability.
