The power of the state to infringe on the liberty of the individual is a concern in any free society. Most people would not want to live in a place where they could be arbitrarily stopped and searched, or detained and arrested without being informed of their rights. At the same time, it is necessary to allow the state to carry out legitimate functions of investigation and prosecution of criminal acts.
