    Not really demote but I saw this image earlier and my first thought was these AIO coolers are getting a bit out of hand...

    Dunno about the UK, but you certainly can in the USA. I know because it happened to a close friend of mine.

    I suppose that technically you can't in the USA either as your arrested on suspicion on committing offence. Innocent before proven guilty and all that.

    Don't get me wrong, you can be arrested for resisting arrest, but by definition you have to be deemed (fairly or otherwise) to have been resisting arrest having done something that warranted arrest in the first place.
    Otherwise it's simply a misnomer and you are actually being arrested for something else. Failure to comply, disturbing the peace or something.
