the whole point of the above anecdote was that by answering the questions, you've expanded their scope.
if they're going to arrest you, there's nothing you're going to say to talk them out of it. all you can do by talking is convince them to arrest you.
you can't talk them out of anything they were already going to do; they're just talking to you because so many folks think the way you do, that they're somehow clever enough to say the thing that prevents the arrest.
