Those bullet points are all out of whack.

These are good rules of thumb for dealing with the police in general.
Be calm, polite, respectful but firm.
Do not open your door, do not talk to them without a lawyer present, do not allow them to search your car or house without a warrant.
If they start searching your house or car without a warrant say loudly and clearly (but not angrily) that you do not consent to a search.

Also remember that you must state “I wish to exercise my 5th amendment rights”. Under SCOTUS’ ruling on Salinas vs Texas (2013), your silence can be admissible as evidence in court, expressly invoking your 5th amendment rights cannot be.
