To the police, getting an attorney automatically makes you guilty.
Umm, actually, no they're not. The Miranda WARNING is actually to remind people who have been arrested that they have a constitutional right to remain silent when the police question them. It's amazing to me that people STILL do more than identify themselves to the police without an attorney present. They even tell you that anything you say CAN and WILL be used against you in court. I'd just ask for a coke, a lawyer, and shut up.
That is what Miranda Rights are for.

Most people disagree with being arrested, because they are actually in danger of going to prison. Schumer seems to think it is something glamorous. Maybe they should send her to nice term of 90 days or so in a real prison, instead of quickly "processing" her and sending her back on the street.
