Below is a card that Icreated in the aftermath of the San Pedro-L.A.P.D. contact of January 3rd,to which I was a party.
I like to think of it as a "safe conduct pass," eventhough it is not one in the tradition sense, as anyone who might have served in a combat zone (Korea, Viet Nam, South Central L.A.,etc) will attest.
This isreally along the lines of a "please read this, dear officer, while I stand here and keep my effin' mouth shut"information card. Now, those who take the time to familiarize themselves with the referenced SCOTUS cases will be armed with knowledge that may be verbally offered for clarification purposesin the event of a contact situation similar to that of January 3rd (certainly not all contacts require this sort of device).
I will wear it in my shirt pocket and offer it (especially when handcuffed) to the detaining officer/deputy if necessary.
Iam planning on printing outa number of these and have them laminated for distribution to those I may group UOC with.
Please feel free to adopt / adapt / print and use as you see fit, but I really think that as itis, it is short, sweet and to the point.
