Inspired by these two threads in GQ. These days on the internet at least the discussion about rights seems to have been hijacked by these ‘sovereign citizen’ assclowns who give those really looking to assert their rights a bad name.
Has there been a time where you’ve invoked your rights with the police or other law enforcement authority? How’d it go?
Sure, but it was in court.
I fought The Man, and I won. Got a parking ticket thrown out of court on due process grounds.
The judge agreed that the city’s form that officers filled out when issuing a ticket failed to comply with statutory requirements for a citation. Prosecutor slowly realized that every single parking ticket issued in that city over the course of many years had the same problem.
