One?

I could have a garage sale with just westlaw, lexis, and barbri shite.

Besides pocket constitutions, I'll never have to buy another liquid holding container or anything funky having to do with a pen, a highlighter, or sticky tabs.

if you think if you get pulled over that you'll quickly consult your book and find some great page in the Constitution that'll leave the cops stumped and they'll let you go on about your day, you're pretty darn naive


it would make one hell of a story for the guys back at the station though

Are you going to paper cut the authorities to death?

Yeah, but in my desk drawer. If some LEO is going to do something Unconstitutional on the side of the road, I won't be arguing about it there. Courts exist for a reason.

I still have FRCP and Rules of Evidence and I found a pair of Themis-branded earplugs and hand-sanitizer a few weeks back (graduated 4 years ago). I'm sure there's more stuff around in my garage

Cops love engaging in constitutional debates on the side of the road. They enjoy the intellectual rigor.

Skip the copy of the constitution and the only thing you need to know is "I am respectfully invoking my right to remain silent and not answer any questions."

With all the craziness going on in Australia and what Xiden is doing to our country I feel like this is a must. Anyone else have one of these? Any tips on how to approach a situation where you feel like your rights are being infringed upon? I’m not looking for a fight but I’m prepared for one.


Leftists don’t really care for the constitution. Not sure how it’s going to help you.

The first tip would be to read 230 years of case law in order to interpret the words in a useful manner.

Seriously, you will never change anyone's mind waving the Constitution. Document the encounter and go from there.

Pretty much all that needs to be said. You could of course just start rattling off hundreds of years of jurisprudence while an officer is trying to arrest you. I'm sure they'd love that.

Just bust out your Crim Pro hornbook and throw it at them.
