NORML Freedom Card, Know and Understand Your Rights - Page 2

i dont really see the point in this. surely its an admission of guilt. if i was a cop and i went to someones house where they then presented me with a small prepared laminated peice of card id be imediatly suspicious. why would an innocent person have such a thing?

even if it does mean you dont get imediatly busted on the spot, it will mean youl probably be flagged and youl have to remove your grow anyway.

id rather just talke my chances and secure my grow as well as possible and then hope the cop doesnt find it.

cops cannot search anything that is locked in your posession without a warrent.
this includes your trunk and your glove compartment.

^^yep, at school, a lot of your rights are taken away, and the law gives the school this power. You, and anything else on school property (including your locker, your car, etc.) are all subject to random searches at any time.

Yeah ... earlier this year they brought the drug sniffing dogs and found pipes and weed in 4 of my fellow seniors cars ... they were all suspended except for one who actually had a quarter in his glove box. He got arrested and expelled -- and is now unable to walk at graduation with the rest of us (obviously)

Last year my car was searched -- it's actually a long story of how it happened but my boyfriend at the time was in the car and they searched it (we had been having a lot of bomb threats ... we had 2-3 a day for about 3 months ... I guess they thought there was a bomb in the car

) I know I wouldn't have been able to do anything about the search but I really would have appeciated it if they would have let me know beforehand instead of afterwards ... and I don't know what the were looking for ... that really did piss me off two undercover detectives questioning me like a damn criminal twenty minutes after the fact ... good thing I took my bowl out of the glove box the day before ... haha

There should be a Canadian one.

I'm just too lazy to be digging through the Canadian Constitution.

I think this shit has a high potential to work. Think about it .. the less you say the less he can suspect or uncover from yo shitfaced ass. Anyways, just give him the least attention possibly. Don't carry on conversations. Don't be rude. and dont make much eye contact if any. So if you give them this and keep yo trap shut you'll have a much better potential when the case is reviewed or you go on trial. Your atourney will know whats best and you can almost start fresh right there... They might not even have anything on you , because there was nothing to report at the crime-scene

The main thing is to be POLITE. Don't be copping an attitude. Don't answer any questions except your name and address. Anything else, just politely decline to answer unless your attorney is present. Don't consent to any searches. Don't acknowledge knowing about any "contraband" that might be found. A good lawyer will get things thrown out, just don't run your mouth!!!!

The point of this card is to use it when you are in a shitty situation. It will give you good grounds to get any evidence they illegally find tossed out or just sue them for violating your rights. They can and will do a "terry search" for anything that could harm them, meaning they can search you or any spot you have access to when they stop you unless you present them with that card or just say you invoke all your rights. If you dont do that and start answering questions thats implied consent and they will search you or get a drug dog. It would all depend on the situation, they can always try and do whatever they want but that doesnt make it lawful.

The thing about it is, for cops, there are ways to get around our rights..for example..suppose you say "No I do not want you to search my car.". If they suspect you have drugs, they will alot of times call a drug dog. If the drug dogs smells something in your car, your rights no longer exist and the act of a search is no longer "unreasonable".

Just something I always think about. Dont mean to be a downer.

Will this actually work?

and has anyone ever used it before?

DCrist721 · #27 (**permalink**) 11-09-2006, 02:24 AM

Its nothing special, just a card that says your rights. If you know your rights, all you need to do is tell the officer that your invoking all of your rights.

If you show this card to a cop he's going to immediatly call a k-9 unit haha we need a lawyer to respond here. My question is can the cops still call a k-9 unit even if you have refused to a search?
