Thata clever idea and a good price for a white balance card, but I doubt that it would get a cop - or anyone else - off your back.

Maybe, maybe not. I doubt it can hurt.

First, enjoyed the article and thought it contained a lot of good advice. However, what I find lacking in this and similar such articles are the legal citations to support the conclusions and recommendations. Judicial rulings, court case outcomes, and citations of legal scholars will help the reader to fully understand their legal rights and what areas of the law are still under debate. Again, thanks, was a good read.

Guarantee it will not make any difference with a cop. What I dislike about the card it doesn't cite the provisions of the law, judicial rulings, etc. to support the guidelines.

Thanks for posting. I've been "stopped" several times recently. The ACLU has succinct guidelines on this which I now carry with me in a laminated form.

While despised by many, the ACLU does have an impressive record in winning cases where individual rights were being challenged or trampled.

I could never understand why the ACLU is so hated. The term "Civil Liberties" refers to our civil rights, as stated in the Bill of Rights in the Constitution. These are not priviledges granted by the government. They are rights that are retained by U. S. citizens, as opposed to being granted by the government. I don't think many people want to weaken them.

Just our Federal government.
