For the purposes of "political" protest, I find this interesting. <br><br>However, you'd have to make it like they make "funny money" - Stuff that says "no value" and "not legal tender" all over it, etc. I think I might also place clearly and promienently on the "document" that it grants the bearer no additional rights other than those which they already have. That alone should say something about what the document is good for.<br>

You really think that because it actually isn't a real government issued document that the cops won't go around and tsar you? I mean, hell, you can get into a 'lot of trouble' already even without getting the look alike government issued document.<div>

What does "in trouble" mean? As far as I can tell, it's not illegal. It may look very close to a government issued document, but if it doesn't claim to be one, and isn't impersonating one....<div><div>

Even though it sounds like an interesting idea, I feel like this stuff would get you in trouble mad fast.<br>

I saw this on Boingboing:<br><a href="http://jwz.livejournal.com/1046225.html?nc=23" target="_blank">http://jwz.livejournal.com/1046225.html?nc=23</a><br>(DHS photography license)<br><br>and thought.... if the license were not a US government document, it would be totally legal. <br>
<br>What if we formed a Noisebridge Department of Homeland Security, and issued our own legal licenses allowing us to do things that DHS is saying we can't? It's not forging a government document, because no such document exists. It's not impersonating a government employee, because we would be doing it under the guise of Noisebridge.<br>
<br>I don't know how wise it would be to present a NBDHS photography license to a law enforcement officer and expect to not make him mad, but it's a very interesting legal question.<br><font color="#888888"><br>aestetix<br>
