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>
