Stop, Drop, and Cower
Self ^ | 17 Jul 13 | Me

Posted on 07/17/2013 7:32:24 PM PDT by OneWingedShark

Earlier today while discussing why the Federal Government would want to pursue a "duty to retreat" in self defense cases a fellow FReeper responded: Stop, Drop, and Cower.

This gave me the idea for this handy brochure illustrating how to behave in an encounter with a government agent and is written from a low-level, bureaucratic-peon's viewpoint.

Good start. Consider changing government “agent is always right” to something along the line of “always trumps your rights.”

If you hurt an American and it turns out that the government liked that American, you die. The Haitian government doesn’t have that “maybe we shouldn’t kill people” switch turned on. The gangs run Port Au Prince but the government allows them to do it.
He was in country when the earthquake hit and getting him out was a real chore.

If the Holder-box is shaded, then yes.
For the time being, anyway. I'm going to consider input people have given, namely:

  1. possibly toning down the last panel (COWER), and
  2. re-wording so that the text does not overflow past the drop-caps.
Do you have any input?

I see a figure with an arm upraised? I would put it on the cover, but not subsequent panels, as the point has been made. Otherwise, I think it’s brilliant.

Hm, don't you think it would be a little bare w/o some background image/watermark? (There's really very little on the graphic-intensity scale, which is good… but I'm concerned that w/o something it'd be a bit bare.)

Otherwise, I think it’s brilliant.

Thank you very much.

Is this from the same people that told women to barf on themselves to prevent rape?

No, it's a over-the-top satirical informational brochure that I made.
