Aside from the fact that it probably violates the First Amendment, which arguably because of the “incorporation doctrine” of SCOTUS, it trivializes what police officers have to endure. It the worst is a “dirty look”, I am sure that that all cops would rather face that then a weapon in some crazy or drugged up person.
Also, I really object to using the word “law” for anything that the Gooferment at any level does. The word “Law” is for things decreed by the Universe, or I dare say God. The Law of Gravity, the Law of Unintended Consequences, or even the Law of Karma. Those are real laws.
We should use the word “diktat” for what the Gooferment pretends is a “law”. It would be so much more honest. The Gooferment co-opts words like “voluntary compliance” for income tax, “contribution” for social security, or “welfare” aka freedom to starve.
And, finally, we should recognize that social norms — stop at a red light, yield to pedestrians, and hold the door for others — are for our own good and ensure that we have a safe society,
Argh!
