What do you like about this subject?

I find it amazing that as educated as our country is, so few people truly know their rights.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

Help individuals learn about our justice system and to flex their rights.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

We have more rights than most people know.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

Bahavioral identification and racial profiling are virtually identical, its all about symantics.
