I saw that yesterday and thought it over for a bit and wonder if this card is another Russian disinformation campaign meant to stir shit up and divide the nation?

Didn’t all the inhabitants of the original planet die of a virus because a telephone wasn’t properly disinfected?

I’d chose another approach and have these little guys do the dirty work

Remember that the “non-useless people” left behind on Golgafrincham died of a virulent disease contracted from dirty telephones. There is a lesson in there about essential workers in our current times.

Plus, these are all undoubtedly the same libertarians who say stores should be able to discriminate, because, you know, the market should decide what businesses do, and if businesses are unethical or unfair, they will be treated accordingly by the market, because people won’t patronize them and the business will fail.

18 U.S. Code § 912. False Personation of an officer or employee of the United States
Whoever falsely assumes or pretends to be an officer or employee acting under the authority of the United States or any department, agency or officer thereof, and acts as such, or in such pretended character demands or obtains any money, paper, document, or thing of value, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both. –https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/912
From the law, you don’t have to be using the impersonation to commit fraud. The impersonation itself is illegal.

I was a bit disappointed that the bar code was just a number and not something more assertive.

This is wonderful, thanks! I was just wracking my brain and the best I could come up with was something along the lines of “Freedom To Beat yr Ass” for being an antisocial citizen, but this is so much better. I hope I don’t run into anyone wielding the original FTBA card, but if I do, I’m going to have one of these on hand to give them. Maybe I’ll make some and just distribute around to local workers at grocery stores and the like.
