Civil Liberties Mugged
October 19, 2005
For those of you feeling a bit iffy about your civil liberties these days, Acorn has a set of “Disappearing Civil Liberties” mugs…
Freedom of speech and the press — gone. Protection from unreasonable searches and seizures — vanished. Speedy and public trial — pfft. Pour in a hot beverage and watch the Bill of Rights disappear.
On the other hand, I suppose you can watch your rights come back as your coffee or tea cools…
Or use it to drink a nice chilled alcoholic beverage and have no more worries…
(via BoingBoing, who notes that much like the Bill of Rights, these mugs are much more fragile than they look)
