Well have a followup Panel Discussion from 3 00 to 4 30 in which well have some panelists, including myself that are going to discuss hopefully the foundation of where these rules came from and why they actually are needed. You say the goals of the ten rules, there are ten we may not get to all of them but the key point you want to get across. Key point i want to get across is at the end of the day, when youre stopped by Police Officers, you have to realize your main goal is to get home to your family and to your loved ones and being safer. You also have to take safe. You also have to take into account this is the Police Officers goal. Does it make sense we have to teach these rules . Maybe not but in a society where weve been introduced to some of the things that have occurred, it makes sense that you first and foremost have to survive the stop. Thats the key component well be addressing on thursday are these survival rules are so that you have an opportunity to real to see to really live to see another day. Give us another rule. Be respectful. And be respectful of a Police Officers authority, not because you may like what youre being stopped for but you also have to realize at any given time he has the fall back of being able to say i felt threatened and you dont want to give the officer to determine whats going to happen to you in that situation.
