I’m legit going as a reaper in a graveyard at nite near a main road this weekend so people call the cops. When the police arrive, I’ll hand them this…


So cringe 😂
Why?
You should try alcohol and sex sometime bro
I get plenty of both, my dude. Some people are more restless and creative than others.
the problem is u want to get arrested. I think u meant confronted?
Correct, I don’t want to be arrested… but if am arrested it will be an easy lawsuit. But if confronted, I can and have dispersed the peacekeepers without a single word. After a few min they realize it’s just a dude walking around in a reaper costume in an unfenced public cemetery without posted hours. 
I feel like it'd be more appropriate in October tho but maybe it's too predictable then?
This is the point- the 1st & 5th amendment to the constitution don’t have “seasons”
Cool cool cool
Literally bro I’ve done this before and for some reason, people call the cops every time. It takes then about 5 minutes to calm down and actually stop asking questions because I don’t answer them at all. They realize that I’m in a public space, I’m not doing anything wrong, then eventually leave. I’m actually doing it to stress test the 1st & 5th amendment
Cool...cool cool
Based
I even bought distressed parchment paper to print these out !
Do it at a nursing home!! No not really lol The old people might have a heat attack and actuatlly die 😂
Oh my God, this is a fantastic idea! I could get arrested for involuntary manslaughter by causing heart attack and strokes But I kind of just be helping people along, right?
You'd be helping the government
And this shall be the decree:
To the Keepers of the King’s Peace, Good evening, Officers. Know this: I bear no weapon, nor do I stand upon forbidden ground. I walk only where the common folk may tread, beneath Heaven’s open sky. Unless ye hold suspicion of some particular crime, I shall not parley with thee, nor shall I yield my name or papers. Yet, should a name be demanded… I am called the Grim Reaper. I stand in a place of public keeping and cannot be lawfully cast out. I invoke the protections of the Fifth Amendment, and shall keep my own counsel and remain silent. Is my presence strange? Indeed. Is it unsettling and of an uncommon sort? Aye, without question. Yet what could be more fitting than for Death himself to wander amongst the stones of those who have gone before? The graveyard is an old friend to the Reaper, and the departed keep good company. I engage in no mischief, nor do I disturb the peace. I exercise only those liberties secured to a free people by the First Amendment, namely the freedom of spee…

We all have our thang…
Its a good way to waste pigs time. I like it
My favorite is when they ask me for ID over and over again and I point to the decree, but say not a single word. They end up leaving everytime
So this sounds great until the end, where an officer who is on edge bc of other issues in the day takes it as a threat and detains you, lawfully, for threatening an officer to "make room at your side on the way to the afterlife" -like, don't get me wrong, it's cool, but your dressed as death in a spooky as place, and that is enough to be viewed as a threat by someone who can legally hurt you when they feel threatened.
It’s all about body language, bro, just like it a traffic stop. Don’t act like a threat, and you won’t be perceived as a threat You gotta work on your reading comprehension. It’s an invitation to walk with me, not a threat of violence.
The cop signs up for this job. If they are on edge from something else that happened during the day, they need a new line of work. They get paid to not let that affect the next phone call they get

Fast track to night in jail.
Nah.
Hi
Is this a mental illness?
No… those are trannies. I get into costume, and then take it off.
Ironically just like a drag queen then 🤔
If you like, sure
Smells like criminal trespassing to me
How so?
Virtually every graveyard is either private property or municipal property and explicitly operate from dawn to dusk, with hours of operation signs posted. So criminal tresspass. Depending on the cop you might also get charged with disorderly conduct or disturbing the peace on the grounds that you are making an intentional attempt to frighten or create unease. There is precedent for disorderly conduct to be escalated to a felony charge when near funerals so that could go very poorly depending on how court goes. If you really want a party, bring a shovel and catch like 6 other charges relating to graverobbing, which is something they'll be suspicious of anyways
Nope… the ones I go to and do this have no published hours, no signage, and no fences or gates. Just because someone is uncomfortable, doesn’t mean my rights as a citizen evaporate. The best thing to do with cops is just saying nothing.
Yikes
Stress testing our rights!
That's deep bro.
Would u call the cops if I saw a reaper a cemetary?
