Bathroom Access Act comment on Reddit from u/ANJohnson83 If you have a qualifying medical condition in many states, you must legally be allowed to use the bathroom in a commercial building, even if it is not normally for public use

NAACP Know Your Rights Section This is more than I ever learned in school. Read this, memorize it. While you're at it consider becoming a member of the NAACP at some point. Also, this information is so well buried I've spent years trying to pore over legal textbooks to find it and still not finding it.

  • ACLU Know Your Rights Section Added 1/14/23 Has more info on your rights under the law. This is great, it seems like the NAACP may have started a trend.
  • I do wish to know how to help people who are victims of a crime to obtain the evidence of said crime, especially if it is ongoing, and how to handle the issue until it is handled appropriately by the courts, in order to get the justice they deserve. However, same problem applies. If you happen to be a lawyer, maybe you can put this info online somewhere people get easy access to it, such as on r/legaladvice or similar

    How to report a crime: Since the law will "out" you to the accused if you do this the wrong way aka it will reveal your identity to the creep (yes, really), such as if you just call the cops on them, etc, if you are willing to accept the risk the perpetrator will still find out who sicced the law on them despite all precautions you take, use Crime Stoppers. Their whole deal is that they are supposed to keep whistleblowers anonymous. To keep yourself even more anonymous, the ideal way to do it would be to use Protonmail.com with a burner email address from both a computer and a network hub that is not yours, using a proxy or better yet Tor, and email one of these hotlines with the tip, but they don't seem to understand the notion of cybersecurity (sigh). You might need to do some digging to find their email address and anonymously tip them off. If that ain't gonna happen, both Buzzfeed News and The Guardian have directions for anonymous tipsters to follow. Yep, get the press involved if you need to.

    Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols That these are only applicable in some militaries and not, even in part, in the law of the land surely reflects poorly on the law of the land

    TV shows - these are helpful for the most basic introduction and are, generally speaking, outdated and don't provide enough information but boy are they ever better than nothing
