is possessing a fake press pass illegal?

if it has the name of a real newspaper/agency?

if the name on the pass isn't yours?

if you use the pass to gain entry to an event?

my friend works for the AP, and i scanned his press pass (with his permission). i took out all identifying info, put in a fake name, and printed it up nicely. then i glued on a passport photo from walgreens, laminated it, and attached a neck lanyard. i even "aged" it a little so it looks like i've had it for a while.

all in all, it looks awesome...reeeally awesome!

combined with a vest, and the right attitude, i think this pass could definitely get me into some cool shooting situations.

i'm considering making another with my real name, since my biggest concern is the legality of using a false name. any help??

thanks,
wiley snap

p.s. i'm not looking for any moral guidance here. please limit replies to legal issues.

i am thinking of those who have had fun deriding bush for not knowing the capital of some absurd country or, the religious make-up of another.

wouldn't it be just as easy to point out intellectual shortcomings and flaws in these same people if their every word was recorded for prosperity?

for one, i worry about the slippery sloped logic of and lack of critical thinking skills among these people who are supposedly so much smarter yet, have allowed themselves to become immersed in their own pompousness and snobbery.

I mean, why do they have to drag this all out. They now know the cause of death, but won't tell til Monday.

A simple DNA test will tell who is the baby's father.....yet, that is still being dragged out, too. Why not just do the danged thing....say who the Dad is....and put it all to rest?

Why are the people in charge creating even more drama? All this needed to end weeks ago.

From the start, I've been oppossed to the war in Iraq. I've felt bad for the Americans that have died or been injured fighting, Bush's war, but this film really opened my eyes how seriously this war is destroying young Americans. The trauma that is being experienced by US troops should condemn Bush and all the money grabing neo cons to he!! for eternity. Sadly, I'm atheist, so it looks like those s o bs will just profit from the misery they are inflicting on the young of their country.

Sometimes I get really sad at the way the World is...people dying in Iraq and Afghanistan everyday, child molestors kidnapping children and people committing awful crimes to others, starving children in Africa, hundreds of thousands forced from their homes in Sudan....it may sound silly, but all these things really make me sad, and sometimes I feel like my job (an attorney) is so trivial and unimportant in the big scheme of things. I also feel like people are just too materialistic these days (money, fast cars, nice clothes, etc). Sometimes these feelings interfere with my own life by making me feel depressed and helpless. I try to do what I can for charity and stuff...but it just doesn't feel like enough. What can I do???

What up with the JFK conspiracy?
I mean some people beleve that there was more than one person who shot JFK, and the shots made by Lee Harvy(or how ever you spell it) missed, he shot 3 but only 1 hit the target. Was there one other person in Dallas that day? I dont know.
