A Marin County man, who goes by the name of Sierra Tunafish George Salin, found that the El Dorado County highway patrol were not amused by his signing his traffic ticket “LoveHeals!” They issued a warrant for his arrest.
“This is a basic judicial impingement of my First Amendment free speech and expression, and a waste of the judicial system,” wrote Salin in an email. “There is a big difference between a name, and a signature, and in fact, most people’s signatures are not decipherable as a name.” -db
