is [Music] [Applause] i have never seen so many people scared of a man or woman with a video camera in my life i don't know what's going on in these public buildings but they're they're so scared of the camera that they'll do anything that they possibly can to try to get somebody to let go of their rights inalienable rights you have them i have them not because we're americans not because you're male female black white or whatever you have inalienable rights because you're a human being and when you enter a public building your inalienable rights don't evaporate it's not like when you open that town hall door this right here is orangetown new york this is the town hall in orangetown new york sean is there from long island audits conducting a first amendment audit and it's almost like when you enter some of these buildings you enter into some kind of portal where on the other side of that door you lose all of your rights in the eyes of these public servants we're gonna we're gonna watch one of these public servants right now watch how pompous they are watch how with a straight face they tell you oh you don't have a right you have to have a permit in order to do what you're doing and when you have a permit a permit is just short for permission a permission slip from an another adult that's how insane this is you need a permit you need me an adult to tell you an adult then i will permit you to do this or not permit you to do this along the lines of you having an inalienable right to do what you're doing exercising a constitutionally protected right and if anybody was going to uphold those rights it's supposed to be somebody who calls themselves a public servant and yet they sit there with a straight face and act like they're your master now watch speaking of master watch how masterful sean from long island audit is as he calmly and coolly and rationally articulates his rights and puts them on blast showing them that they don't care about rights and all they're there to do is trample rights we're gonna we're talking about public servants in this town hall in orangetown new york and the public servants who call themselves law enforcers let's check this out are you filming hi ma'am how are you good how are you are you filming um who are you first who are you first no no no how are you i'm sorry you're in my building who are you i'm in your building this is the town of orangetown's building and let me just let me just pause it right here who is this lady according to sean her name is carmel riley and here's her email address if you care to you know take a look and write that down her boss is teresa kenny supervisor teresa kennedy can be found at this email address at this phone number and at this extension let's watch let's do a

you don't own the building the people own the building man this is a public building yeah and forget about me filming how about your claim the claim is that this is your building can you substantiate the claim that this is your building how is it that this isn't our building this is a public building that all taxpayers have a stake in this building you need to have do you have a permit to film here do i have a permit yeah i do not have a permit no okay so in order to form and film in this building you need a permit that's not true that's not true who are you yeah really who are you so i know who i spoke with i want to know how come you think you don't need a permit is your name on your shirt i can't really see i want to know how come you think he does need a permit especially in light of this little thing that people seem to just enjoy forgetting the first amendment congress shall make no law congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof or abridging the freedom of speech or of the press and even the first amendment is not your permit what i was thinking was maybe we can print out a whole bunch of first amendments and go oh yeah here's my permit right here but that's not a permit you don't you don't want to say that something in existence gives you permission to do what you have the natural right to do your permit is the fact that you have a heartbeat in your chest you're a human being you have the right to film in a public place and nobody has the right to um to anonymity or privacy in a public place everyone should know this especially public servants work for the supervisor's office because you're not allowed to film here with that apartment ma'am why are you becoming so hostile how are you doing sir officer kayla foreign police department how are you doing what's going on today nothing just filming okay i don't i don't need a permit i'm gonna ask you to leave now why didn't this cop say he doesn't have to have a permit i mean we have a first amendment this is america he did not slip off into mexico and entered some matrix portal when he opened that front door we're not in russia we're not in cuba we're not in venezuela we're not in you know north korea we're in america he doesn't have to have a permit to film at a public place he this cop should have just laughed this woman out of the room but watch his eyes you can tell by this officer's eyes who his boss is his boss isn't the cameraman in his eyes it should be because he's a public servant he's supposed to be serving the public his boss is this woman who's trying to call the shots watch his eyes i'd like that shuttle this is i don't want it this way you could turn it off or i could take it from me don't touch me if you are you ordering me to leave i'm ordering you to leave so i want that filming whatever turn it off don't i'm walking out this is not again look look he's looking over at her oh i'm getting my cues from my boss that's my real boss is what he's saying in his mind he might as well he might as well verbalize this with his voice box this woman is his boss and he's got to try to he's got to try to save face and look good for his boss because you know we work with what's her name again carmel i work with carmel every day i don't want her to think that i'm you know not doing my duty i don't want to make carmel think that i'm less of a man by not taking care of this dastardly guy with the camera so this is a constitutionally protected activity i'm trying to you're trying i'm off the phone i am trying to walk past you to leave the phone i want to make it clear i'm trying to walk past you to leave because you're obviously oh and by the way that's officer caleb k-a-l-a-f badge number 272 officer calif badge 272. you're going to need some complaints don't touch my phone he grabbed his problem i have a body camera on too don't touch my phone what are you guys doing she seems emboldened and empowered that a guy with a firearm a ban an armed bandit is now on her side so now she is empowered they really want to gang up on sean here this is against the law this is against the law give me your license this is against the law so not only is he attempting to violate his first amendment right by saying oh give me your license relinquish your id i need to find out who you are so i can write my report he's attempting to violate his fourth amendment right to be secure in his person yep we must have we must have entered a portal somewhere where uh inalienable rights no longer exist in this plane of reality this is what crime do i committed i can ask you for your id you can um do you have reasonable articulable suspicion that i've committed a crime sir you don't have a prime minister that's not a crime that doesn't mean this is a public this is a public building you don't have permission to exercise your constitutionally protected rights wait a minute that that doesn't sound right permission to exercise your constitutionally protect your rights that's weird get your supervisor please i'm asking for your supervisor i'm gonna wait right here i'm sure your policy states that if i ask for your supervisor you have to get me one so i'm can you get me a supervisor because you're gonna make a big mistake here what's my mistake your mistake is you're violating my are in a government rights you just grab that doesn't matter this is a public bill i'm not well what is that i'm not i'm not violating your rights i can't be violating rights you're in a government building see that proves that i am not violating your rights what is what does being in a government building have anything to do with the fact that this guy is sitting here going out of his way to violate his rights it's almost like he took an oath to violate rights not to protect rights yes i am this is a public building i'm a journalist i have freedom of i have freedom of press you want our supervisor yes i want your supervisor down to the police department's side and we'll bring ourselves great tell him not to touch me don't touch me again you touch my fam you touch my camera you need

eyes lit up because his master is the town ordinance is this a law is in the constitution no it's the town ordinance you have to file the ordinance is the ordinance the supreme law of the land and this here building this here publicly accessible building it's not a law where's the code go get the town attorney go get him i'm sure he'll i'm sure he'll educate you ma'am if he's if he's good at what his job i'm sure he'll educate you insult me offense offense taken we're taking in water we're going under the ego's just been damaged excuse me uh educate are you did you just say something highly offensive or do i just have thin skin i'm not trying to insult you oh yeah yeah because you obviously don't know freedom of press i issue the permits in this building and the town of orange you obviously don't understand i have a right to freedom of press ma'am you do not have the right to film in this i do this is a public building you're talking about for commercial film again you need did you pay 5 000 and did i issue you a permit did i give you permission sonny boy i'm the master i'm the overlord and you're gonna dish out five thousand dollars and you can't engage in constitutionally protected activity education go get the town attorney please you're talking about commercial filming i'm not gonna have you dismiss me like i'm some peon i'm okay ma'am you've been treating me bad you've grabbed my camera please get me a supervisor she's the one that walked up with the dismissive attitude excuse me are you filming here how dare you exercise constitutional protected right over here in america wow amazing it's it's ironic and it's amazing the depth of the blindness that every one of these public servants has toward a member of the public who simply walks in with a camera it's like what do these people have to hide why is this why are they so um why do they have such an aversion to transparency please get me a supervisor town hall side come with me to the police department we'll get supervisor don't touch me ever again please excuse me get out my way thank you excuse me sir sorry about that no i don't trust this guy behind me he's a loose cannon 272 caleb 272 just got uncopped reyes uh sean reyes from long island audit just took this the ego of this man out of his uniform and now he's just become a regular guy don't touch me ever again cops do not like to be talked to like that loose cannon uneducated they're so pompous orangetown police department right there in town hall there's the office what are you in training men like i don't understand what's wrong with you in training because he doesn't understand that i have the right to film number one number two he puts his hands on my equipment which he cannot do but you don't have the right to film inside for no legitimate reason which is what he was trying to explain to you that's what we're trying to figure out first of all no one before exactly i'm an independent journalist gathering content for a story i'm working on a story city hall i have to go see the town clerk right to do a freedom of information act request but you don't do that at the town clerk though that goes to the records department no i'm i'm talking about i'm not talking about for the police department it's coming in i'm not talking i'm not talking about for the police department so i'm talking about for the town for the town so that's why i need to see the town clerk okay but escalating the situation like that that's not cool grabbing my camera you know ordering me to leave a public building you have no authority to order me to leave a public building i'm conducting business constitutionally protected business and i'm getting public services here just because i have a camera in my hand doesn't mean anything i have the freedom of press i'm an independent journalist right and if somebody would talk to me instead of trying to grab my phone and order me to leave a building they would know all these things that's why de-escalation is so important i'm sitting here talking to you yeah and that's why i appreciate you for doing that can i get your name and badge number yeah my cara mccara 218. thank you i don't exactly remember but it was like june 2002 okay ridiculous yeah see this see this camera right here this is a just like almost all public buildings you know federal state and local buildings they are heavily surveilled i don't know if you can see that here let me move my you can see that you can see this right here right here in the upper corner you got a surveillance camera now there's cameras all over the place they take issue with you filming them but they don't have a problem at all with them filming you that's another grave irony of this entire situation i mean it's public but i mean i'm not trying to i'm not trying to it is i don't i don't want to put anybody that doesn't probably wow that's insane it is insane it truly is in light of the i have no right to try and grab my phone you have no right i have the right to record it's there so i don't know what happened okay well that's yeah it's on it's on body camera it's on body camera right and it's well what if you were there what if you were there and what if a cop unprovoked came and tried to steal the camera then what would you do 218 badge 218 answer that question if you were there and one of your fellow cops tried to grab somebody else's property against their will what would you do what measures would you take to see that that person was brought to justice what if a person who wasn't a cop tried to grab my camera in front of you what would you do i would really like to know the answer these questions mr 218 on this camera right you tried to grab my phone not you when i say i meant general the police right i don't even remember his name at the moment but he tried to take my phone from me what authority does he have to do that that's what i said i wasn't there i don't know so i'd rather not speak okay that's why we're going to get a supervisor right awkward moments i'll be right back right yeah no problem he's going inside here i want a supervisor wow i'm going to skip ahead here sergeant yeah okay so and what was the other officer's name caleb caleb yeah thank you sorry to hang out with you until he comes or no that's fine i don't need no nothing's gonna happen but yeah no i'll wait no problem and then after i'm done talking to him i'll conduct whatever business i have left and then we'll be good sounds good all right um if that other female comes back i would just come get me yeah i'm just gonna ignore her i'm just gonna ignore her yeah i don't wanna i don't wanna deal with it honestly all right good morning all right my name is mike boyz i'm the sergeant here at pd what was your last name sir boy said boise nice to meet you sir you requested to speak with a supervisor correct sir okay yeah what do you want to talk to me about um officer kalith okay completely unhinged and out of control okay completely all right grab attempted to take my phone from me like when i say attempted grab my phone and i had to wrestle it out of his hands okay um ordered me to leave a public building while i'm conducting lawful business okay and um just completely unprofessional and and unaware of the freedom of the freedom of press that we have in this country i told him you know no de-escalation um technique whatsoever to try and figure out who i was what i was doing here just allowed an employee from the supervisor's office to put a battery in his back and like i said immediately i'm ordering you to leave this building right now didn't even ask who i was what i was doing no type of um you know prerequisite questions as to figure out what my purpose is this is our building this is the town building you need a permit to film again all things that a police officer i don't know if he's new i don't know you know if he's been here for 20 years i don't know but the point is is that a police officer should know they should be properly trained not to put your hands on on law abiding citizens let me see your id give me your id give me your id i said sir do you have reasonable article suspicion that i've committed a crime or i'm going to commit a crime i don't need that you know these things concern me sir these these behaviors by law enforcement who took an oath to uphold the constitution really concerned me and i want and they could they should concern everybody because what a lot of people don't think about is when that officer calif to set badge number 272 when calef reach for reyes's or long island audits camera what would he have done if there wasn't surveillance equipment in that hallway what would he have done if long island audits wasn't recording what if he didn't have a body cam on nothing was being recorded if they're going to be so bold as to step forward and grab the private property of somebody else without their will and against their consent what would they do if they if they thought that they weren't being recorded that's what's truly alarming file a formal complaint against this officer okay do you want to provide me with your id i can give you my name sure okay all right what's your first name sir my first name is sean s-e-a-n okay your last name reyes r-e-y-e-s you want to give me your date of birth no it's okay have a home address i'll give you my i'll give you my cell phone number so you can reach out cell phone number i'll give you my email as well sure what's your email long island audit at gmail.com um all right so right now you're telling me you want to file a formal complaint correct okay i'll get the paperwork for you um at this point do you want to tell me why you came to the building today well sure i mean it's not a secret you know i'm an independent journalist just like i told anybody else who who took the time to ask me i'm an independent journalist gathering content for a story doing some freedom of information act requests with a town clerk okay that's it and documenting my experience to disseminate to the public that's all peacefully no issues this is a public building these are public areas of the building all right so independent journalists right correct and you're gathering information correct as far as the layout of the building you know public records requests honestly it shouldn't matter it's just a public building you know but you know i understand you want information sure okay i'll be back shortly all right hello mr rest okay so i have a couple forms for you

questions for me today nope that's it okay and i asked to speak with uh sergeant yes okay thank you have a good day you too all right now here's another interaction which goes to the club hi ma'am how are you um can i speak to a supervisor here somebody in charge regarding regarding a complaint regarding um i don't know her name i think she didn't give it to me but a woman came out and uh was very rude um you know i wouldn't go as far to say unhinged you know yelling at me had had a police officer trying to take my camera from me i have freedom of press and i told no one even asked me what i was doing first they just said you can't film in here without a permit do you have five thousand dollars you know just escalated the situation i'm an independent journalist exercising my freedom of press right i don't need a permit which i tried to explain to her but again her behavior and the way she conducted herself was completely out of line so as a member of the public i wanted to speak to somebody and well she doesn't work for the police so there's a police officer who i'm going to file a complaint against too but she didn't she doesn't work for the police she works for the supervisor's office excuse me yes i am right now yeah yeah so yeah no she i saw her jackets at supervisor's office so that's why i'm here to try and to try and speak with i don't know who or what her name exactly was but because she wouldn't give it to me but um yeah when it's fun she said that she writes the complaints so i mean she writes the part she writes the she hands out the permit so whoever that is that's who she is okay why don't you go outside sure i'll wait no problem she's hiding in the back somewhere because she doesn't want to face the music that she was absolutely wrong about that and then here's another interaction with the gentleman who also doesn't like being recorded in public even though there's heavy surveillance in the building that he works in seven to you know five days a week possibly excuse me i don't have the phone hi how are you sir um just wanted to do a freedom of information act request uh sure do you have the um i don't have the form no okay go

audits complete video in the description and in the pin comment as well as all this person pertinent information with teresa kenny who's the boss of carmel riley and the badge number for officer calif and the orange what's it called the orange orangetown police department email address of the orangetown police department and the phone number let long island audits know what you thought of how he did i think he's very well spoken he's even keeled he's very calm he tries to de-escalate which is super important when you're talking to a power tripping badged uniformed armed law enforcer just to get them bring them down just a little bit so we can just have a conversation you're a human being i'm a human being i obviously pose you no threat i'm not a harm to you all i am is a man with a video camera let's have a rational discussion why is it that you're trying to grab and steal my property this woman said that he she wanted the footage erased or deleted or whatever her word choice was so there's this idea that these people who are public servants actually operate as masters and overlords and people who demand that you bow down and submit to them and that you have a five thousand dollar permit to do something you have a constitutional human right to do anyway and that's what government is good at government is good at taking away your rights and then selling them back to you at the highest bidder saying okay now you have my permission to do something that you had a right to do in the first place leave your thoughts about this for the world in the global thought police in the comments section below and i'll see you guys in the next video [Music]
