This man was simply filming in public when a plane close officer approached, demanded his ID, and then tried to snatch his phone. Knowing he'd done nothing wrong, he refused to comply. But when police spotted a perfectly legal pocketk knife, they escalated, calling it concealed and detaining him. Watch how he stands his ground, exposes their abuse of power, and forces them to walk away. >> Can I help you? >> I am allowed to film. I'm not doing anything illegal, am I? What's that? >> I am.

Do you have your ID or not? >> Yes. >> Okay. Do you have any other weapon? >> No, sir. >> I'm going to pat you down. Okay. >> No, I absolutely do not consent to any searches. I do not consent to any searches. Please don't touch my phone. Once again, after our illegal search, I was attempting to give it to you when you when you searched me and I dropped my wallet.
