An auditor was filming along his usual route past the rule of local businesses, doing exactly what the First Amendment allows. >> Just roll my camera, bro. Look at this. >> You just roll my camera. >> Then he crossed paths with a business owner and a cop who had clearly had enough of the camera. So, let's see how simply filming in a public place became enough for a tyrannical officer to escalate the situation. >> Do your thing. Do your thing. >> Do your thing. I was just asking you for your name. Do your thing. Don't die. >> Some officers don't just abuse their power. They keep escalating until someone ends up bleeding, arrested, or both. Today's cases show exactly what happens when a badge becomes an excuse for cruelty instead of accountability. What you're about to see will make you question who's really being protected here. Let's get started. >> Education education. >> How are you, Max? How are you? Give me a kiss too. GIVE ME A KISS. >> I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS >> WITH TONGUE AND EVERYTHING. Let's look inside. We'll talk inside. >> Talk inside. Yeah. >> You just came start videoing people. >> I said why are you videoing and you don't ask for permission? >> I have ALL RIGHT TOO. I'M MAKING A STORY. YOU CAN'T MAKE A STORY WITH SOMEBODY AND YOU DON'T ASK YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE story is about. >> And they being rude. >> So Anna, we we're we've been dealing with these guys all day today. They're going spot to spot >> on the sidewalk and just trying to get people to react in this manner. Okay. Oh, >> this is this is like that's what they wanted. Hello. >> The owner complained she felt uncomfortable being recorded without her permission and the officer immediately framed the whole thing as a game. These guys playing just to farm views online. Funny how a public servant sworn to protect everyone's constitutional rights spent his first breath in that shop coaching a business owner on dodging a camera instead of just letting the law speak for itself. But wait, this was just the beginning. >> They they do it on purpose to get views. >> To get the views, right? That's what it is that they're doing. I told you perfect. >> So So we have to play it cool here, right? That's why we ask you to come inside. Don't engage them. They're going to get something like that. You guys have to give us heads. >> YEAH, BUT YOU HAVE TO THAT'S WHY YOU HAVE TO CALL BECAUSE they're being so rude. >> No, you can't doing that for people who don't know what you're doing. Correct. Even if I don't FEEL >> COMFORTABLE. YEAH, >> BECAUSE this is a client. And then >> so it's all legal, right? There's laws everywhere. So where they're standing, as long as they stand on the sidewalk, technically they're on public property in a public view, right? >> They stand at my window inside my store. >> So So the only way to combat that, really, the only one simple way that we could think of is throwing something up on the windows or something like that if you guys don't want to be seen. I know it sounds crazy, right? But again, it's the game that they play. Well, okay. So, >> they cannot come in here >> because obviously this is a this is private property at that point. >> So, we go after this and we warn them. The warning in of itself is was what will keep them away. >> But once they step into it, which they won't because they know you guys have never seen this yet in all my years I've been in your but that's what these kids but that's so rude. And then I said to him, why are you videoing me? >> Who knows? Maybe tomorrow. YOU CAN'T TELL THAT I can do WHAT I WANT. >> I CAN'T DO THAT. >> He admitted outright that as long as the auditors stood on a sidewalk, they were on public property in public view, which is exactly the legal standard that makes filming from there completely lawful. No matter how uncomfortable it made anyone inside. That's right. But if you think this is the end because the officers finally said something reasonable, you'd be mistaken. >> We deal with it all the time, right? It's not just these two. We do it because they know that as cops that that's what gets the >> one thing I hate to see me on video people talking nonsense provoke you >> oh my god >> I know the only thing that they cannot they obviously they cannot touch you they they cannot stop you from moving from one place to the other >> here today I know we never seen these guys either and and they popped up out of the >> look look at him oh my god this is too much >> so so just be mindful they'll probably go in front of the >> Okay. >> So, you guys are >> they just ignore them. >> Absolutely. That's all cuz they're not going to come in here. That That's the They know that. >> You're not even scared of that. It's the video that they put out. I don't know what it's about. I don't want to hear people saying, "Look at look at what you're doing. I don't know what you're doing." >> So, so it's probably not you guys that they're after. It's more us because the moment we see our car coming, it's them doing this and following us. >> And then when we come out here, you're going to hear that they're going to start talking. >> So, it's the game that they play because that's what gets the views. But they're mostly out there. It's not you guys. >> Yeah, about you. >> It doesn't feel safe. No, >> I know. One thing, like I said to to Ann here, they're not going to they're not going to stop you from moving around. So, if you want to step outside and move to the next store, whatever it is, right? >> They're not going to touch you. That's for sure. Again, they know to how to play the game and they just try to do >> He confirmed they couldn't touch the auditors or stop them from moving between locations, which is basically him admitting on record that nothing illegal was happening outside his own patrol car. If nothing illegal is happening, what exactly was all this coaching and hand ringing actually for? We'll see soon, I guess. >> That's it. >> America is not the America we used to know. >> No, no, it's a different world up here. It's a different world. It's all that tech and TV nons and this I've never have. >> But at least don't be rude about it. No, don't be rude. What is that? And that's >> and I'm like, no, but you can't do this. You can't be telling people you can't I have all right to view me. YOU DON'T KNOW ME. I don't know what you're doing. So, I just want to confirm when I leave to go to my car, they're not going to touch me. >> Correct. >> No, they they know better for that. Again, they're just trying to provoke. >> Oh my god. This is crazy, though. >> You have to put up with your new >> I know. I know. I know, man. Let Let the city council know. >> I'm going to let the city council know. Of course. You have to put up with your new >> I know. I know. I know. >> I'm going to let the city council. Of course. Once outside, the auditor simply asks for a name for documentation purposes or request any officer on duty is required to honor since police officers are public servants who don't get to operate anonymously while performing their jobs. Instead of answering, things exploded into shouting and physical contact almost instantly with the auditor's gimbal getting knocked around in the chaos. >> Thank you very much. >> All right, guys. Just keep the phone on hand just in case, but we're always nearby just in case. Okay, guys. behind you. >> All right. Thank you. >> America. >> Can I have your name for documentation? >> Yo, I'm talking to you. >> Yo, where's your police? Where's your police? >> Sir, where's your police? >> You're not going to give me your name on your >> Get off the run. >> You want to slam them up? >> Yeah. You're not going to give me your name on your prison. >> Yo, your name. >> You just ruin my camera, bro. Look at this. >> You just ruin my gimbal. You just roll my gimbal, bro. Come here. Go ahead. Do your thing. Do your thing. >> Do your thing. I was just asking you for your name. Do your thing. Don't go. Don't go. >> That's my son. That's my son. Yo, give it to my son. What are you doing? >> YO. YO, YO, GIVE MY SON A CAMERA. YO, GIVE ME THE CAMERA. >> YO, I'M MY SON'S CAMERA. What are you doing right now? >> Call your sergeant, bro. >> The auditor kept insisting all he wanted was a name and badge number. The officer barked at him to stand on the sidewalk, apparently forgetting he was the one who had just left the sidewalk to confront him in the first place. >> Yo, give my son the camera. What are you doing? >> You going to stand up? What you doing? >> Stand on the sidewalk. >> Yo, give my son. Give him the camera, bro. >> No. >> No. >> Stand on the sidewalk. >> Yo, give him my camera, bro. Stay on the sidewalk. >> I was asking you for your name. You hear me? YOU RAN AWAY. YOU RAN AWAY. I WAS ASKING YOU FOR YOUR NAME AND YOU RAN AWAY AND HIT me with your car. >> All right. All right. >> Your name is all I needed, brother. Oh, you hear me for this call? >> You didn't. You wasn't involved. >> Who? >> You. >> Who wasn't involved? >> Did I talk to you? >> Who >> did I talk to you? >> Did you talk to who? >> Did I talk to you? >> Did you TALK TO ME? I TALKED TO YOU. I SPOKE TO YOU. >> IT DON'T MATTER. IT DON'T MATTER IF I SPEAK TO YOU. IF A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC SPEAKS TO YOU, IT DOESN'T MATTER. It doesn't matter. >> I was there for them. I wasn't there. >> You hear me? >> I was there for you. You're >> here for the people. FOR EVERYBODY. ANYBODY THAT NEEDS YOU. >> EVERYBODY THAT NEEDS YOU. I CALLED YOU, TOO. AND YOU RAN ME OVER. I CALLED YOU. >> YES, I DID. >> YOU DIDN'T. >> YES, I DID. >> I CALLED YOU, BRO. I CALLED YOU AND YOU RAN AWAY. GOT IN YOUR CAR AND SMASHED MY GAME WITH MY CAMERA. OKAY. >> AND IT'S ON VIDEO. >> SO, you got into the public street. >> Watch it. Watch it, bro. Watch it. Don't I'm not going nowhere, bro. >> Pedestrian. You got into >> Relax, bro. Relax, man. Relax. He was approaching you. >> I I WAS TALKING TO YOU, BRO. I NEEDED YOUR NAME AND YOUR BADGE NUMBER. I NEEDED YOUR NAME AND YOUR BADGE NUMBER. >> I WAS IN THE SIDEWALK. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO RUN AFTER YOU. >> SO, THE officers hit you with their vehicle. Then, because they were very angry you recorded it, they decide [music] to arrest you. Some things only make sense in their heads. What comes next is the officers trying to justify why they arrested these people. But no matter how hard they try, they can't erase what already happened. >> I was going to GO TO YOUR PRISON, SO THEN I ASKED YOU FOR I JUST WALKED IN. >> I ASKED YOU FOR THE ADDRESS. >> YOU COULD HAVE GOOGLED. >> I I COULD HAVE GOOGLED IT. YOU HEAR THIS, YOUR HONOR? I COULD HAVE GOOGLED THE ADDRESS AND HE DECIDED TO RUN ME OVER WITH THE CAR. >> SO, YOU THREW YOURSELF IN THE >> NO, YOU HIT ME WITH THE CAR. >> YOU HIT ME WITH THE CAR PURPOSELY, BRO. YOU SEE ME FROM THE CAR. WHY WOULD YOU HIT THE GAS? >> WHY WOULD YOU HIT THE GAS? >> WHY WOULD YOU RUN? >> YOU HEAR ME? CUZ I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT YOUR NAME AND YOUR INFORMATION AND I NEED TO find out what precinct you're on because you're refusing TO IDENTIFY YOURSELF. SO, MY NEXT STEP, >> this isn't New York City. >> IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE WE AT. I'M STILL MAKE OKAY. SO WHATEVER YOU ASK. SO WHAT YOU GOT HERE? >> THERE'S NO POLICE. >> SO WHAT YOU GOT HERE? >> Police station. >> YOU SHOULD HAVE STOPPED AND TOLD ME THAT BEFORE YOU RUN ME OVER WITH YOUR CAR. >> YOU HEAR ME? >> You could have Google. >> No, you're a public servant. You can provide your information. >> I don't have to. >> YOU DON'T HAVE TO. So you JUST PUT PEOPLE IN HANDCUFF and you shoot them and you run them over WITH YOUR CAR. THAT'S WHAT YOU DO. >> Shooting people. >> That's what you do. You're ready to shoot me. LOOK, HE'S BREAKING my arm >> journalist. All I'm doing is recording. You hear me? And you're like running into YOU HATER. YOU RAN ME OVER WITH YOUR CAR. >> YOU PUT NO, YOU RAN ME OVER, MAN. PREDICTABLE, MAN. >> YOU RAN ME OVER. >> OKAY. I will see you. I'm going to talk to you. I'm going to talk to you in court. Come on. >> Keep licking their boots. Keep licking their boots. >> You got arrested me for running me over. >> You got anything shoved? >> Are you arresting me for running me over? >> Do you have anything? >> ARE YOU ARRESTED FOR AFTER YOU RUN ME OVER? SOMEBODY NEEDS TO MAKE A REPORT. >> As the physical restraint continued, the auditor was heard in visible pain, complaining about how he was handled. And the response he got was a flat claim that it was all just protocol. Calling rough handling protocol doesn't make it protocol. That just means somebody's hoping nobody would ask too many questions about where that protocol is actually written down. >> My phone is asking for your supervisor, bro. >> Sir, >> you hear me? >> I need your supervisor. >> You hear me AND THEY LOCK ME UP? YO, they hit ME WITH THE CAR AND THEN they lock ME UP. >> YO, I'M NOT DOING NOTHING, BRO. Tightening up, bro. >> What you mean stop moving? >> You ran me over AND THEN YOU ARREST ME, BRO. THAT'S DIRTY AS HELL, [ __ ] >> The [ __ ] out of here. You call your supervis. >> So, so this guy after we we ignored him because we were going to leave. >> We ignored him because we were going to leave. >> He decides to run into the street and runs right in front of the car as we're moving. So, >> SO WHY YOU LEAVE? WHY YOU LEAVE, BRO? I WAS ASKING YOU QUESTIONS. >> DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING ELSE? >> HEY, STOP HOLDING MY DICK. STOP HOLDING MY BALLS. YO, STOP >> STOP HOLDING MY BALLS, [ __ ] >> STOP MOVING. >> STOP HOLDING MY BALLS. GO HOLD MY BALL. STOP MOVING. STOP BEING GAY. Stop being gay. >> NO. NO. HE HAS MY CRACK. >> His hand protocol. That's what you wanted, right? YOU'RE ABOUT TO COME RIGHT NOW. YOU'RE ABOUT TO COME. >> I'm going to do this. >> Do your thing. Do your thing. You I'm going to the precinct. So you can get me naked over there. OKAY. >> ALL RIGHT. So come and go TO THE PRIEST. NO. NO. TAKE ME TO the prison. All right. So the [ __ ] out of here. I'm not opening my leg, [ __ ] You open your [ __ ] legs. Look at him. Look. Look at this. Look at me SQUE MY >> DON'T SQUEEZE MY TIC. LOOK AT THIS [ __ ] BRO. >> I'm not in the car, [ __ ] >> My head. You want to jump? >> You want to chop me, too? >> All right. >> I'm not in blocking nobody. I'm not blocking nobody traffic. WHERE'S THE TRAFFIC? TELL ME WHERE the traffic's going to shoot you, bro. BACK UP. YO, Z, BACK UP BEFORE HE SHOOTS YOU, BRO. BACK OFF. WHAT THE REASON? STOP. WHAT? [ __ ] >> there's a way to turn this door off. I don't know how to [ __ ] >> The officer threw out a threat to shoot if the auditor didn't back up. A wildly disproportionate escalation over a man who moments earlier had just been asking for a name. And if you think these officers couldn't sink any lower, just wait until you see how they behaved once they got to the station. >> Mama, all I need was my bro. I'm just a jerk. I'm just a jerk. >> What's your name on Tik Tok? >> Eli the people's guy. >> There you go. >> Look at me on YouTube. >> Subscribers on YouTube. On Tik Tok. >> I got I got a bounce. >> You do what you do. You were squeezing my balls before, right? So keep squeezing them. >> I ain't squeezing. >> Keep squeezing my balls, man. It's on camera. Go ahead. Do your thing. Do your thing. You [ __ ] >> Go ahead. And you put your fingers in my booty, too. You hear me? You going to pay for that. >> Don't do that. So he get to a call. >> I was asking for his name. >> Where's your son? >> Hold on. He He's coming. So wait for him. He's coming. So I was asking for his name. Yo, listen. I was asking for his name. >> Exactly. He ran. He got in the car. So I'm like, "Yo, let me get AT LEAST YOUR SERGEANT cuz he's not asking me his name." So I got IN FRONT OF THE CAR, RIGHT? So get the plane number OF THE VEHICLE. THEY TOOK OFF AND RAN ME OVER AND THEN GOT OFF THE CAR AND ARRESTED ME. >> THEY RAN YOU OVER? >> YES, SIR. I need an ambulance. My shoulders. Funny how officers love citing procedure for everything except the one procedure that actually exists. The one limiting where their hands are allowed to go during a patown. Guess that manual gets real thin when it's inconvenient. Isn't that something officers are supposed to learn during their months of training? >> Everything's already. [snorts] >> So now let's make up the charges. Let's see how many judging. >> Yeah. He don't even know how to take a belt. >> Let the officer do his thing. And >> he's doing his thing. I'm going handle. I'm going handle one step at a time. All right. >> I got you. I got you. >> Check it out. >> I got you. >> Oh, first amendment, though. >> Yeah, first amendment. I just my right to record in public places. They don't like it. And they ran me over with the vehicle, bro. They ran me over, man. I've never had this one done to me before, bro. >> Yeah. Roll me over with the vehicle. Come on, my bro. I don't know, my [ __ ] You, too. You squeezing my nipples over there and squeezing my nipple, bro. Stop playing. Stop playing. Everything's on video, bro. Everything's on video. It's incredible to you, but that's what they do. You hear me? >> And I got cameras and everybody got cameras to show you what your partners do. >> So, what made you start this initiative? Going out there and speaking to >> I'm with my son. I'm with my son. I'm with my son. I'm touring around this town. I never been in this town. No, bro. >> Where you from? Yoners. >> Whereas you from >> I'm from the Bronx. Where you from? >> I'm a bro. You got my day. You got everything. >> I don't got anything. ALL RIGHT. SO, ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS YOUR PEEP is there. >> Oh, look for me on YouTube. Look for me on T. Whatever you want. >> Okay. >> All right. >> I don't write you. Got to come off. >> Do your thing, my [ __ ] I'm a handle. >> At this point, the department owes him a name, an apology, and possibly a new camera because apparently that's the exchange rate for identifying yourself around here. And after nearly an hour of this encounter, they still refused to give him their badge numbers. Makes you wonder if they knew just how far they had gone and what was coming next, which is why they tried so hard to hide them. >> What you got to do? Keep violating my right. Keep keep going. Do your thing. >> Your watch got to come off. >> Everything. Yeah, I know the process. Do your thing. Do your thing. Cuz the body comes on, right? Yo, hit that like button and subscribe. YOU NEVER SEEN THIS ONE. OW. AH. MY SHOULDER. AH. AH. YO, my [ __ ] WHY YOU DOING IT like >> Where you from, by the way? Okay. >> Yo, just ask your picture. >> WHO AM I? WHO AM I GOING TO TALK TO, BRO? I CAN'T TURN AROUND LIKE THIS, BRO. WHAT [laughter] the >> Yo, he a rookie, bro. Right. He's a Ruby, bro. The Steelers. >> All I needed was your name, brother. And I say you ran away from me and then you ran me over. >> He kept bringing up the First Amendment like it still means something to these guys, which at this point feels almost naive. Bless him. Meanwhile, he's describing unwanted contact during a search and getting absolutely nothing back except the sound of gear being unclipped. Nothing says respecting constitutional rights quite like silently continuing an arrest while someone lists off exactly how you violated them. >> You take it. You keep doing your job. You hear me? Do what you got to do, man. Keep violating my rights. You hear me? Every single move you make is going to be $100,000. Keep going. Go ahead. Do your thing. You heard it, Ste. You met me today. Today's the last time you can do it to somebody in your life. Okay. Um, you got to go down to one. Please take the jacket. >> Keep doing your job, my G. I'm not doing nothing. My shoulder hurts. I need an ambulance. I can't move my hand. I just told you you broke my shoulder with the part. >> I can't move my hand. >> You move the well enough. >> What? >> Take your shoulder. Take >> I need an ambulance. I can't move my shoulder. I can't I can't move my shoulder. Look, it's on camera with the camera. YOU'RE A PROSECUTION. I CAN'T MOVE MY SHOULDER DUE to the accident. NOW HE WANTS me to do what? >> Take it off. >> And I'm serious, bro. You think I'm playing? >> Yeah. WATCH. WATCH. LEGIT. LEGIT AND A HALF. WATCH THIS. LOOK AT MY BONES. LOOK AT MY BONES. I SWEAR TO YOU, MY BONES STICKING OUT. >> TAKE IT DOWN. >> I can't. Come on. >> Right when you think this couldn't get any worse, the man says he can't move his shoulder. The response is basically keep going one arm at a time. Of course, the first priority should be providing medical assistance to anyone who's been arrested. But these officers decide to play doctor, too. And assume he was faking it. Honestly, they can't even do their own job properly. So why do they think they can do someone else's? >> I can't I can't I can't move my shoulder. I can't move my SHOULDERS DUE TO THE ACCIDENT that's on video. I can't move my shoulder. I can't take it over. I have to do one side, right? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. So do the other one. I can't do no more. I can't do no more, bro. I can't do nothing. You're not working with me. >> Do whatever. I'm not working with you. I WILL NEVER WORK WITH YOU. YOU'RE A DIRTY COP. YOU'RE A DIRTY COP. YOU'RE THE DIRTIEST COP IN THIS. ONE MORE TIME. >> DO WHATEVER YOU WANT. BEAT ME UP. SHOOT ME. >> YEAH, MAN. I can't I can't move. >> Would you Would you work with No, I'm not playing. I'm playing. Would you work with 12 other officers? >> Got you. You got >> No, that's what you got to do. We're trying to We're trying to We're trying to get to the bottom. >> Thank you. Thank you, man. I got you. I got you. >> We're not trying to give nobody a hard time. >> God bless you. God bless you, bro. God bless you. >> That they have to do. That's crazy. We don't need [laughter] >> calling someone the dirtiest cop in the precinct is a bold claim until you remember this is the same guy who allegedly ran him [music] over and is currently removing his jacket sleeve by sleeve while he winces in pain. The officer's defense was that they were just trying to get to the bottom of things which is fascinating way to describe a process that started with a bumper and ended with a body cam catching every second of it. >> You got a t-shirt underneath that. So, uh, you got to take off the earrings as well. You mind taking that off by yourself or you want >> I can do one hand. Okay. >> All right. >> Probably. I don't know. >> All right. We'll give it a try. >> I don't need my right hand. >> You got like an envelope. >> You want No, you want the envelope just in case. We'll throw it in there. [clears throat] Is it recording or when it's on the table when that comes? >> And um for the body guns, by now my reality TV show must be over. So I'm really wishing the best for the winner. >> The medics offered a trip to the hospital since the dislocated joint isn't something anyone pops back into place on the sidewalk. But just remember, none of this ever had to happen. The officer simply decided to play around with their authority instead. >> Uh it's up to you. Yeah, if you want to go. >> Do you even want to see the shower? Well, I can't put it back into place. >> Oh. So, who are you? >> We're taking you to the hospital to get it put back in place. >> Okay. >> I just got to ask. You got to give him to the hospital. >> No problem. >> All right. >> Thank you. >> What happened? Did you fall? >> You don't have nothing to He hit me. He ran me over with his car with the car. You don't have nothing to roll my shoulder. >> We have in the side. >> Okay. Thank you. I'm still in >> He brought up wanting to call his lawyer. a completely reasonable request for someone being hauled into a hospital in custody after a collision with a marked patrol car. Instead of a straight yes or no, he got a redirect straight to the ambulance, which is a clever way to delay [music] a phone call without technically denying it. If everything here was as clean as the department wants it to look, a 5-minute call shouldn't have been this complicated. >> You ran me over. >> Yeah, but I'm not going to call my lawyer. I'm >> still not going to give you a call, right? You're going to the hospital. >> Okay. So, you my lawyer at least some other to the hospital, bro. >> I'm coming with you. You're with me. >> Medics checked his fingers for feeling and pressed around the injury site while he winced through each question, confirming pain right where you'd expect from a joint that had just been forced out of place. It's kind of the world we live in, guys, where you can end up in jail just for filming in a public place where you had every right to be. So, the next time you go for a walk, watch out for the police. Yo. >> Hey. Yo, what up, ZACK? >> I'M LIVE. YO. YO, MAKE SURE TO HIT THE FINAL, BRO. STOP PLAYING WITH HIM. >> YES. And right here, he's the driver. He rolled ME OVER WITH HIS CAR AND HE BROKE MY SHOULDERS. AND IS THE DRIVER. STE IS THE HELPER. HE RAN ME OVER WITH HIS CAR AND THEN HE ARRESTED ME. I I STOOD IN FRONT OF HIS CAR AND HE HIT THE GUY. That's your own life. Then came the real gem of the segment. Someone accusing him of practicing medicine without a license and violating HIPPA simply for pointing out the obvious. That he clearly wasn't a doctor and never claimed to be one. Citing a federal healthcare privacy law against a guy just asking if someone hit their head is kind of the legal [music] reach that deserves its own blubber reel. If that's the best defense available, this case really isn't going the way anyone in uniform was hoping. Yeah. >> You want to go your fingers? >> Yeah. The pain is just like on the top. >> You feel okay? >> Yeah. There. There. There. >> 39. >> There. There's the pain. >> I'll be right on 109. >> You said no. >> Oh lord. This is crazy, bro. This should only happen to >> point blank. He asked why the officer simply never gave his name when asked and got nothing back in silence, followed by an oddly specific denial about never even wanting to be close enough to be asked. That kind of contradiction doesn't hold up well against a camera that recorded the entire chase from start to finish. Writing his name. So when I got in front to record his play, he hit the gas. >> Okay. >> And he's standing right next to you. >> No, but because you refused to, bro, you can't be questioning him here too either, bro. Question on camera. No, no questions for you. >> All right. All right. All right. >> No questions for you. >> Exactly. You're not no doctor, bro. You violated hippo law as you speak. Everybody, >> I'm not a doctor. I didn't say I was. >> All right. That's another violation for for the lawsuit. Hippo law. >> Did you hit your head or anything or just >> I only have pain on my shoulder. I don't know if I hit my head. >> You said if I got in front of the car, bro. So what, man? What is wrong with you? You was parked, bro. Not even parked, man. You just run people over. They're next to your car. That's how you do it. The man was treated by paramedics for a dislocated shoulder at the scene before being transported to the hospital in custody, all while continuing to document the encounter. He was eventually released without being informed of any formal charge and his camera was held by the department pending an unspecified investigation while his other property was returned to him. And that brings us to our [music] next case for today. A man out filming police activity found himself standing near the edge of the road when an officer decided his [music] choice of a standing spot was suddenly a matter of public safety. And when officers start making excuses up from the very beginning to justify detaining you, it's pretty clear things aren't going to end well. How's it going today? >> Good. How are you? Out of the road. >> I'm going around here. You don't have to tell me what to do, but I'm I'm traveling just fine. >> You're in the middle of the road. I >> Well, you can't tell. You can't just tell people what to do. I say, you know, you know, come on. No, >> it's not a sidewalk. You need to get out of the road. I'm giving you a command to get on a sidewalk. >> Is it a legal command for real? >> Not a sidewalk. You are standing in the middle of the road in violation of >> This is not the middle of the road. This is There's a sidewalk right here. You don't see this as a >> sidewalk right here. If you want to record it, I'll give you one more chance since you're recording me. >> But name and badge number. Name and badge number. Name and badge number. >> Yeah. I want I I want I want a um business card. Business card. >> Business card. >> Someone's yard. That's not a sidewalk. >> Business card, buddy. >> Sidewalk. >> Oh, there's a sidewalk, bud. >> Absolutely. Go find a sidewalk. I'm recording, too. All right. Look, there's a sidewalk right here. That's a sidewalk right there. No. Come on. Come on. Come on. >> Come on, bud. You can't just pull me over. You can't just talk stop me. >> Come on, man. I'm asking questions. That's it. Right from the start, the officer ordered him out of the road, insisting he was standing in the middle of traffic when the footage clearly showed a sidewalk sitting just a few feet away. The man refused to budge without getting a name and badge number first, which is a completely reasonable [music] thing to ask for any police interaction. But here, these questions counted as an act of defiance. >> Come on, guy. That's an unlawful That is an unlawful order you want to start. You want to try giving? Stop it. Stop it. Can I get Let me give me a badge. >> Give me a business card. >> I just told you my name and badge number. I don't have a business card. >> Okay. What's name? What's your name and badge number? Name and badge number out here in the street. Thank you very much. >> I could be out in the street, buddy. Come on, man. Don't Come on, man. You're going to violate people's rights like that. I could be out on the street. I If if I have to walk across the street, what am I going to do? >> I'm not violating your rights. >> Yes, you are. I'm That's why I come out here cuz you guys violate people's rights. >> I ask I come out here. >> We talk. I am giving you opportunities to comply. >> You're wanting to give >> If I wanted to violate your rights, >> you're wanting to give unlawful orders. You're wanting to give unlawful orders. >> It is illegal to stand in the middle. >> It's not illegal. I could cross the street is >> pull it up. Show me the law. Show me the law code. >> Show me the law code. >> Listen to my lawful. >> Show me the law code. >> What happens? Okay. >> Show me the law code under duress. I'm not going to go in the road under duress because look, you're going to arrest me. Then Lieutenant Decker entered the picture. Someone the man recognized from a previous encounter, proving this wasn't his first rodeo [music] standing up to this exact apartment. He brought up the plain view doctrine, correctly noting that anything visible from public spaces, fair came to record, no expectation of privacy required. The officer tried to steer the conversation elsewhere instead of engaging with the actual legal point. [music] And that alone tells you who is losing this argument. >> That's that's the thing we talk about that you guys all you guys do is want to push people around. Look at you. >> Stay down. Stay where? Stay there. Stay there. >> Perfect. >> See what you're doing. You don't see what you do. Violating people's rights. >> I'm not going to do with it. Sorry. >> That's exactly what you're doing, bud. Isn't it? All I'm here is asking for questions and you guys are going to sit there and want to violate somebody's rights. That's in public. I got my rights to grieve to the government. Right. Right. Is it my my first amendment? Right. Do you know the first Hey, I can you can say however you want to say it. You can say it's harassment. You can say whatever as long as it's not an action, then I ain't doing nothing >> out there on the sidewalk. But if you're out here in the middle of the street, >> bro, if I go over here and I have to cross the street cuz I got to go home or something. >> Crosswalk. >> This is a crosswalk. Hey, you know, they don't they ain't no crosswalk, but come on. Can I get your uh business card name? >> Who I am? You've had one before. >> Name and badge number then. Say it. Come on, man. >> As the exchange dragged on, the man reminded everyone present that recording in public isn't harassment. It's a protected [music] activity under the First Amendment. It's something these officers seem determined to treat as a personal insult instead. He had warned him that he'd post the footage for the world to see rather than address a single legal point raised. The response was a vague threat about a protection order. >> And what's your name and number? >> Why are you out here doing this? >> Because you guys violate people's rights. That's it. This like what this guy's want to do. >> Give me an example. >> Like right now he's trying to push me off the road just because I'm in the He's saying he's going to arrest me cuz I go on the road. >> Why are you recording his house? >> Right. You going to arrest me cuz I go on the road? >> Stop. You're not saying >> Yeah. You said that. You said if I go out on the road, you're going to arrest me. Is that Is that illegal? >> Reasonable right now. What are you doing? >> I'm saying I come out here because I test you guys for you guys to violate people's rights. And that's what you guys the first privacy. >> I'm in public. I can record whatever I see conversation. You know what doctrine is? You know what the plain view doctrine is? Right. Right. You know what that is? Okay. Then then I got the first amendment. >> What's that person's expectation of privacy? >> They don't got no expectation of privacy. You don't they don't have expectation of privacy in public. As long as I'm in public, >> I try to get along with you, but you're being ridiculous and you're being so post your video. >> I'm going to show how you guys are ridiculous. He made it clear that without a committed crime, there was no legal basis to demand identification, which happens to be exactly how the Fourth Amendment protections against unreasonable searches and seizures are supposed to work. Now, seriously, can someone remind these officers that at the start of their careers, [music] they swore an oath to protect the constitutional rights of the people? do unlawful orders to people >> information. You should get probably get a protection order against you. This is not safe. >> Whatever. >> You're going to get violated. >> No, I ain't get nothing. You guys ain't get you can't get nothing from you. I haven't done nothing. >> What's the time right now? >> If I have no If I have not If I have not committed a crime, >> you can't ask for ID or nothing. There's no reason for >> then that point you're violating my rights. My Fourth Amendment. What's the Fourth Amendment right? >> What's a Fourth Amendment right? >> You should know. >> Yeah. My fourth amendment right is my it's my privacy to my legal privacy >> of privacy for you going over to someone's fence. >> I'm I'm not going over their fence. I'm right here in public. >> Oh well, there's no expectation. Plain view doctrine. Look it up. >> Plain view doctrine. I can if I can see it from public, I can record it. >> You are being unreasonable. >> You're being unreasonable. You You're just want to have be on a high horse. That's it. >> Post this video for your two fans. >> I'm telling you that you guys violate people rights like you're going to try to do right now. >> Let me talk. you just want to talk over for you >> cuz all you want to do is violate people's rights, right? >> Suddenly, the tone shifted entirely with an officer declaring him [music] trespassed from the address if he ever returned, despite him standing on a public sidewalk the whole time. He calmly clarified [music] that walking up and down a public street isn't trespassing, no matter how uncomfortable it makes anybody standing nearby. It's sad these officers don't seem to know this, and ordinary citizens have to remind them. >> You've been arrested doing this. >> Don't worry about how many times I got arrested. Zero. >> Yeah. >> Right. We have violated your rights zero times. >> No. No. No. You don't know anything then. >> How many times have you been arrested for doing this? >> More than what you think, buddy. >> Zero. >> More than what you think, buddy. >> So, >> more than what you think. Just for violating my rights. Just for violating my right. Traveling, walking just and and saying, "Oh, if you don't step right there, you you're not in public." When the public says, >> "I'm talking. You're trespassing." >> Do you understand that? I have to yell because I can't even hear myself think cuz you won't shut up. You are trespassed from this address. If you come back from this address again, you will go to jail. >> I can walk up and down all the street the whole time I want. As long as I'm not on their property, buddy. So, don't go there. Don't get it twisted. >> I can walk up and down this sidewalk. I can walk up and down the street. See how you guys are doing? See how you are pushing out your unlawful orders? Do you see that, Sergeant? A supervising sergeant showed up and after some back and forth told him he was free to go, which raises the obvious question of why he was ever detained in the first place if there was nothing to detain him for. The man pushed the [music] sergeant to actually train his officers on constitutional rights instead of handing out unlawful orders like candy. Okay, but then who's going to educate him? >> Sergeant, right? >> Are you not a sergeant? >> So, you are free to go. >> What's your What's your name? Sergeant Sergeant Andrews. Okay. Then you should teach your officers let's not violate people's rights and give unlawful orders to go. >> Then tell them not to give unlawful orders. Okay. Remember that. >> I don't have to tell him anything. >> You're the sergeant. You're the one that's supposed to be in charge of these guys. >> Guess what? My boss is here. So you are free to go. >> Wow. Who? >> But they still they still don't you know put up the right to put up for you guys to learn the constitution. You guys don't learn the constitution. >> In her home is violating your rights somehow. >> All I did was pass by and say, "Oh, look. I I I seen a car." I was like wondering what cop lives here. What what violator lives here? That's it. >> Let's go. Keep recording. Let's go to the house. Let's show everyone where you live. >> Oh, people know where I live. >> Give them your license plates. >> People know where I live. Don't worry about it. >> Where is that? What's your address? >> Don't worry about it. >> Oh, so you don't want to share. So, you're all about all about freedom of information. >> He pointed out the irony of officers demanding his address while refusing to share anything about themselves. And just a reminder, while they're on duty, police officers are public servants, which pretty much means they don't get to hide their identities from the public and are required to >> [music] >> identify themselves. I mean, if they did everything right, what's with the secrecy? >> You know what the first amendment is, right? You know what? What's the third and fourth amendment? You know those? You know any of them? Be safe. Happy holidays. Whatever holiday you celebrate, I hope it's a wonderful one. Have a happy. All right. Goodbye. >> You guys are dismissed. You guys go do your job. You guys do your job and you guys go. Let's stop violating people's rights. Remember that. All right. It is. Yeah. Christmas coming up. >> So, let people know, hey, this and this is that. >> Get out of the street, please. >> Oh, get out of the street, please. Oh, get out of the street. Look at this [ __ ] you guys. Look at unlawful orders. Shut the [ __ ] up, man. >> You guys are [ __ ] idiots, man. [ __ ] [ __ ] Get out of the street. That's what they do, peeps. That's why I come out here. To show how effed up they are. We want to violate people's rights constantly. >> The officers walked away and told the man he was free to go, only to get offended a few minutes later because he kept talking. So now, apparently free speech was a problem, too. Luckily for us, officers with such fragile self-control [music] fall for provocations like this easily. >> That's not appropriate for your younger viewers. You shouldn't curse on them. >> Disney Plus, >> worry about about what we be doing, man. >> Disney Plus is never going to pick you up when you talk like that. Don't worry about what we be doing, man. Worry about learning how to, you know, protect our people. Protect the people's rights. You guys took an oath to protect our rights. >> Give me an example where we didn't. >> Not not today. >> Well, any other time you ask all you guys ever do cuz the first thing you guys do is pull up on people. >> I just asked you. >> The first thing you guys do is pull up on people and say, "Hey, ID. My people." >> When you pull people over, anybody. >> Everybody is my people. >> When you pull people over, that's the first thing you guys do, man. Hey, ID. ID. Oh, you you can't tell them, "Hey, you got a light out. You can't tell them that you got this and that." just want to talk, right? You can't tell them that, right? You can't converge. No, it's a it's a it's a right. >> No, it's not. >> Yeah. >> It's not a privilege. It's it's it's our god-given right to travel in amongst this free country. A driver is one that works. >> He compared demands for identification papers to something out of an authoritarian playbook. Exaggerated, sure, but rooted in real frustration about officers treating every interaction as automatic ID checks, regardless of whether a crime occurred. The officers had no legal right to demand anything since no crime had been committed. Now the backup officer would have to accept that, too. >> Look that up. You guys don't understand those rights. You guys don't You guys don't understand those rights. >> No, you don't understand. You're talking. You're being unreasonable. >> You're being unreasonable. You guys learn the Constitution. Learn the Constitution. Honor your oath. Protect our rights instead of taking our rights. That's why I'm I'm I'm telling you constantly what I'm telling all the officers. Learn the the constitutional rights. You took an oath to protect our rights and that's the first thing you do. >> You're going to keep talking. That's the first thing you do, right? Talk like a human being cuz I've been trying to do that the whole time and you're being ridiculous. >> Is it not what you guys do? Okay. You guys can't pull over somebody and say, "Hey, your lights out." Okay, be on your way. You're serving and protect. You guys don't do that, right? That >> What are you talking about? >> When you pull somebody over, bro, why can't you guys get it through your thick skull? >> Mental health issues. Obviously, >> you guys do cuz you guys don't understand. If you guys don't understand him, I wish we >> You guys don't understand that. You guys are thickheaded. You guys don't understand it. That's the first thing you guys do. >> Makes you wonder how many other departments would deploy this many officers over a guy standing on a public sidewalk with a phone. If this really was [music] about safety, the math on manpower here just doesn't add up at all. So, all that's left is to conclude that these officers just enjoy wasting time, don't they? You got to light it out. You know, >> you went around the corner too quick, you know, slow it down, you know, and that's it. Be on your way. Serve and protect. But the first thing you guys do is Nazi Nazi papers papers. Nazi. Nazi. Nazi. I want my papers. I need them now. You can't have You can't go nowhere unless you have your papers. That's how you guys do it. Huh? >> You are being ridiculous. >> Well, you're the one that's sitting here arguing, not understanding where I'm coming from. >> Stand out of that driveway in case someone wants to come home and you're standing. >> Oh, because you guys really give a lot of people room to move in. Come on, guys. You guys always talking crap about everything. Here goes another man. >> Hi, sir. >> How's it going? >> This is AK Audit. >> Can I get a name badge number real quick? >> Oh, yes. We met before I met you in August. How are you doing? >> How's it going? >> Doing all right. name bad just because of me, you know, out here standing up for my rights and making sure we're not being overstepped with the boundaries, hoping you guys can get retrained on your constitution. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? >> Another problem with this whole case is that even after the sergeant and other supervisors showed up, none of them seemed interested in calming down the officers or telling them that people are allowed to do whatever they want on public property as long as they're [music] not breaking the law. So, how can we expect these officers to learn from their mistakes when no one's willing to teach them that they were wrong? >> Just because of a one person and doing nothing criminal and you seem to have >> ain't no crime being committed and you guys are here being, you know, >> there's not even [laughter] more on him and his channel. >> You guys are unbelievable. Just learn how to It's like I say, you know, it's not about, you know, defunding. It's about redirect redirecting your funding to retraining. You know what I mean? retraining to honor your oath. To honor your oath department in the state of Washington, >> you guys don't honor your oath, though. Everybody, all officers don't honor their oath. They don't. They don't. That's the first thing. Like I said, that's the first thing. That's the first That's the first thing, like I said. That's the first thing you guys do. And you guys throw it out there by saying, >> "Stop. Stop. Give me an example." >> I gave you plenty of examples. You still don't take it. >> Give a single one. Give me >> What do you mean? You pull somebody over and you have to have a light out. What? What do you do? >> Give me the officer's name and badge number. >> No. What do you do? What do you do when you pull somebody over? >> Educate people. I hope I'm educating you. What do you guys do when you pull somebody over? >> He then broke down the public easement running from the sidewalk to the light pole, explaining that officers kept mistaking the edge of the sidewalk for a property line that doesn't actually exist in that spot. That's a detail most officers clearly never learned. Yet, they're the ones enforcing [music] where citizens are and aren't allowed to stand. If the people writing the tickets don't understand basic municipal easement laws, who exactly is supposed to be educating who here? >> So, they're safe on the road. >> Okay, you tell them. Okay, your lights out. Now give me your license and insurance and all that, right? >> Yeah. >> Why do you need all that when this is free to travel? >> Identify the driver. >> YOU DON'T NEED TO identify the driver. We got we got constitutional rights. Our fourth amendment. You know what the fourth amendment is? >> You don't even understand the reason. >> Do you know what the fourth amendment is? >> Yes, sir. >> That you took an oath to to swore an o to. What is it? >> How is that an unlawful search and seizure ask for someone's identification? >> Cuz you're asking for their ID. You're asking for their ID when they don't need to give you ID unless they have committed a crime. Right. >> I need you to give this officer your information. You don't need, you know, you ain't giving my permission. What's wrong with you guys? No, >> because you're harassing people. >> Too bad. See, that's what you guys are doing right now. Taking my information unconstitutionally. >> We don't need to tell you. We have all this information. >> Then take it like that cuz it's crap. What you guys going to try to do? I want to do a >> statement of why you were here and what you were doing. >> Like I said, that's all I was going to ask. Who lived here? What tyrant live here? Because I was just going to educate them on the Constitution just like I'm trying to do that. And that's it. >> And they asked you to leave and you wouldn't leave. >> Hey, I'm in public and that's it. >> Did So they asked you to leave and you wouldn't leave? >> I'm in public. >> Did you Did they ask you to leave? If I'm in public, they could tell me to do whatever. If I'm in public, they can't tell me. They can't tell me to leave if I'm in public. Sorry. >> Would you like to give a statement of this office? >> No. That's all I'm saying. >> Why not? >> Because we don't I don't need I I gave everything to you guys. I told you guys what you guys need. >> Okay. Well, luckily you record everything so we can pull that. So, I appreciate that much on YouTube cuz you >> just learn not to protect people. I mean, to protect people's rights, not take their rights right away. Even though it was already obvious by this point that the man wasn't going to give up his rights, not a single officer seemed to know when to stop. So they tried one last time asking him for ID again, which unfortunately for them they still weren't going to get. What they were about to get instead was a humiliating moment that would soon send them on a walk of shame. This right here, cuz this is what you you guys don't understand that you guys >> followers do not help people. Like I said, you guys you guys don't you guys use the policies to to ent trap people to say, "Hey, no, it's the law because it's, you know, Washington law says that no matter what, you need ID, >> right? >> That's messed up, right? >> When we got constitutional rights to our protection, right? >> This is what you want. I know you get off on this attention." >> No, I I I get off on making sure that people learn their rights, learn what the [ __ ] they need to say to people. >> Listen to me. If you continue to harass people, you will be charged or arrested. >> Look, harassment harassment is an action. Harassment is an action. >> Anything else? >> Can I get a name badge number? >> Yeah. I'm officer guards of Pasco Police Department. Okay. All right. May I ask why why you were here initially? >> I mean 160. >> No, that's good. You have a good day, sir. >> Okay. You don't want to tell me why you were here? >> No arrest was made. no citation issued and no officer at the scene ever gave them a clear reason for the initial order to leave the roadway. Of course, that probably doesn't mean they'll calm down. If anything, they'll likely just find the next person to target so they can repair the ego this man shattered. And speaking of bruised egos, let's move on to the next case where officers apparently got bored during the night shift. A homeless man in Minneapolis had been setting up a small tent on the same stretch of public sidewalk for over a year without a single officer saying anything about it. On this particular night, that routine came [music] to abrupt halt when the patrol car pulled up and an officer decided tonight was finally the night to enforce a rule that had been ignored for [music] months. >> Sir, you don't know. >> All right. So, we're not doing this. >> Can't set up tents. It's against city ordinance. You got some ID on you? >> I have no ID. What's going on? Why you >> ID? Why you acting like I'm doing something wrong? >> You are doing something wrong. You can't set up a shelter on a public sidewalk. It's against city ordinance. You're going to get cited for it. Do you have ID? >> I'm going to get cited for >> That's correct. You have ID. >> What? I'm going to get cited for >> I told you for violating a city ordinance. >> How did I violate it? Sir, >> you're setting up a tent on a public sidewalk, setting up shelter. You can't do that. >> All right, but sir, I was doing this all last year. None of y'all said nothing to me. A whole bunch of y >> forcing it today, sir. Do you have >> You're enforcing it today. Is it What's your name? Jay McDonald. >> All right. Jay McDonald 1044. With gratitude and respect for your service to and for the community, I hear back. Accept your oath as an open. Right off the bat, the officer demanded identification before even trying to explain what kind of law had supposedly been broken, treating the man trying to stay dry as some kind of emergency threat. When he did finally explain, citing a city ordinance against setting up a shelter on a sidewalk, the man pointed out he had done this exact same thing all last year without [music] a single word from anyone wearing a badge. >> Offer to enter into a private binding contract with me to secure my rights and liberties. Okay. Now, what do you say you want, sir? >> I don't remember your name. What's your name? >> What do you said you want, sir? >> Your name? >> All right. You want the ID, sir? >> Uh, if you have an ID, that's cool. >> Yeah, I'll give you the ID. This dude putting on his glove getting all extra fake aggressive for what? I don't know. And, uh, I just accepted your oath. That's a open offer. I hope you remember article six, y'all. >> That's great. >> All right. So, uh, any violation of my I am recording, too. >> Yeah, sure. We I tell you what, just give him your name. >> I'm giving him my ID. I'm not spelling nothing. I'm giving him my ID. That's what ID is for. So, you're not going to tell me how to do this? >> All right. Well, let's go, daddy. >> That's what we going to do. Don't try to intimidate me or none of that stupid [ __ ] >> Let's go. >> All right. We going. It's a part of harassment, man. This the same [ __ ] from the other night that came with the young guy. Dude, I'm getting my ID. Don't Don't hurt me, man. I'm getting my ID. I'm getting my ID. You You're You're intentionally trying to escalate the situation. You You're intentionally trying to escalate the situation so you can have a falsified reason to arrest me. I'm getting my ID as you can see me getting my ID. That's where he's trying to escalate the situation intentionally. That's his problem. >> As he calmly [music] kept retrieving his ID, he flipped the script on the officer, pointing out that getting puffed up and getting aggressive over paperwork issues is exactly how you manufacture a reason to arrest someone who was already complying. Here's the thing. The man wasn't resisting and was [music] actively pulling out his identification. Where exactly was the justification for the tone that followed? He's trying to escalate. You're trying to escalate, not deescalate. >> I am deescalating. I'm getting my ID. You're not going to get mad because you're mad and try to abuse your powers on me. I'm recording. That's what you're doing. >> All right. All right, my [ __ ] You could be a criminal if you want to. You're under oath. Remember Article 6. Remember your oath of office or for affirmation, my man. Remember that. >> So, you go ahead and act up if you want to just cuz you mad right now because I'm telling you the truth or you don't like what I'm saying. You go ahead and do that. That'll be your problem, not mine. There's a court notice when they uh rescheduled my hearing and stuff. He handed [music] over paperwork from a prior court date showing his information that was already sitting in the system. Yet, the officer still pushed for a verbal date of birth as if the physical ID sitting in his hands wasn't proof enough. The man refused to just hand over [music] spoken details he had already provided on paper. And honestly, once you've shown a photo ID with your name on it, what exactly is the extra verbal in confirmation supposed to accomplish besides stragging this out even longer? >> I see the system once you look that up. Yo, you're not going to >> Henry Gin Jr. Sir, it's right there for you, sir. >> What's your date of birth? >> It's right there, sir. When you when you check it up in your computer, it pop up, sir. >> What is it? >> I do not consent to that. All that information is right there. Here go the picture ID for you. There. There you go. Perfect. >> That's Ramsey County and all that. All that [ __ ] going to pop up once you do all that. >> All right. So, since we're confused, I'll explain it to you. >> We're not confused about nothing, sir. We're not confused. I'm not confused. >> So, you understand you can't do this. It's >> No, I don't understand. I can't do this because I did this all last year and no none of y'all said nothing to me. >> Okay. So then you >> none of you guys said nothing to me. Now, right now, what you're doing is trying to interfere with the civil rights process by acting like you your your your how you say, executing your ministerial duties because this is his second time with a different partner harassing me for no [ __ ] reason at all. And I knew you guys know I did this cuz y'all just sat there and watched me do this [ __ ] He asked a question that deserved a real answer. [music] Who exactly had he hurt by setting up a tent in a space that clearly wasn't blocking anyone's path? Instead of addressing that, [music] the officer just repeating that a citation was coming and that he'd need to pack up and move along, which conveniently [music] sidesteps the entire question of whether anyone was actually harmed. >> I am homeless. I set this up here for the night so I could be here. No, it's not illegal. No, it's not illegal. Who did I hurt by doing this? Since you saying it's illegal cuz for something to be illegal, you have to hurt somebody >> public sideway, >> man. I'm not blocking nothing. This mad space right there, as you can see. So, how can you say I'm obstructing? How am I obstructing anything with this mad way for people to move and go about freely? Like I said, once you get sighted, I'm going to have you pack this up and move along. >> Once you have this [ __ ] right here, you see this [ __ ] All right. In order to block something, you have to be blocking it. If you're cighting me, I'm staying the night here. Right here, until it stopped raining or something. I'm not just leaving like this. >> If you're doing that, we'll just arrest you for obstruction and we'll go that way. >> Arrest me for obstruction. That That was your plan. That's why you came here then. It was your intention to come here to harass if you're not going to cooperate. >> All right. Well, I'm going to leave, sir, but it's raining. When it get done raining, I'm going to leave. I can't take my [ __ ] down the road cuz I have valuable stuff in here. I'm going to leave. I'm going to leave. You're going to give my citation. I'm going to leave you right. >> Yeah, that's correct. >> When he explained he needed a few minutes because it was raining and his belongings included sensitive electronics, the officer's tone shifted to something almost mocking. How people this arrogant even got jobs in law enforcement is beyond me because they're supposed to enforce the law, not act like tyrants. >> I want you to keep this same attitude and zeal. Okay? Keep the same [ __ ] energy. >> I got the same. >> Keep the same energy, sir. Keep the same energy. >> Donald, keep that same energy, Donald. Keep that same energy, Donald. Keep that same energy. I like I like people like you. Big McDonald's. >> McDonald's. >> McDonald's. >> Yeah. >> You on your own with that hamburger. >> You on your own. You got the Big Mac. We got the Big M. Just to let you know. Now, you see right? Now, I want y'all to pay attention to this. Yo, pay attention to how since I went and grabbed them documents from the uh from the courthouse, how they been harassing me intentionally. This is how they interfere with the civil rights process. You see what I'm saying? They look for any and everything to try to charge me up cuz they know I I do my own matters own on myself. I present my own matters, my own cases. So they try to have me cased up to have me like just doing [ __ ] doing [ __ ] to try to make me quit or making but what they're doing this is conspiracy against civil rights interfering with the civil rights process and this is how they go about it acting like they're uh how you say under the guise of executing the ministerial duties because I have videos and [ __ ] of all last year when I was put my tent up here every night in the morning I wake up and take it down early in the morning. The other officer that I talked to he said he ain't have no problem with it unless long as I take it down. You see what I'm saying? But now this dude talking about he want to sight me and this the same officer I have him on video the one that's in there with the car thing now I have him on video as well harassing me on Friday you understand >> Thursday I'm not talking to you mom he pressed the officer on whether this was even a criminal matter or a civil one and got a flat answer that it was criminal because it violated a city ordinance an answer that dodges the actual legal distinction being asked about entirely makes you wonder how many citations get written by officers who couldn't explain the legal category of their own paperwork if their job depended on it because right now. Well, it kind of does. >> I'm talking to my audience. All right. That's who I'm talking to. >> You talk to your audience. >> I'm talking to my audience. My audience. So, what was you saying now? >> Talk to your Do you want to hear me? >> What was you saying? >> Okay. Difference in officer discretion. Just because they let you do it last year doesn't mean it's no longer illegal. >> Yeah, it is. >> You understand that, right? >> It's never illegal, sir. It's never illegal. I'm [ __ ] homeless. You can look up the >> It's no longer illegal. I'm [ __ ] homeless. I'm homeless. There's no It's not There's no such thing as a home. Where the [ __ ] like Come on, man. >> Homeless, but you can't set up a shop. Knock it off. There's mass space right there. I'm not obstructing nothing. I'm not obstructing nothing. I'm not obstructing nothing. I'm not obstructing nothing. Who did I hurt by being here? >> Did I hurt any? Was anybody injured? >> Are these matters civil or criminal, sir? >> That's not how it works. >> Are these matters civil? All right. Are your charges? Is it civil or criminal? Your city or Is it civil or criminal, sir? >> Criminal. >> It's criminal. >> It's a city ordinance. Yeah. >> Hey yo, federal rules of civil procedure said there's only one cause of action. That's a civil action. Bro, so how do you have me in in a criminal act? >> I mean, I don't understand. >> You said the city ordinance. >> Minneapolis city ordinance. You can't set up a shelter on a public sidewalk. >> All right, check this out. So, which jurisdiction is this under? Which constitution? Which constitutional jurisdiction is this under? >> Is this Is this equity? Is this equity? >> Is this equity? Is this common law? >> Is this equity common law? >> Ordinances. >> Equity common law. Do these officers really have nothing better to do? Why do they act like America is the safest place in the world? while he was harassing a homeless man [music] who was just trying to protect himself from the rain. People around them were being assaulted, robbed, and dealing [music] with real crimes. Then again, maybe these officers weren't competing for an award for the best, or rather worst officer of the year, because that's the only way I can make sense of this [music] behavior. >> Which jurisdiction are you operating under? >> We're not out of water. >> All right. So, which jurisdiction are you operating under, sir? Cuz ignorance is about to hurt you, yo. >> Nothing. >> You're ignorance. You're ignorance. You're ignorance. You're learn You're right now. You're in school. I'm trying to teach you something so you don't hurt yourself in the future. I know you got people that need your ignorant, arrogant ass cuz you tried to get extra ignorant arrogant with me. A fake aggressive like that was supposed to scare me out of some [ __ ] >> Ignorant agon. What are you saying? >> Ignorant, arrogant [ __ ] >> Arrogant. >> You heard what the [ __ ] I said. You heard exactly what I said. And you just try to, you know, throw that sneak disc. But back to what I was saying, though. And that [ __ ] right there is going to get you in trouble, yo. Cuz y'all do a lot of [ __ ] forgetting that you're under oath of affirmation to uphold, support, and protect, not [ __ ] around and harass because you got a job. >> Understand the law. >> I don't think you understand the law. That's the major issue. Yo, don't worry. You and your gang about to understand it real well. There's some high people that's about to teach y'all because y'all don't [ __ ] listen. Y'all don't learn. Y'all just continue up. Despite being told his [music] questions about jurisdiction were pointless and ignorant, he never stopped pushing back and eventually agreed to pack up his things [music] in the rain simply to avoid giving the officer the confrontation he seemed to be fishing for the entire time. >> Harass him. So therefore, it's some people about to teach y'all. You'll see what I'm talking about. >> Okay, >> you'll see exactly what I'm talking about. You them judges, them crooked ass judges y'all got down there and all around the Yeah. Any these little jurisdictions like the second judicial, fourth judicial, [ __ ] like that district? Yeah. And oh, the United States District, y'all got some people that's about to teach y'all a major lesson, y'all. >> Okay, >> don't worry. And guess what? Everything's going to be lawful and legal. And guess what? Y'all can congratulate yselves cuz y'all work so hard for it. Y'all work extra hard for it.

I got special electronics in here. I'm not about to get wet because you're on some [ __ ] power trip [ __ ] I'mma pack up and leave, sir, but I'm going to pack up. >> In the end, the man packed up his belongings [music] in the rain and was issued a citation for violating the city ordinance against setting up a shelter on a public sidewalk with 30 days given to resolve it.
