Unlawful Cops vs. Brave Citizens Who Know Their Rights!
What if you were standing on a public side walk, video recording and two armed gang members approach you, ask you to identify yourself, start assaulting you when you don’t comply with their request, tie you up, throw you in the back of their car and transport you to a cage where they keep you until they’re ready to let you out? And while you’re sitting in that cage, they call some of their buddies who steal your car and take it to their property. Would their actions be right or wrong? Would it matter of the two thugs weren’t Crips or Bloods, but belonged the largest, most powerful , most organized gang in the neighborhood called the state police?

With virtually unlimited funds, these badged enforcers have the resources and power to make your life a living
nightmare.
Under normal circumstances, when someone assaults you, you can fight back to protect yourself or your loved ones. But when officers harass or attack you, your retaliation will certainly bring the wrath and full force of the state upon your head, complete with reinforcements, helicopters in the air, dogs on the ground and you either behind bars or taking up the next cabinet space in the local morgue.
Unfortunately, bad cops have the power to harm you and your family, steal your property, ruin your public record, imprison you for life and financially bankrupt you.
So what do you do? Do you roll over and just let them get away with their disregard for justice? Or do you stand up for principle and hold these costumed thugs accountable?
Isn’t it at this
point that
Jefferson’s assertion springs to life? “when in justice becomes law, resistance becomes duty.”
It’s really the duty of the people to rid themselves of their ignorance and stand on the high ground of useful knowledge.
Knowledge is power and a plethora of examples should tell you that bad cops love to take advantage of those who don’t possess that power.
First, you need to know that you have the right to film any public servant, at any time in any public place, for any reason. Glick vs. Cuniffe established this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glik_v._Cunniffe
And even if it didn’t the
First Amendment and
Fourth Amendments of the
Bill of Rights firmly establishes it.
And even if that didn’t exist, the law of common sense trumps it all. If you encounter a public servant, then any member of the public has a right to record any servant who claims to serve them.
Next, unless you’re operating a motor vehicle or you’re flying a commercial airline and except in these states you NEVER have to provide an ID to anyone upon request. Even in these stop and identify states, the request must accompany the officer’s “reasonable suspicion” that you have committed, are committing or will commit a crime. And this suspicion must be specifically articulated. If they can articulate why they reasonably suspect you, they can, according to the courts, legally detain you.
A way to quickly test this is by asking the officer, “am I being detained, or am I free to go?” If he says you’re not being detained…take that opportunity to walk away. If he says he is detaining you, ask him to specifically articulate his reasonable suspicion that you have committed a crime.
If you’re detained, you’ll have to decide if withholding your identity is worth the possibility of arrest or a prolonged detention.
Here are several examples of people who refuse to hand their ID’s over to police, credits for each video can be found in the description under the video.
