Ask the cop for their badge number and then call 911 and ask them, they will verify with the police department that the cop is genuine. You are well within your rights to do this and a genuine cop is not going to question it.
Chris Horry I would call 101, or the American equivalent for the non-emergency number. it w shouldn't matter though, as they all automatically change to suit your country whatever you put in.
imagine being a blind gangster, doing gangster things with your gangster friends, then the cops show up and they bolt, and suddenly your stuck on a roof without a guide to help you down the ladder, and the police don't believe your blind. I would genuinely piss myself
Man, I would have played up my disability as an excuse if I were in your shoes at that time. I would have been like, "What officer? We are in a barn on private property? I thought we were over at my friends tree house". lol I think they would have bought it.
If I were you and the cops found me in that barn drinking I would've played up the whole blind act and said "Oh golly. I was with my church group when I had wandered off. I swear officer, I had no idea where I was."
Nice little story. When you tell it we can identify with you every step of the way. Except maybe the vomiting part. I think there's a new TV series in this: The Wild Teenage Runaways in New Milford, Connecticut!
He's said on a previous video that he has a malformation of the optic nerve, so he can't have eye surgery for that, at least with the current technology.
It's so great that you had a good childhood and some nice storys to remember! Some kids just stay home and live a sad life. And it's great that the other kids liked you too and involved you into their activities. You definetly live your life to the fullest!
Daniel Cuadriello You know, I'd actually wager more that they raised it to try and keep alcohol out of high school. Considering most people turn 18 when they are still in high school, it would make it really easy for the rest of the high schoolers to get booze out of their 18 year old friends.
Ya, it was changed 33 years ago back in 1984. The idea back then and still today is that it a is good and effective way in reducing highway crashes. Multiple studies have concluded that increasing drinking age to 21 has resulted in a almost 20% decrease in traffic fatalities every year. And anyway even back in the 80's there where only 4 states where you where able to buy alcoholic beverages at the age of 18. Most other states had a 19, 20, and 21 age rule as well. The only reason why its not ratified is because its not really even a federal mandate or law. This is a state issue and the federal government has no grounds to tell what the drinking age should be in the US. The only reason why States will most likely not ever have a 18 year old drinking age again is because outlined in the National Minimum Drinking Age Act of 1984 it says any state that doesn't enact a minimum drinking age of 21 will lose up to 10% of all their funding for highway and transportation. EDIT: I want to point out that before the 26th Amendment passed there where only around 6 states that let you buy alcoholic beverages at the age of 18. Once the 26th Amendment passed pretty much all states lowered their drinking age. Then most states for some inexplicable reason from 1971 to 1980 changed their drinking age once more.
States can set the drinking age to whatever they would like within reason. Legally there's no reason it HAS to be 21, but the federal government will refuse to provide federal funding for highways or road maintenance to the state if they lower it. So it's reasonably possible you could get states to lower the drinking age if you can come up with a source for a couple billion dollars to replace the federal money.
Why do you think? "THINK OF THE CHILDREN!" Same reason the age of consent has been raised, drugs have been made illegal, etc. Just claim some danger is posed to kids and you can get any mush-minded simpleton to sign on.
+Mshojat That is absolutely false. Here is a quote from a study conducted by the CDC: "Although past studies have indicated that moderate alcohol consumption has protective health benefits (e.g., reducing risk of heart disease), recent studies show this may not be true. While some studies have found improved health outcomes among moderate drinkers, it’s impossible to conclude whether these improved outcomes are due to moderate alcohol consumption or other differences in behaviors or genetics between people who drink moderately and people who don’t." Source: www.cdc.gov/alcohol/fact-sheets/moderate-drinking.htm The assertion you just made is a lie rooted deep within the alcohol industry, which bears no significant evidence in its favor. On the contrary, your aforementioned assertion is continually being questioned and potentially being proven wrong by people who care more about individual lives than workers in the alcohol industry, who only care about your money.
+Carrey John "Trust me" isn't an argument. Studies have shown (like the one I linked to, conducted by the *CDC*) that claim is false. Do I care if you drink wine? No, I couldn't care less. It is just becoming harder and harder to "prove" that any alcohol in moderation is *healthy*. Of course, alcohol in moderation is better than drinking excessively, obviously. EDIT: I apologize if this post comes off as hostile, that is not my intention.
Hurray for living in Denmark, where you can buy alcohol at 16. At my high school we got to have the canteen for Friday night sometimes and partied there, and we could even buy beers, no problem!
Yeah, if you resist arrest, they will do whatever they can to get you down. You’re not allowed to resist. If you just go along with it, then you’ll be let off easy.
Hey Tommy, couldn't hope noticing the turntable and tape machine in the background of most of your videos.. Would you say these are 'blind-friendly' audio formats? Could you do a video on how you use them or your preferred way of listening to music?
Treble Hook - he was in boarding school. They take care of the kids while they live at school. Since it's a private school, they can suspend students for doing things while under their charge.
KalaThePro Games yes blind people go to normal prison I was a correctional officer for a year now I'm United States Capitol police and the only difference is the blind people get an aid dog to protect from assaults from the other inmates and guide them around the prison
I love your stories.i feel like I'm sitting down listening to my dad...odc if your blind.i just like to hear you tell stories and your experiences,there is something so familiar with you I think everyone can relate to someone so friendly
Hey Tommy.. I have a *QUESTION!* When you recollect a memory, do you look up and to the left or right? Body language experts say when people look right, they're telling the truth and left when lying. That sometimes changes depending on if you're left- or right-handed. *But.. do blind people do it at all?*
I am glad your blindness didn't keep you from having a normal childhood and getting into a little trouble like everyone else.
@This Dude pffft the bigger they are the harder they fall.
Enjoy
i cn see and ive never been in party
This Dude if you keep doing it eventually you’ll get caught
My strict parents never let me
@@arderemortem2091 It's never too L8 to get into a little trouble.
Man, you could have said that you didn't know that you were being taken into private property...
But he was drinking & under 18, so that by itself was illegal.
but what if he didnt know he was drinking alcohol because he never drank b4? :D
Have you tasted alcohol before? You'll notice.
well yeah, but he could have at least tried to get out of the trespassing.
He already went to a concert like the next day or whatever. He was a kid, not in much real trouble.
Hey how do you know the cop is an actual cop if you can't see his badge? Shouldn't they be carrying like a badge in braille or something?
Rui Ning Wang never thought about that. good question
Rui Ning Wang Yeah, that actually interests me!

I followed my friend, I have no idea how to get back
Tommy just make me happy, he's a great storyteller!
Do your eyes sting if you chop onions???
Eddie Price it's a reaction with your tears, so I don't see why he wouldn't
I think not since he naturally keeps his eyes closed, meaning the onion vapor wouldn't be able to get to his eyes.
Well you only cry is you're not cutting the onion correctly.
Eddie Price watch his videos man, he have a video about it
Have you not seen Christine Hà, the brilliant cook who won MasterChef in 2012? She had no problem using sharp objects.

Loved that story! ❤
this story just enlightened my day.
Cop: "You have the right to see a lawyer."

He says he wasn’t very focused in school there is understatement. Really enjoy listening to this guy experiences great guy.

Interesting. I didn't realize the drinking age in the US was ever below 21. Wonder why they changed it from 18.
