"Church Member Questions & Attacks Photographer In Public" First Amendment Audit
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 мар 2022
- I was in Brea Ca. capturing video & images from the public sidewalk outside this local church before Sunday service got underway. I had a couple of interactions at this location. One church member in particular who approached me on the sidewalk, hitting my camera phone out of my hand then proceeded to step on it, because he didn't like that I was recording his image. I tried to de escalate the situation , advising him to go about his day & walk away if he didn't want to be recorded. This time I had to initiate the call to police. In the process of checking my camera phone for damages just before police made contact with me, I inadvertently forgot to hit the record button on my camcorder, missing only the initial interaction with police. During that interaction with police, I offered an olive branch to the guy why attacked me. I let the police know that I would accept a public apology on camera in lieu of pressing any charges.

Stop asking for apologies. Start pressing charges. Those consequences are the lessons they'll really learn from.

completely agree, especially when forced and insincere, and it is not ruining someone's day ,but probably protecting some other innocent civilian from a future assault by education . it does little good to not hold them responsible for their actions.
So we seek to replace one tyranny with another do we. Not promote freedom at all?
Exactly. That guy learned nothing and will be much more likely to offend again. Press criminal charges and follow up with civil action.
He didn’t learn any lesson. He is smirking while walking away. He’s a bully and will remain that way.
I got that feeling too ...🥴
Why are people acting out si cringe about a camera ... ? I mean I am filmed when buy one bottle of milk, I do not care, nobody cares. Here We can film in public but we can not use thise images for commercial purpose, but we can for personnal use.
Images taken for security means can only be released to police and law purpises.
So a bit different in how you treat the image after taking them.
I wish I could give your comment more than just one like.
@@RuthPreach To be honnest I wish that too for you. I wish you could walk the street free and enjoy it, I wish for you to be in admiration of something beautifull and to feel free to immortaluse it in a picture.
Church people are crazy insane mother fucking fake ass bitches brainwashed what a joke
He's too full of himself to understand that the next one he encounters may be toting a can of pepper spray, or maybe something a little stronger.
If he does that in public to a stranger, we should worry for his family.
wifey has obviously had to deal with his anger. boy needs jesus.
As Furry taught us, now that you've got him on camera apologizing and admitting to assaulting you, you can successfully sue him in civil court for damages. I understand why you did what you did, but I still think these people should be charged. A little time spent in cuffs and jail, along with all their legal costs and fines, is the only thing that stands a chance of impacting them.
If something like this happens in the future, please press charges.
And actually man up and defend yourself. Get quality pepper spray like UDAP mugger fogger or the OC17 police magnum.
@@kishascape Yup, those are real immediate consequences for actions. Don't have to rely on cops to actually arrest someone.
The guy who knocked the camera out of your hands needs to go into the church and confess his sins, then needs to be arrested for his crimes.
No, he can find god in prison ... happens a lot there.
@@mrsatire9475 Actually they all find Jesus. He's always hiding under their bunk.
You should always prosecute, that's the only way bullies learn.
There is no reason to drop charges... none. Take him to jail and then to court and then drop charges so he knows there are real consequences for his actions.
Sinners are the worst. 🤮
I agree. I can't imagine that his phone didn't suffer some damage.
I disagree. I think he was literally just ignorant. He really believed it wasn't allowed, the filming. He assumed strange behavior is illegal
@@alistairproductions He also believed he had the right to himself enforce his misunderstanding of the law. He deserved being spiced and arrested, FAR was more of a Christian than he.
I like this auditor, he is calm and polite. The church guy who went ballistic is now forever on the internet so his family, kids and friends can see how he treats other people. How embarrassing.
I would never ask for an apology again. He needed charges filed just because he did what he did.
Agree. He was a smug prick about his apology.
THE ASKNG FOR AN APOLOGY IS EMBARESSING FOR MEN
I agree. He didn't apologize for walking you down as you were backing away. In this day and age of Will Smith slapping Chris Rock, I will defend myself against any man walking up to me like that. He's not walking to you to give you a drink. At the very least, if it had been me, I would've filled his face with bear mace.
@@jesseleefedowitz3887 - not embarrassing enough to get out of jail free.
@@RickHindman-ou6nj all of this!!!!! The biggest hypocrites are found in the place called church!
Why did the cops let the attacker stand there with his hands in his pockets? What happened to officer safety?
That only applies when the suspect did not smash someone's property.
In my jurisdiction it falls under officer discretion. Personally when I walk up on a situation like this I look at the people's waistlines looking for bulges that could be weapons, knife clips, stuff like that. After that it plays by the people involved depending on the call. Calls like this, I wouldn't care about it.
@@zachsmith4253 I've had my bulge mistaken for a weapon
@@andyandy2498 yeah that happens sometimes. Unfortunately I've seen a guy get tasered for grabbing his own penis.
@@zachsmith4253 I notice that officer discretion really kicks in when you stop a fellow officer breaking the law.
Screw the apologies, he needs consequences to learn his lesson. It's unbelievable that they still pile shit that tall and put glasses on it, and he acts like that in front of his kids at church. He's probably insane when he thinks no one is looking.
Guarantee his wife has been on the receiving end of his behavior more than a few times. Sad
It's possible . sad if true
@@FirstAmendmentRights And YOU had the opportunity to make him pay by having criminal charges filed against him and you let him off the hook. Shame on you.
@@FirstAmendmentRightsthe police told him that you're crazy and just let it go
The police disparaged you and told the guy that you were just a "baiter", that was trying to get people to attack him and the police blamed everything on you.
And you fell for it and let him walk all over you
Had you pepper sprayed the guy they wouldn't have been able to do that
How do you press charges and take him to court they wouldn't be able to disparage you
You really screwed up
This guy has a definite "cop" vibe: escalation, intimidation, issuing directives, and so forth.
Reminds of the probation officer who detained the guy from high desert.
He is talking to them with his hands in his pockets, normal people they don’t want them doing that… only special people get away with that, so I think you are right
His nature is known very well to his wife, she tried to stop him several times.
Feel sorry for the situation at home...
Normally its the man holding his Karen back. This time it was the woman holding her daren back lol
She's got more sense than him
@@fullTimeVeganinOhio Definition of an understatement. 😄
@@dutchman7623 lol agreed. If anything I think he embarrassed her
@@fullTimeVeganinOhio She is strong enough to take it, guess she got used to it after over twenty years. 😃
It astounds me that they don't practice what is talked about inside.
havent you read the bible? that fucker is full of horrible,immoral shit.
Sorry Church goers from all the people I've known or had acquaintance with I find many Church goers are the most hateful people I've met.
Actually I’m not surprised at all. Very typical behavior of churchgoers
He must have the spirit of apostal Peter, getting his sword out first.
what they teach is tithes. 10% of your income buys your way into heaven
He said, we all learned a lesson, by that he meant that's what you get for filming in public. You should have pressed charges. He still put some of the blame on you when you did absolutely nothing wrong.
Always press charges,, thats the only way a lesson is taught, this bully has done it before and will do it again
[Quebec, Canada]
well done. the difference between someone who has morals and someone who doest. The irony is that the one who doesnt have morals...is attending a church lol
well he needs forgivness
Not really ironic considering it is based on a book full of genocide and rape. Just because they say it's moral doesn't mean it is.
It's not well done at all he screwed up majorly in two ways
Screw up number two was not pressing charges, now the bully thinks he won because he thinks the cops forced you into letting him off.
The bully will do this again to somebody, guaranteed.
The cameraman is an enabler of bullies
But the biggest screw up of ALL (number one) is not pepper spraying the bully when the bully attacked
Exercising your rights is a dangerous activity and people have lost their lives doing this sort of thing so if the person behind the camera isn't prepared to defend their life against an attacker they will lose their life and possibly the life of others around them like that lady
Weird how many people walk toward someone saying "Stop filming me" ...
All the while physically accosting people.
I would have totally pressed charges..
That dude would have been sporting a nice layer of pepper spray if he tried that on me
By not pressing charges, he is free to do this to someone else, but maybe he learned a good lesson and won’t do this again. He has assaulted you. You dont deserve that, but you are a kind and forgiving person and the world needs more of that. You are a better woman than me. Love you. Love your videos ( I’ve only recently started watching) Be safe. 💕
You guys need to press charges on this people, letting them go does not teach them a lesson
WOW! This was your best video thus far!!! Get some mace for next time! Also, his apology was garbage. You should've let him make it and then said "I dont accept your apology as it doesn't seem sincere and I'd still like to press charges!"
That's what I commented!! 🙂👍
Thank you for exposing the corrupt churches I have gone to so many churches and believe me they do not worship God they lie . The Bible say you worship me with your lips but your hearts are far from me.
Amen!
He had the perfect opportunity to shout-out their church (for free) and make him and his church look great, but he chose to immediately resort to violence. Who tf does that??
There was NO Apology. Smug look on his face tells he is only doing this to prevent charges of assault and battery! quote “I think we all learned a lesson” His demeanor say if police were not here I would beat the shit out of you! He has won this one.
Only way to teach him was to file charges!
And stating he "put the camera on the ground" instead of what actually happened which was him attempting to grab the phone/camera and in doing so knocked it 4-5 feet down to the sidewalk and purposefully stepping on it.
Yep. Want justice, get even, revenge? Get in 'their' pocket. File charges, let him pay for an attorney & fines.
Your alot nicer then I would have been his smug attitude was like he will do this again and get away with it and his choice to attack you knowing his kids and wife near by did seem to matter to him it wouldn't matter to me..
@@awalk56 for what, the "sever damages" that were inflicted ??
@@terripipher1300 you would not have done shite
That guy definitely has a short fuse and needs an anger management class. Keep safe out there! I really appreciate what you!!!! Maybe its time for some pepper spray? lol
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE IS NOW ALLOWED IN THE USA WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES
Yeah he needs to bring OC spray because if he touches you he gets the hot sauce. You don't need to keep backing up
Anger management? He needs to be arrested, jailed and charged. And he needs to be told he's banned from the church before he gets himself and the church sued and gets himself shot assaulting the next photographer. You would've been justified if you shot him when he was charging at you like that. I wouldn't be so gracious. If it were me he approached like that I hope he has life insurance because I will defend myself and he will never forget the ass whooping I would dish out.
American christians are very undisciplined when it comes to their supposed doctrine.
100% he needs pepper spray. I always carry on my keys. So if a rabbid animal or rabbid human comes after me threatening violence i can use the sauce to tame them.
As someone who grew up in the United Methodist Church, I am horrified to see this absolutely vile behavior by this supposed Christian. He was looking for a fight from the moment he decided to pull into that particular parking space. He needed a long stream of pepper spray right in the eyes. By the way his wife reacted, I would guess she has seen this unhinged reaction from him before and/or been on the receiving end of his irrational and abusive behavior.
The funniest part of these videos is the pregnant silence between "I noticed you were videoing us." and "For sure, yes." until the next
response.
That man has control issues. Hopefully, he doesn't treat his family that way. Glad you are ok.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE IS NOW ALLOWED IN THE USA WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES
We are all imperfect. That is why this jerk attends church. He just needs to attend more often
Church people who hide behind their religion are the worst humans on earth.
He is a complete control freak, he beats his wife for sure.
church will not help that evil man
So he gets to put his hands in his pockets right in front of the officers? Good thing the video videographer didn't try that.
Or any urban Black nineteen year old man.
@@esquireaudits4737 😔 we found one
exactly...
Yea I'd ask the cops about that! Special treatment he must donate to the FOP
We have to understand that all people that attend church aren’t necessarily Christian and or have God’s love as in this case. Mr auditor showed mercy by letting his aggressor go free despite an insincere apology!
Wow. So much to unpack in this video!
1. This is by far your best video. Well done on every level.
2. His apology was very insincere. I could tell by the smirking and body language. I wish you pressed charges, but you're a better person than he is.
3. As a Christian, he does NOT represent real Christians!!! Love, Joy, Peace, Kindness -- fruits of the spirit. Gal 5:22. Such a bummer seeing this.
4. How can they simply deny you a public record request?? No reason not to... Wow.
You’re more generous than I could ever be.
God forgave the men who crucified him, aren't we called to do the same?
Embarrassed his family, the church and himself. The worst part is that he didn’t even care how he acted, what a chump. Probably verbally abuses people all the time.
This church member needs to be arrested immediately for assault, he also needs to go back into church and confess his sins.
Dude committed assault. Charge people like this!!
You have documented some shameful behavior here by religious folk. If I were looking for a place of worship, seeing this video would make my list of possibilities one church shorter. I don't want to join a congregation that includes someone so uncontrollably violent. His apology was, of course, insincere, but it's worth something that he had to deliver it on camera.
You should have shown this video to the preacher.
@@starguy2718 send it to the preacher. Tell him to show it in the church meeting.
😂
Churches are full of imperfect people. The entire church wasn’t rude or out of control, plenty of attendees chose to wish you a good day and let your freedom flag fly. Judging an entire church by a couple people is silly. Nobody should be judged by the behavior of a member of their “group”.
The church's FB would be a good start sending a bad review. Of course it could be deleted by the admins. However YT is forever and when it gets out to the public, he would be publicly shamed and embarrassed by his church and his family and friends.
Here’s an additional thought, I was recently at a roller rink and everyone was filming their kids skating, laughing, and all around good family fun. Not one person walked up to another person and said “stop filming me, you don’t have my permission to film me”. What’s wrong with people now a days. My thinking is usually who cares, they aren’t bothering me, let that dad film his kids, and put it in his family videos.
Additionally if I saw some dude filming in the BMV, or at the court house, I would figure they’re tourists, or admiring the architecture, or maybe even a school project. All I know they aren’t bothering me, and it ain’t my business.
Great comment. If I could add I'm thinking somewhere in the mix is guilt they can't get over for something ???...
Or adding the Hi mom hi dad and go about your day. Thats what we grew up on. Not getting in peoples faces and asking them what they are doing. People be so entitled nowadays
I see many comments saying that he should press charges. Don't get me wrong. Charges are often warranted and it is our right to do so if we deem necessary. But these 1st amendment auditors are doing a great service to our society. Not just to those who support them-which I do- but, more importantly, to those who do not fully understand Constitutional rights and what they mean. Whether the apology is sincere or not is entirely up to "First Amendment Rights". But I laud him sending that guy on his way after the apology. That guy may have left cursing or he may have left enlightened. But, in my opinion, he left with a lesson on 'tolerance'. The beauty of the United States, and what sets us apart in the world is our ability to be tolerant; of not only those we favor, but especially for those we do not. I see these auditors as helping to further this founding principle. Tolerance is our best weapon against hate.
I can only imagine what he probably does to his significant other behind closed doors!!!! He's way out of control & should've gotten jail time.
This is a man who goes to Church to tell people he's a good Christian It took the police telling he he could be Arrested to act like one
Being Christian makes them suspect.
Why didn’t they tell that man to take his hands out of his pockets for officers safety?
That apology was worth as much as a nine dollar note...
Halleluja.
That was insane. I’ve watched so many of your videos and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to watch this one.
I think we all learned a lesson today.
Yes we did, I learned what kind of Hypocrites go to this church.
PHYSICAL VIOLENCE IS NOW ALLOWED IN THE USA WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES
This was just one man, don't blame the whole church.
@@chellejack3480 All Christians are hypocrites. All religion is made up fantasy BS.
hypocrites how?
You need to tell the cops you want to press charges and the guy is inside the church and let him get arrested so the whole congregation gets and education and learns that recording in public is LEGAL and if you dont want to be recorded park somewhere else or ignore them and go about your day. the lesson you learned was to NOT GET your phone SLAPPED OUT OF YOUR HAND. het a case for it when there is a loop on the back so it cant get knocked or dropped out of your hand.
That would have been awesome!
So the cops should go into the Church guns drawn ? Little prick is lucky it was a Religious man on a Sunday.
I am 100% certain that if I did that to someone I'd be in handcuffs and arrested for assault. There is no question in my mind. Regardless if the victim didn't want to press charges. Unbelievable what some people get away with. It's infuriating!
When he said, "WE all learned something today", he was talking about YOU learned the consequence of filming him.
Nope. I'll go back for a revisit
Im surprised this wasn't reported to the local news channels. This is not good for the church, nor the body of believers. This was not becoming on a Christian, a father, nor a husband. The perpetrator get's a "F".
I'm sure he went into the church and all the guys patted him on the back and the women hugged him and told him it's okay. Now he thinks he's a hero because he took one for the team.
Commiefornia would never show this on the news
@@Anne-pv9cb We should share the video to local news. Or Audit the Audit Channel.
Please press charges or have him written up to face a judge, put pressure on the cops say you want to file charges or a video of them.
i would have filed charges on him not sure if he could sue the church that would be a stretch
Not just a bully but a condescending a hole to boot “I think we all learned a lesson today” WTAF
Great content again
I think you giving them an opportunity to apologize speaks volumes about your character. You are a very good person and teaching so many. Keep it up your awesome at this
You should show up at that church every Sunday for a month, just to watch that clown get out of his car, knowing he can't do a damn thing about it, and that you do have a right to do it. He seems to think you learned something that day, he needs to find out what it's like to get a double dose of hot sauce, when he is attacking someone.
100% agree. Go back just to wait for him to show up every sunday. For 2-4 weeks.
I swear these religious folks are compensating for something else. I hope he isn't abusive to his wife and children. Great video as always! 👍
"I think we all learned a lesson today." LMAO, the dude with anger management problem was the only one that needed to learn the lesson.
This is a prime example of Christian love and a life filled with biblical lessons, aggressive from the get go
nah this is no good. you cannot allow someone that broke a phone to get away with no repurcussions. it was crystal clear that he thinks he did no wrong and STILL thinks that YOU are in the wrong and that YOU learned a lesson that day. i enjoy your style of auditing but this one was infuriating to watch. the next person that films him will suffer a similar fate. you could have taken steps to prevent that. extremely disappointing. 😕😕😕
I couldn't have said it better myself Christopher... The auditor simply kept on backing up for absolutely no reason whatsoever... Stand your ground for heavens sake!... You're standing on a public sidewalk... This is so frustrating to watch an aggressive moron walk away scot-free... I do know this much... If this had been an audit by certain auditors i normally watch... That idiot would've been on the ground screaming in agony after getting the "Hot Sauce" treatment... This guy now thinks that he can do exactly the same thing to someone else in the future... And he'll probably think that he can just offer a smug insincere apology and everything will be okay... What a joke. 😡
Agree. His apology was merely a way to not go to jail. It was not sincere. That was extremely obvious. A spoiled brat not wanting g to get in trouble. Maybe a trip to jail is just what this guy needs. If he reacts to a camera in public in such an aggressive way, how do you think he responds to his wife and kids in private?
He could come into contact with someone else who possibly won't be so forgiving & end up getting pepper spray to the face or even a fist . Don't get me wrong , there would have been charges guaranteed if I was injured or my equipment was broken . I used my best judgment for the situation. 👍📷📱🇺🇸
@@FirstAmendmentRights start going to a gym gain confidence become a man
What would Jesus do?
I can’t believe he was so aggressive, just because he was filmed going to talk to his imaginary friend
... after he pulled up with his dashcam filming
I did enjoy how you had to “guide” him on his so called apology. He wasn’t even sure what he was sorry for but you took the high road and accepted it.
First, I applaud the auditor for his work. This is by no means easy and he is risking grave bodily harm or death from individuals and police. So the following is just thoughts from someone not under the stress of the moment.
I wish the auditor had said and done a few things to firmly establish that the guy is committing a variety of offenses like "harassment, assault, battery, theft and vandalism." It is a crime, harassment, to _repeatedly attempt to make contact_ with another individual once they have made it clear that the contact is _unwanted._ There is specifically a defense provided to cops that PERMITS them to _harass_ you. But there is no such defense for a private citizen. When the man first approached, I wish the auditor would have said something like, *"Stop! I do NOT wish to have any conversation with you OR any contact with you WHATSOEVER! Stay away from me!"* And I wish he had repeated it at least once. In that way, when the guy refuses to stop or says, "I don't care what you want." then he has unequivocally committed the offense of _harassment._
An assault is merely a threat. The threat does not have to be _explicit._ If I throw a rock at you and it lands harmlessly on the street then that is still an assault. If you tell a cop that if he was not wearing that badge things would be different then that is an assault as you are _implicitly_ implying that you would otherwise do him some harm. All one needs to do to commit an assault is to do ANYTHING which could put another individual in "reasonable apprehension of harm." After telling the guy he objects to being harassed I wish the auditor would have said something like, *"Stop! The aggressive manner in which you are approaching me is making me fearful for my safety!"* And I wish he would have repeated this at least once. This is because a _reasonable person_ would stop and say something like, "I'm not threatening you. I just want to talk to you." If the guy acts reasonably and stops he is still committing the crime of harassment since he has already been informed that _no conversation or contact is desired WHATSOEVER!_
But of course this guy isn't reasonable and he does want to threaten so he is committing an "assault." But lets assume for the moment he says, "I'm just using the sidewalk." as he menacingly approaches the auditor. Then the auditor should say, "I do not feel safe with you _approaching me_ so let me stop and get out of your way." Then the auditor should take 2 steps INTO the street and move in the opposite direction down the sidewalk. When the guy turns to approach the auditor again he has clearly demonstrated his desire to threaten and by stepping into the street the auditor is clearly demonstrating his _reasonable fear_ since he is willing to risk being hit by traffic to avoid the guy getting to within arm's reach of him. This is also something I wish people would do when cops start pushing them down the sidewalk. Stepping into the street is NOT a crime. But it does establish _reasonable_ FEAR and if the officer steps out into the street too then that makes the "threat" explicit as the cop is now literally chasing you into the street.
Battery is simply "willful and unlawful use of force." It does not require physical harm to be inflicted it only requires PHYSICAL CONTACT. When the guy grabbed the auditors hand to rip the phone away he has made _physical contact_ and used _willful and unlawful_ force to take the phone. That is BATTERY. I wish the auditor would have said, "Ow! Let go of me, NOW!" Those six words establish that contact was made and that pain resulted. Anyone who has every tried to win a handshaking contest knows that it hurts when another squeezes your fingers in theirs. And any juror who has ever had that inflicted on them as a child will instantly HATE that guy and most likely vote to convict him. :)
Taking the phone is "theft" since theft only requires one take the property of another in order to deny them the lawful use of it. The guy literally took the phone to prevent the auditor from using it to record which is a _lawfully use_ of it. And what should the auditor have said? Exactly what he did or even better, "Give me back my PHONE!" And finally the damage or destruction of an other's property is vandalism. And it would be almost impossible to claim that throwing ones phone to the ground was not an effort to _damage_ it. Likewise, one can reasonably assume the phone suffered some damage EVEN if it is invisible. Soldered joints and inserted chips may have been broken or come loose and the effect not immediate. They may only be detected using magnification. And the drop was likely recorded by the g-sensor and accelerometer and could result in the phone being out of warranty when it does fail. It is reasonable to assume damage occurred resulting from being thrown and that makes it "vandalism."
I'll repeat this is in no way a criticism. This is all HINDSIGHT commentary from a non-lawyer. I just wanted to demonstrate what crimes were committed and what elements were present. And while one is not required to say anything to be the victim of these crimes certain statements can help to remove any ambiguity. It's a little hard for a defense attorney to claim there was no _reasonable fear_ when the victim has clearly said, "Stop approaching me. You are making me feel unsafe!" And it is a little hard for a cop to say, "There is no evidence he touched you," when you literally have said, "Ow! Let go of me!"
Anyway, great audit as usual. These church ones reminds me of a time when our pastor resigned. Before he did, he invited a homeless man to panhandle in front of our church before services. The pastor watched as his "flock" repeatedly ignored the man and ultimately called the cops on him. His sermon was as scorcher! As it should have been.
A Karen calling someone else a Karen. You can't make this crap up.
Sheds light on what real Christianity is like. Bible based instruction means NO violence. And yet it was you who forgave him.
The only one who learned a lesson was him.
The lesson I learned was to make sure I hit record on my camera before police make contact with me 👍📷📱🇺🇸
Every church, "you're welcome to come inside but I'm calling the cops to get you out of here I'm so afraid but you're welcome to come inside."
100% should have pressed charges.
I can't believe you guys let somebody assault you like that and damage your property and let them get away with it horrible
An on camera apology was good enough for me , not injured & no damage done to my equipment . 👍📷📱🇺🇸
I know this makes no sense and is apples to oranges... but if I sexually assault some girl and apologize should I still have to go to jail? An assault/battery (sexual, injury, or not) is still a serious crime and offenders need to be held accountable.
Especially if my apology was not a real one
@@FirstAmendmentRights pussy, that apology was not genuine at all. Ever heard of pepper spray?
@@FirstAmendmentRights Sorry, but you are missing the point. He had a grin when apologizing; did not look sincere. He had plenty of chances to back up before the assault. I would have pressed charges to embarrass him in front of his church and family; that's the only way these type of people MAY actually learn their lesson.
He's either a fellow blue liner, or he's good friends with alot of them.
That was very generous of you. I'm surprised there wasn't any damage to your phone. I have a new phone and I am pretty sure that I would not have been so understanding.
Man, I love how you guys have it good with implementation of laws in your country. You guys are lucky. Because fascism is growing everywhere around the world, especially in my country. You guys are lucky, and don’t let anything change that. Love and respect to you guys ❤.
That’s no apology. Press charges always. They have to actually learn the hard way for it to sink in completely. He’s been a bully for a long time and would NEVER have given that fake apology had he not been worried about being arrested.
You are much more forgiving than I would have been. Especially when he said we all learned a lesson. Meaning you learned a lesson. What lesson would that be?
The only lesson I learned for myself was to make sure my cameras on when I interact with police.
He was meaning she learned a lesson not to mess with him . He should of went to jail. We learned in school keep your hands to yourself
I'll go back for a re- audit to see once again if my right will be respected. I doubt he'd be that dumb twice to try getting physical with someone, if he even attends that church anymore out of shame for his actions . hopfully he's asked his creator for forgiveness .
Religions are usless
Chubby fuk earned a beat down...too bad he didn't get one.
What a smirk. It looks like he still thinks he’s in the right. What a jerk. His wife knows. His kids know.
If someone came that close, with that crazy look in their eyes, I would have gave them the spicy spray.
No mercy or they never learn
I know you should have pressed charges. But I appreciate you didn't. That makes you the better person. Many times evil takes the best of us. Like the lord said he who has no sin cast the first stone. Let's hope that guy learned his lesson and change his ways. You are and instrument man in ways that you don't even know. God bless.
LOVED watching chubby Bully Boy eating some humble pie in front of the World! What an embarrassment to his family and church...and Jesus! ⛪
That guy was a weirdo and I know you did the right thing by giving him an out but I still wanted to see him arrested. Or at the very least peppersprayed, lol

He probably kicked his dog before leaving home.
You're a lot more Christian than that parishioner will ever be. Well done you. 👏
I agree.
Bet he punches the dude collecting money

😇🙏🏻😂
I actually appreciate your offer of apology on his part. I have a different opinion when it comes to police but citizens, I can for sure see an apology being useful. Bridging gaps, I feel is what that does.
What always strikes me is that the people who go to church are so friendly and accommodating and never aggressive, and really love their neighbors. This is sarcasm, for those who didn't understand. They should be ashamed of themselves for reacting like that.
SaRcAsM. Or. [SARCASM]
Sadly there is no SARCASM font
Great composure! I would not have been that calm in that situation. A+
The church is supposed to be a hospital for sinners ,this guy needs a trip to the emergency room
No actually it’s not a hospital for sinners
Guy clearly didn't learn any lesson, should have pressed charges.
It's funny how people get so upset about being on camera when almost every building you enter in 2022 has cameras anyway. Usually on the outside too
Those aren't used for profit on RUclips.
@@pacificcoast101 maybe there's some truth to that. Still, it's legally protected rights, and I'm glad that they're being exercised and people are being educated. That's the important thing, When people and police stop freaking out about it the videos will become boring to everyone
He said “We all learned a lesson today”. “We”?
His congregation?
Wow! I hope you were ok after this my friend, he was a scary christian and I salute you for taking the apology even tho he was forced into doing it! keep fighting for your rights and I'll promise to keep on watching!
Thank you for standing up for our right to video record and take pictures in public. No one has the right to put their hands on anyone.📹📱📸🌍💯
#photographyisnotacrime
Press chargers, he did not learn a lesson. His apology was not an apology. "WE ALL learned a lesson today", what was the lesson for the photographer? He knew he had wife and kids and still chose to assault somebody.
@@kat050107 Defending his family? Are you serious? You think it's ok to attach someone standing on a public sidewalk filming, just because you don't like it and ignorant of the law? You and your family are filmed the minute you walk out your house, why when the camera is in someone's hand there's a problem? You will always be wrong and on the other side of the law. The police informed you so the next time, no excuse, you should go to jail.
@@SuperTara38
The difference is the footage from the security cameras are not being posted for monetary purposes. The security cameras don’t go around harassing people. Most times you don’t even know they’re there.
@@johnthemagicguy So you know you're being filmed from the moment you walk outside but you have a problem with a camera in someone's hand. Ignore them so you don't look like an idiot on the internet. And for the last time, being filmed in PUBLIC IS NOT HARASSMENT.......
It's harassment If it fits their narrative 😂
@@SuperTara38
I’ll say it again, security camera recordings are not put on RUclips for monetary purposes. This guy was asked a simple question and instead of just giving a straight answer, he was being a smartass.
~and I believe him attacking you was an hate crime. For all we know he hates guys who dresses & acts different from him. Please ;learn from this and press it harder next. time. Don't let him spill his narrative. You continue to speak loud so the cops can hear how they will let him off with no punishment. Furry would've narrated the crap outta them conspiring
don't be dumb
I'm so sorry that this happened to you, I hope you're ok not only physically but emotionally too.
Have you considered carrying pepper spray, you just don't know what can happen and what another person is capable of.
I understand you're open to an apology instead of going through with other procedures and that's completely up to you,...but please at least consider carrying pepper spray.
Thank you for the work you do in this movement. ✌
The smirk on his face tells me the apology was insincere. You should have pressed charges, IF the cops would have done their job that is. We all know that's never a given.
Hold up.... How the hell can they "deny" you for the footage from the body cams?! It's public record and a violation of the Freedom of Information Act to deny you...
I submitted twice , both times denied . reason was investigative in nature .
@@FirstAmendmentRights - But you didn't press charges. Therefore, there is no reason for an investigation. 🤔
@@FirstAmendmentRights That's bs. Make a stink about that and get the footage otherwise they'll keep pulling this shit on people.

File a lawsuit and contact the State FOIA coordinator.
Notice they never asked the guy to take his hands out of his pockets?
What a badass!!!
His mommy had to drag her naughty little boy back to the car!
I'm pissed at that Methodist, and now sanctimoniously sit at the front of the church, thanking the Lord for letting him aggressively mistreat a fellow citizen.
The sincerity of his apology is probably leaning towards the lower end of the spectrum…. But who knows… maybe as he thinks & reflects on it over the course of the day/week/month, he will truly humble himself on the err of his way!
Should contact The Reverend to suggest a good sermon on “turning your cheek “
The pastor needs a 1 on 1 with him.
People seem to feel entitled to information these days, and when they're not indulged, they get violent.
If by "shoves a camera in their face" you mean "walks directly up to the camera and draws attention to himself," then yes. That exactly.
@@kat050107 collecting photons is "entitled" explain in a logical manner or admit extreme insanity
@@kat050107 Bless your heart!!!
This is a perfect example of why I avoid organized religion at all costs. Well, that and the fact I'm a proud atheist. You are a much better man than I, as I would have insisted they charge that tyrant. The apology was given with a smirk that meant "I'm only doing this to get out of a criminal charge." Better hope you don't run into him when there are no cameras. Imagine what he would be capable of then? It would have been much better to have him go in that church and stand in front of the congregation and explain how he had assaulted someone outside and he wished to apologize. Lol He probably would have taken the criminal charges before he did that. 😂
Nice of you to accept an apology instead of charging him for assault and possibly suing him.
The dude has the "Will Smith" effect.
Ooooo, let's wear THAT one out. Excellent!!!
@@kevindunlap5525 so the new and improved, mk ultra
@@-themercyseat Actually, I think it's worn out already.
I don't believe these apologies are sincere. They just do it so as not to get arrested. I don't care if they have families. They need to be taught a lesson. Besides, who knows how they're treating their own families with tempers like that!!
6000+ people know that know 👍
@@FirstAmendmentRights That makes no difference! Most likely, HE did not see this video and neither did anyone he knows. And the public doesn't know his name or where he works. He should have been charged and arrested and he should lose his job because I guarantee you that if I owned a business and found out an employee did that, he would be fired immediately.
