Police Patrol stops at my Picnic Table to tell me this isn't my house; Lewiston, Idaho

- Joe Storm (of www.cityoflewis...) did not receive any caller complaint. He was on patrol at about 9:30am at the Pioneer Park: www.google.com... when he saw me laying on my back on a picnic table with my shoes off. I probably laid there for about 20 minutes before he arrived to enforce this social norm. I'm not sure what law he could have cited me for? Vagrancy? I would have to see how they generalized that ordinance for the city. Would it stick in their courts? It's possible. There are plenty of boot-licking judges who got voted into their positions by homeless hating political groups.
What really gets me burned up (1:58) about Storms reasoning is that when given the opportunity to explain himself to me about the criminal activity that is a problem for this area, it sounds like a lie shaped towards my activity. He targeted me as his distaste for the public. He failed to bring up any past problems in the park that may have led up to his need to discipline me for having my shoes off in a public park.
I got news for you, Joe Storm, you are sucking off the government, burning gas money, using publicly funded resources, shaking people up and more on behalf of the backs of the tax payers. You suck from the government much harder than me, buddy!

Officers say people act hostile or erratic to justify their actions so they can escalate the questioning - investigation
I didn't know making people feel uncomfortable was against the law. Everyone in America should be locked up for that
every cop is guilty of that
KP Nation I love this comment
Unfortunately today it is a crime for many people. That's why the police are now called feelings police.
Well spoken
@@christianrashotte1605 they make me feel uncomfortable
Shoes off at the park is an aggravated felony not to mention using suntan lotion.
When everything is a crime, we are all criminals.
Like #100
Like #104
Imagine if he was eating too! They might have to get the FBI involved! 😂👍
With a multiplying infraction of laying on the bench.
Call in the national guard.
It's a good job there's officers out there to put a stop to shoeless eye closing criminals otherwise America would be a lawless out of control country
😂😂😂
WTF
Haha😂
Yeah so do you @@markburleson5405
@@markburleson5405you do as well.
It's good to see him keeping that park safe from anyone closing there eyes lol!!
It's like a crack house once your eyes closed they rob you
Well, I don't consider this a bad interaction. If someone called/reported Travis was sleeping or appeared passed out on a park bench, the officer is required to check the situation out. If the officer ignored it and Travis had had a heart attack, the PD could be sued.
@@B_Bodziak It was pretty normal not too long ago for people to play and rest in a park. That's pretty much what they're for. Recreation...picnics...a little nap in the great outdoors soaking up some sun and fresh air. How sad has the country become that you can't even relax in a park without some doofus pig harassing you?
*their
"Why are your shoes off?" What a disgusting, horrific cop. Look how he crawled off when Travis asked what law he was breaking. I'll never understand wishing someone a good day to someone who just attempted to ruin your day.
Remember that it's best to treat cops as if they were rabid dogs. You want to remain calm, polite, assertive and especially show no fear.
It was sarcasm
It's called sarcasm. It's the same as when Christians say "I'll pray for you". What it really means is I wish you harm, or fuck off
Saying ‘Have a good day’ at the end of an argument is universal code for ‘Go f@ck yourself’
Wait until this officer discovers commercial air travel and people taking off their shoes.
New audit style. Lay down in a park and meditate to see how long the cops come and say you are on drugs.
Good experiment
ARE U SUGGESTING THE DREGS OF LEOS BAITINGS?
I think it's one of life's pleasures to sit in a pleasant (beautiful) park and drift off to a nap. This is another case of sad and tragic harassment.
I'd get noise complaint for snoring
Dear Officer Storm of the Shoe Police: Wow, I am so impressed with your level of caring for your fellow human being. I know you would have picked a bigger fight if he wasn't videoing, but hey, it appears that you are a wonderful person for knowing that you weren't going to win this one. So nice of you to walk away.
GIVE HIM A REWARD OF A "STRUT OF SHAM-E"
OINK OINK OFFICER STORM HOPE U REED DIS
How dare you spend time in the park on a nice day without getting permission from the police
imagine if he rang up the police station before he went to the park for permission to lay on a table with his eyes closed.. they would have him committed
Lol
Frank Potter What I think is going on here is an attempt to criminalize being homeless, a trend that is occurring in a few places. Rather than address the problem directly, they try to use these ordinances to keep them from sleeping on park benches or in public places. They just don’t care about the fact that they have no home to go to.
So the police are probably instructed to look for anyone who might be homeless. That’s why you get the statements that it looked like your eyes were closed, and asking about the bare feet.
:)))
Exactly, so damn ridiculous!! 😠
A perfect example of a cop using vinegar instead of sugar.. Imagine this "hello sir i saw you lying here and thought you may need help, are you alright? Citizen, i am well thank you. Officer, Thank you have a good day.... End of story, no need for pissing and postulating..
The problem in the exchange is the videographer's attitude. The officer explained why he checked on Video Guy
@@tc556guy , I agree.
.
Video Guy further states he has been thrown out of other parks.
He has not noticed the thousands of others who get to enjoy all the parks he has been thrown out of.
He is not considering why that is for everyone else, but different for him.
More like a perfect example of a cop using Cocaine.
@Ray Cain Yeah, it makes you wonder how many cops refused to take the bait.
Perfect
I have vascular and lymphatic issues in my left leg, so I’ve had to lie down on benches when I felt dizzy. I really feel that lying down under a beautiful tree in a park is something healthy and relaxing as well.
WHY SHOULD YOU BE ABRASIVELY "PROTECTED" FROM DEATH AT THE WILLING ARMOURMENTS OF KAREN-ING LEOS' POOLPAHS? ANY FRUITLESS FERTALIZER IS "SMART-PILLS OF COTTEN TAILS-TALES" HE TASTES AND RETORTS! THIS TASTES LIKE RABBIT DUNG WITHOUT DIAMONDS! HE'S NOW SMARTER! THAN 'AFORE HIS SOMILLIER SWALLOW (NOT A DINOSAUER'S HEIR.)
Wow I seem to remember people going to the park to relax and maybe TAKE A NAP
Use your head. Officer did not stop for no reason. This guy needed his ass kicked more by his parents. Hope you don't need the law.
Mark Pecoraro sorry your parents beat you bro. That doesn’t justify a person being smart or not though so think a little bit for yourself first.

Wow this officer was on a fishing expedition without the pole.
Love that line...
pole was up his ass
Police are always fishing.
Fishing without a pole?
So... he was casting a wide net? >ba-doom tsst
Well the pole was up his ass, but we don’t shame people for tickling their fun button.
“Why are your shoes off?” What?!! That’s law enforcement?
He's lucky he wasn't wearing finger socks.
Thanks for this. I never knew it was illegal to close your eyes. Is it okay to blink?
Joe Shmoe 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀not blinking!!
Obviously you've never heard of the blink police?
I'm not sure what rocky been living under but yes there are statutes on how long you can keep your eyes closed. Especially towards the end of the month when the quotas are due.
It has been proven that nefarious thoughts are generated while our eyes are closed so I'm glad this officer interaction took place last thing we need is someone like Travis having nefarious thoughts.
NO
Yea...just keep it to a minimum, no excessive blinking!
The cops after being on the job learn two things from their fellow veteran cops.
1 talk to everyone as if they are a piece of shit right from the start of the conversation.
2 how to lie cheat and steal while hiding behind a badge that guarantees you will be protected by the other cops, the mayor, the judges.

What’s this world coming to when you can’t even take a nap at park to relax without the cops bothering you bad stuff I would of been mad way to keep your cool
Who sleeps at a park? Everybody knows you are supposed to be smoking dope and getting drunk while making a ton of noise.
Robert DH and kick off your shoes how fucking dare you FFS
That's reserved for the cops .
A friend and I were at the state park in the spring at a pavilion with a fire going in the fireplace jamming acoustic guitars and singing. He had a beer and I had my medical mj oils. So a park ranger came by checking on the place and went along. A while later 2 different park rangers show up expecting to bust us saying they got a complaint about some homeless bums drinking and smoking pot. I show them my medical mj card and they didnt even bother looking at my oils setup which I offered to show them they said naaa. They let my friend off on the beer. At the time I had my truck up in another parking lot because that one was covered in snow. I told them where it was and they realized we weren't even close to homeless lol. Next time I will play some songs for them too. Breakin the law, Breakin the law ..............
@George Glass birds shit all over them also and many other sources of nasty dirt. Pesticides and much more. Dig in bro.
@George Glass lol keep your family away from those picnic tables bro. He coulda been pickin his nose also or scratching his ass and wiping it on the table. Thats easily way worse :-P
Maybe sleeping on a bench might be an issue, but that business about having shoes off is NUTS.

That is absurd! The park is free to lay wherever you want to. That is absurd that the officer told him to sit up and not to ly down😳🤪
Nothing makes you feel more secure than when a cop walks up and immediately starts lying about what you're doing.
I don't think he was lying. It sounded like the guy was sleeping or passed out.
@@heatherknowles6689 I didn't know it was illegal to lie down. I do that at the park all the time.
academy trained SPLIT SECOND REFLEXED, QUALIFIED IMMUNITY, JUDICIALLY STEROIDED NORMALCY.
I was homeless like 15 years ago. Completely rekt one night, passed out in a residential neighborhood by a public lake. Cop woke me up in the morning because someone reported a possible dead body. I was apologetic and forthright with info, and he was just happy I wasn’t dead and went on his way. Simple as that. It was a much needed restoration of faith in humanity at the time.
I fell asleep while hanging out a ground level window at my sister's house in a nicer neighborhood of the Salem suburbs. I had a tough day the night before after receiving a medical procedure. I was laying my head on the window ceil and had done that during the night so that I could have a smoke with out having to fully dress and go outside and to not get smoke in the house... The old window comprise. Well after finishing up the smoke I obviously fell asleep while still partially out the window. I was inside my own home, no part of me was dangling out and the window was like 2feet off the ground. A neighbor called police at like 6am believing me to be a burglar or dead or something not good. I awoke terrified because it's a cop for 1, and hes talking so loud he was gonna and did wake up my whole family, and as I was at my sister's house would have pissed them all off at me for getting the cops called and they don't want me to smoke in the house, hence leaning out the window in the middle of the night. The cop understood the ridiculous nature of the neighbors calling 911 for a neighbor asleep in the house, and he was cool about it but he woke up my whole family and I was immediately bitched me at for something they never smelled, didn't bother them at the time I did it and hurt no one. But that neighbor that called must have a really sad and boring life. Who calls and emergency line over a guy alseep in his family's house
Mind your business copper.
The cop could have just asked if you were alright then left. I don't believe he had the best intentions for you.
He did then the guy was being an asshole to the cop
@FRAG OUT,FIRE IN THE HOLE! you should see the knock and talk of that one duo cop, that handcuffed a mother and her daughter. Then proceeds to tell the daughter of the mother to uncuffed her while lecturing them that he can do as he please. Mind you the mother ran out of the shower with only a towel to confront them.
He thought he was homeless & was going to force him to leave if he was. Soccer moms been feeling uncomfortable he said.
Wonder the out come had you not been recording...
they NEVER DO.
Heaven forbid you would be comfortable in a park.
Mature - doesn't see what took place BEFORE the cop arrived, right? Grow the F up, dude. You didnt' see what was attracting the cops attention.
@@sanfrancisco9661 obviously wasn't a broken law, whatever it was.... how dem boots be tastin'?

Life has got weird lately, You can't do anything anymore, not even close your eye's in a park.
phillip ... people are so up tight about every little freakn thing
Indeed.
....and it's only gonna get "weirder". This supposed "war on terror" is shifting to a war on what runs against, or even across, the grain of social norms. People are being groomed to turn others in when what they do isn't considered normal, so they can be treated like a potential domestic terrorist.
Just wait until America becomes an authoritative socialism, which it is really close to being. Shit's gonna get a LOT weirder.
There's so many laws that they can find something on anybody at anytime.
Took off your shoes in a park? It's a gateway activity leading to relaxation, enjoyment and better life experience. shame.
Also, drugs.
Cop logic: "Why aren't you at work? Who do you think you are....hanging around in the park with your shoes off getting all comfortable like you own the place, while there's other people who don't have the luxury of lounging about? You know you could just relax at home right? Can't you just do that in private? I mean really, you're harassing and abusing every good person who's working right now who sees you laying around taking it easy. Do you have some ID? Maybe a note from your mom explaining why you aren't at work and why you think it's ok to enjoy yourself in public? Where are you going after this? Where were you before you came to my park? Do you have any weapons? Cause I really don't like citizens with weapons, cause my safety is waaay more important than yours. There's bad people out here in the world. If you're not working, we would appreciate it if you would stay off our streets. You're out here, by yourself, obviously up to no good. Every citizen is a criminal, we just have to figure out what you've done."
He is referring to Exodus Chapter3, the place u r in is a sacred place. Take off your shoes!
maybe the cop thought with the shoes off the regular joe could of been waitin on a hooker note sarcasm
thats not all he was doing he was sleeping on the picnic table! sorry, parks are not homeless shelters, if he wants to sleep somewhere, thats where he should go! parks are for law abiding families, not douches like this!
What he really wanted to say is "move along" he picked the wrong dude.
This is actually very profound. Inforcement of the the social norm
cops really hate it when talk at them the same way they talk at you
They hate it because they mostly get away with it because most people get a little orgasm demonstrating their obedience & innocence by submitting to interrogation.
Most controlling assholes do
Ya, that cop seemed shook. He really acted out, huh?
That cop look like he was a snitch when he was younger in skool
Casey Linares More like someone that they bullied and decided to become a cop to get revenge LOL

Yeah. A lil piece of crap .
I love how the guys' eyes "looked closed" to the cop. One time I was pulled over at 2am, for absolutely no reason other than driving an old car at 2am. When I asked why I was stopped, he told me it "looked like my rear plate light wasn't working, or very dim." I got out after he left, and it was bright as the morning sun.
Had this happen several times over the years. One time the light was out. Not that it ever helps me, but my dad was a lawyer, says it happens all the time when they're fishing
That happened to me too.
Cops have been doing this kind of stuff to me and people I know, for years now. Super weird and gross. You know there plenty of people involved in all kinds of crime in that city at that very moment. Some crime pretty serious and dangerous. Talking to a guy in a park minding his business and has his shoes off!!! Omg...red alert... This is the things that they're spending tax dollars on in Idaho and all across the country
IMAGINE THE LEOS CONSTERNATIONS-NATIONS WIDE !WHEN 'HONLY FINDING A MATCHED PAIR OF EMPTY SHOES A-HANGING ON A PHONY GUY WIRED CROSSIN' THE STREET! duh-ACADEMY TRAINING MANDATES WHEN IN DANGER OR IN DOUBT! YELL AND SCREEM AND DASH ABOUT!
Wow. He's right to ask if there are laws about how to behave in parks because then it's simply cops targeting what they don't like. It doesn't matter if you think this guy is rude. The law doesn't require us to be likeable, only that we adhere to the law. The cop was fishing and was held to account for it.

Why do citizens have to have these interactions with police and be questioned while relaxing in a park in the first place?
Maybe they could just leave people alone to begin with.
IT IS NOT the nature of ANY cop to "just leave people alone!" From the moment they are handed the badge and the gun, their bodies take a deep breath and they mumble to themselves, "Ahhhh, at last, I am a God!" 😀😁😂🤣😃😄

He was just checking on him dont see the big deal here
mcdonaldswarfare3 asking if he was ok is one thing, but pushing the issue about his shoes and such is going too far. He was just being a dik and harassing the guy.
I don't consider this harassment. I fell asleep at a public park one time, and a cop came by just to see if I was ok, he even offered me cold bottled water. Cool cop.
Jim Aragon It takes proper training to approach people in a civil manner.
Travis Heinze yeah,I agree
That's not what happened here now was it? cops job is not to protect and serve citizens SCOTUS has already ruled this their job is to enforce the law and lie legally to gain information which is why you don't speak to police.
No officer is innocent i don't cvare what you witnessed police are a mafia that's hired by the government now and has been commiting violent acts and murderer across all lands they need to be disbanded and disappear people are way too ignorant and stupid today.
did you suck him off after that and treat him like a real hero shd be treated, with nice warm soft mouth to blast off in? After all their job is just oh so hard
Scrappy Doo sure. Anything valid to say? Or just ad hominem attacks that tell us all you really have no valid argument or factual information to present in this argument. You're gunna have to try harder princess

Sick, fucked up, whatever. Just let him go. This guy wanted a confrontation. So obvious
Travis that was BRILLIANT how you handled that. You have come a long way.
a long way from what? being a absolute total pyscho. He didn't handle anything well the cop just left. He realized this guy was totally gone but wasn't a danger to himself or anyone else so he let pysch be.

LMFAO
Magic is all well and good just don't go burning down any buildings.
One decent cop and you try and encourage him to do something both of use would regret for the rest of your lives... ask yourself this. WHY?!
This is a case of enforcing one's idea of decorum, or manners, rather than enforcing the law.
Seriously.
If there’s a next time, maybe tell the cop he dresses like shit.
That officer was so far out of line. He needs some definite attitude adjustment. 🙏
I was fine with the part of him checking to see if hes ok but when he utter those words" this is not your house " then it went into a different issue
I agree. That part was way over the top. I'm glad that they both were able to deescalate and keep the conversation relatively calm.
Cano I agree with you...that is where so many here fail to understand it was not a welfare check.
The different issue is the aggressiveness and lack of respect. Badged folks have forgotten how to be human, have become convinced of the righteousness of their authority, no matter how much they abuse it -- have become tyrants.
Yes desine...that is exactly the problem. When you start saying what you expect for standards versus what is legal authority has become to concentrated. He is on duty to enforce not give his standards.
Yes. It was the dumbass cop instigating a fight!
Sounds like the policeman was just checking to make sure you were not a drug addict passed out on the picnic table
didn't see right at the beginning, but yes, it did look like the policeman was just doing a check to make sure nothing out of the norm was happening. the officer probably wasn't trying to be intrusive, but if the man was dead, or passed out, then the policeman would have done things a lot different.
@j t first of all before you cite laws, learn how to spell your words and second the Officer spoke to him in a kind way for less than 4 minutes. What is wrong with that? Do you know how stressful being a cop can be? Then you have ass holes who want to talk shit to you, when your just making sure he's not dead or passed out on dope. This cop absolutely deserves his title as an Officer by what I just saw, you people have the foresight and intelligence of infants.
john smith none of his fucking business if the guy is a drug addict.
Conner Martin you hope you end up buck naked on a train next to these people going to a concentration camp? That's not crazy at all.
Obviously bored cop looking to lighten his day with a little harassment
The interaction was hilarious. The officer seemed to start to flex his authority, then there was a sudden shift where officer Storm just wants to leave.
A well fare check doesn't seem like any kind of unreasonable contact. This could have been a totally different story if you had overdosed, heart attack, stroke, diabetic coma, shot, stabbed or knocked unconscious interesting he didn't even bother to try to ID you once he saw you were ok and coherent even though you were rude and confrontational.
Lewis Cleveland BUT he didn't. Just enjoying a nice day in a public park not breaking any laws.
Yea but didn't so that cop should of appaulagised the man relaxing would of said thanks ,an that's all ,but no that cop wanted make up his own law ,ha,ha, an mad himself look really stupid ,dumb ass.

@@lindenvillage2474 he didn't guess what not all cops are dirty just the ones media shows because it's easy to show. The cop did nothing wrong but the guy was hostile for no valid reason. Look at his YT channel and you can see he looks for trouble and ways to cause an uproar. Im not saying dirty cops don't exist I'm just saying that one is not.
don't close your eyes in public!
yeah and put your shoes on cause its weird bahahahah this is so stupid its funny!
And when the man siad he was ok, the LEO should have left. Simple as that.
Guys reaction is normal. Cop shouldn’t be trying to shake someone for legal activity.
His blinking was slow. They should have used a blinkalyzer on him... to be sure he's not blunk.
As much as I dislike bullies, this bully probably thought it was some druggy homeless dude making home of a park bench.
Pigs cannot do whatever they want to you! Would you allow them to do whatever they want to you and family??
A few months back I had officers walk up while I was sitting in my lounge chair snoozing at the park after a bbq and had them ask the same question "are you ok?" I just said "I sure am" with a smile, and told them I was snoozing with a full belly. I never had any reason to start being a prick with them. They apologized for disturbing me and I held up a beer and offered 'em one from the cooler. They politely refused and just smiled and walked off.
what if you were lying on a park bench with your eyes closed because you were passed out or heart attack or OD or something. Would you then want the cop to approach you to see if you were ok or not?
Wait you can drink beer at the park?!!
Yeah, its bad nowdays. The dead and dying laying all over the place.
according tot he rules of this park you wold have been arrested. Your park must have different rules
White folk....wow..
It sounds like he’s hassling the officer and being disrespectful to another person as well! Be humble, respectful, and kind to others! Also, tables are meant to be eaten on not laid upon. I personally don’t like the idea of someone’s rear end or feet being placed on an area which I will be having a meal! Be respectful of others if respect is also what you’d like!
Gary Silva yeah i get it....but do u think we need a policeman to enforce this? do people need to be arrested for relaxing on a bench? thats the issue.
THAY WILL NOT LET ME COMMENT Y T
after He identified himself as Storm I almost expected him to follow it up with trooper.
He was getting ready to harass him til he saw that he was videotaping him.

I think the cop was in the right to check if the guy was ok, but once the guy said he was fine, cop needed to be on his way.
Nope, not an excuse. Unless he had a medical emergency the cop should've kept on walking. Nothing to see here.
@@davidmccarron2903 how would he know if he had a medical emergency if he didn't check to see if he was ok?
@@johnturner9924 Maybe, but I usually would approach an officer directly if 1. I couldn't communicate. 2. I couldn't call 911 for paramedics. 3. If I was obviously sick, shot, bleeding. But your point is valid as well. It's hard to assess the situation. Thanks for your reply. Have a good day!
@@johnturner9924 then call the fire department! Simple
David McCarron the choice of who you call is based on your ability to make a choice. If your ability to make your own choice is removed by medical emergency, the only way someone would know that is by asking if you’re ok, unless you are flopping around on the ground.
I am torn on this. One the one hand, I have no issues with a police officer walking by to see what's up. Yes, in this instance you were just chillin' and airing out your feet. But the park by me always has druggies and drifters hanging out there and my kids don't like going there. I always hear them talking about the "creepy guy by the swings" or "the woman wearing a trench coat" in 95° weather throwing up in the trashcan. Me and several other families will go through the park every Saturday cleaning up and repairing things to keep it nice. We even power wash all the benches and playground equipment when they need it. So yes, I want *EVERYONE* to enjoy the park. But finding whisky bottles, empty cigarette packs on the ground, etc. sucks. And here's another little observation I made: you are very combative, talk in a very disrespecting tone and are sarcastic just about the whole time. If he walked up and ask you how you are, just tell him what you're doing and show a little deference. Man, you'd be amazed how just doing those two things will lower the tension level and grease the friction. But you don't. You get all bowed up and flexed like a tiger about to strike. I try to put myself in the cops shoes and I can tell you that I would be a little pissy with you too. Contrary to what you believe, it's not all "us verses them" all the time. That is enough typing.
SixStringLove Guy show deference??? Why?? 😂
Very wise my friend. Well said
At least you didn’t encounter “Officer Safety”. He’s the most dangerous cop on the farce.
Look i know all about how cops harass people. But the cop was just asking the guy are you ok. The man could have said yes iam fine. I was just laying out.
Gutta Beezy, you only see this rude guy’s version of this story. You have no idea how this started, or if he “being normal.” You just assume that because of the way HE posted this.
Grace OMalley Grimm hey shut the fuck up
@Gutta Beezy I bet u want give me your address and call me a dumb ass. Look I've been harrassed by cops most are ass holes. But this guy was obviously trying to be a pain in the ass. Hell people like this is why they take shit out on people. This cop actually was pretty damn nice and respectful. Cops are allowed to ask if you're ok! That's the time you say yes iam fine. Now then if the cop says can I see you're identification? Then you can say he is harassing and looking for something. Hell I dont like this video because it's so fucking pretty. I wish this was how cops acted. Instead they walk up ask you what you're doing , what you're name is, do you have an ID . So they can run you're name. Then when they dont find anything they start purposely trying to provoke you. So they can body slam you or taze you then arrest you. But in this case the cop is simply asking the guy or you ok? Not what the hell do you think you're doing like most would. Then this smart ass guy instead of just giveing a sright foward answer. Thought he would take advantage of the conflict with cops at the moment and get him a few minutes of RUclips fame. So he purposely argues with the cop like some know it all citizens rights activists or some shit. Its these (DUMBASSES) that make the real harrassment cases not took seriously. This cop litterly put up with this prick who probably has some (iam privileged attitude) for a while and never lost his cool never got smart and was professional the whole time. Plus never once asked for an ID or anything. Iam sorry but for one a picnic table is for eating on. Not sleeping on. So if you see a man sleeping on a table in a park most people would think to there selfs " man I wounder if that guy is ok" but being a police officers job is to ( first perfect and serve) he is supposed to check on someone sleeping on a device that is not the normal thing for people to sleep on in public. Hell if that guy was drunk or high and overdosed on that table and people would have known that cop seen him but never checked on him. Guess what????????? We would be watching a RUclips video how ( COP SEES MAN LAYED OUT ON PICNIC TABLE AND DOES NOTHING TO CHECK ON THE MAN) thin the follow up story would be ( HOW DOES A COP WHOS JOB IS TO PROTECT AND SERVE. SEE A MAN SPRAWLED OUT ON A TABLE AND NOT CHECK ON HIM) then the family would say the police department owes them an explanation for letting there family member die. How can anyone see some one laying in the middle of a park on a table and not at the verry least ask if there ok. So stop with the petty ass bullshit. The people that are a (DUMBASS) like you are really starting to reach for shit now. Call out the ones doing the real harrassment. You're takeing away from them. Really bro! If this is harrassment then God be with you. Because there is no were in the world you're going to find a cop ( harassing) someone as little as this. P.S.- YOURE THE DUMBASS.
daniel beavers you’re a dumbass 😂😂😂 cops are pigs, all they do is harass people. tell me is it illegal to have your shoes off in a park? is it illegal to lay down in a park? tell me? and that answer will tell you if you’re a dumbass or not.. just think about it.
Gregory Detzner why exactly would you say this, this means and does nothing
Didn't know it was illegal to blink.
This guy, whether he was a resident enjoying the day or a transient enjoying the day, was or had recently been asleep across the bench by his own words
You can hear him yawn and deep stretch at the end.
If the officer was being disrespectful, rude or aggressive then I’d see more of a problem
Also just because something isn’t violating a law doesn’t mean that it isn’t violating a ordinance or lesser city code
Community outreach and protecting the public interest is supposed to be part of an officers duty
Anyone who wants to see a glorious utopia where the cops are always evil douchebags that are out to harass the innocent, where the public prefers minimal police interaction yet are furious when the police aren’t fast enough to arrive and where druggies, homeless and “free inhabitants” bring down the integrity of entire towns, I encourage you to visit parts of San Francisco, East Oakland, Eat Palo Alto, Santa Cruz, Central Sacramento and Berkeley
You’ll love all the trash and drug paraphernalia in parts of these towns, all the people asleep on the sidewalk and all the tents in what used to be at least decent places to bring your family for the day.
If this guy was homeless, there SHOULD be places ~in town~ that could attempt to assist him in life and get him back on his feet including temporary housing, job training and job placement assistance in addition to any counseling that a person MAY need if applicable, and if he isn’t homeless then he has no reason to be an asshole to the officer in the first place. Just talk to him and get the situation sorted out real quick and move on
Officer didn’t even ask for this guys ID (insanely common just to make sure the person isn’t wanted on any warrants or anything) officer just tried to see what was up with the (recently) sleeping ?transient? and trying to help keep the LC Valley from becoming the next Berkeley, CA or downtown San Francisco... or New Jersey... or Chicago
I’ve been approached 2x in my life for suspicion. In New Jersey waiting for my friends uncle to move a piano, and once in Davis, CA for walking around my friends apartments parking lot for a looong time
Both times police explained why they were there, I explained the situation and they set off on their way satisfied that I wasn’t(edit) casing the area
Simple and civil. Life often is, even if we are tried to be shown the opposite
Gamer. Only if the blinks are too slow. They should have used a blinkalyzer on him... to be sure he's not blunk.
@@TheMulToyVerse not always the case, is it ??? A lotta videos about cops acting as thugs, and you can see it in their faces that they enjoy intimidating and bullying people around. Give some people a little power and they take it to the max. And for what?? To prove they're the better person ? Don't think so. Cops are paid to serve and protect, not harass and bully cause their minds are those of Neanderthals
Rick Leblanc
I agree that that there are far too many examples of cops being assholes for no reason... are you saying that this is one of them though? Cause this one, like plenty of others didn’t give me the slightest feeling of that.
I’ve encountered 2 jerk/asshole cops (different from my “suspicion” encounters) but I’ve also had numerous interactions with cops just doing their jobs (traffic stops, at events, etc) that were just decent people.
Most cops aren’t cruel power-lording jerks out for a superiority fix. The ones that are need to be dealt with and I’ll always side against them, but what about this officer was so wrong? When did he give the man an attitude or restrain him?
You know everybody seems to worry about the Zombie Apocalypse. Forget that! It is the idiot apocalypse that I am worried about. This is video proof they do exist and they are multiplying at an alarming rate. No I am not referring to the polite officer.
Steven Phillips It's yourself. Open your eyes.
Travis Heinze
Listen this guy isn’t the problem. He is doing a job the way he was trained. Any problems are created above his head. He is trying to feed himself and probably a family. Don’t take out your objections on him
Steven Phillips their here thier here help!!!!!
Steven Phillips and the people actually wonder why they get shot by the cops lol
Agreed. The homeless dude is a prick.
Man sitting at bench minding his own buisness....
Officer: this ain't your home.
Man: so what are the rules in the park?
Officer: you kinda behaving erratically.
This cop is so dumb omg him talking hurts me...
That cop just doing his job. He probably seen tons of people passed out on H and meth in the day. Wanted to make sure you were alive and not be a creep show for the children.
If I took my kids to a park and saw a guy sleeping on a table, I would take them and leave.
BusLady that's your choice lol at least he wasn't shot lol
@@1010glock Then get a sleeping bag and sleep under a tree.
@@buslady6695 You know a long time ago, we used to nap outside all the time, in any location. As long as it was safe to do so.
Why are you offended that someone wants to do the same thing everyone else used to do?
too late he ended making himself a creepshow for children in this video!
So i cant take off my shoes at a public park?
SteelStreet2.0 steelmax A cop can't take their shoes off while on duty. So they enforce their own standards on other people.
Travis Heinze thats not good
No
Next they'll be telling people they can't wear bathing suits at the beach.
SteelStreet2.0 steelmax It is against the laaa 🤣🤣
Travis..... I reviewed your channel....it looks to me that you have the cops called on you often..... why do you think that is? ..... LMBO..... pitiful
Jay Thomas Reset Post the video uploads to a calendar. You are ignoring the time in between.
Forvacia have a nice day
Travis Heinze He is doing his job. Barefoot laying across the park bench? I would have checked too. If you were having an attack or medical issue when he drove by the park and didn’t check on you, you would have tried to sue for him not checking your welfare. Don’t be an ass. He did his job!!
I've had so many of the same harassment problems I'm so sick of it.
I'm an AMERICAN, I reside in AMERICA, this is not GERMANY, or CHINA, or worse.....NORTH KOREA!
I'M A GROWN MAN, THANKS BUT NO THANKS, I CAN HANDLE MY SELF, THANK YOU OFFICER your free to go.
Germany??! Aint 1945 dumbass
How is he supposed to know whether or not you're another drunk passed out on a park bench if he doesnt come talk to you. Get a life dude! Let the man do his job.
shane terry He could have said that, if that were the case. Instead he said “it’s not your house” “ why are your shoes off.” The police officer. Oils have just said “oh good, you’re alive. I just wanted to make sure you didn’t need medical assistance. Enjoy your day, sir.” How easy would that have been?
Travis...... You were completely outta line. that OFFICER was simply checking on your welfare, and maybe if you were someone implicated in other issues at the park. He's doing EXACTLY what he is SUPPOSED to do.
It actually looked to me like the officer was trying to leave and the person filming kept him there asking silly questions. Picnic tables are not cots, and should not be slept on. Plus, with your shoes OFF? People eat on those things, that is nasty! And I also think it is great that a police officer would check on someone lying on the ground, or a table, or even a lawn chair or ANYWHERE for a long period of time. We all hear stories of cops AND civilians who walk by somebody passed out or dying on the sidewalk. Or stories of bodies lying in a place for days before someone realizes they are dead!
And how the $#%& is the cop supposed to tell if your eyes are closed from as far away as his car was? ''Well you're lying already!'' Oh, heavens no, you were not trying to start any trouble! Stop being so damn belligerent, the cop had a reasonable cause to check on you. You are just proving you are a jerk to cops and it is that kind of behavior that can put a cop in a bad mood he MAY take out on someone else. There are more good cops than bad ones, the news just rarely reports on the former. If a regular joe walked up and asked if you were okay, would you have given him attitude? That is all the cop was doing, and as he did not even come near you, I don't see why he owes you ANY explanation other than the perfectly good one he gave.
clearly if he wanted to give him trouble or cite him or make an arrest he could of easily just kept asking him question or for his ID this guy would of clearly got irate and give the officer cause to arrest him instead the officer didnt even ask for his ID which if he look out of place he has a right to ask for since as he said it is a problem area and he is allowed to check to make sure he isnt in the system, has warrants, or a sex offender but clearly the cop would be a better person if he just let these people do drugs and scout children how dare he do his job.
that man is stretching for some type of reaction. the cop tries to leave and he keeps right on nitpicking on the cop
SunShine Love the guy filming the officer is doing his job. The facts is the officer Started nitpicking first about the claim of eyes being closed. How ridiculous.!
Sun shine Love...Exactly!
@SunShine Love, watch the video again, cop started 'nitpicking' to begin with and as he was leaving stopped to do it again and finally buggered off while saying 'don't do it again'.. If the guy recording wasn't filming the event, it would have gone in the cops favour without a doubt.
With the above said, how does a cop get away with such a thing when he's got a body cam? Well, how does one know it's on or not, no indication from what I see of it being switched on at all.
Time people woke up and fast at that.
The thing that has bothered me for years is this: If you try to nap in your car by leaning against the steering wheel, I guarantee that someone will call 911 on you. I hear it on my scanner all the time. I call it "the slumper". I have a trademark on that word. lol
If I saw someone leaning against the steering wheel, by themself, I would check out their status. The reason being is that there was, in fact, an individual who appeared to be resting in their car who was actually dead. I rest in my truck when I'm tired. If someone checks on an individual out of concern, there should be no problem. Only looking out.
Jaw tooth So people who are concerned about you are bad? No one knows that you are resting or perhaps passed out or even had a stroke or heart attack.
Yes. People should mind their own fucking business. Go check their grandma if they want to see if someones dead.
I had a neighbor who had a stroke in her car and was rescued by someone calling the police. She was slumped against the steering wheel.
What bothers you about that? The fact they use an emergency line? That's bothersome. Some people don't realize there's a non-emergency number to call in those types of situations.
Cop - I know there's real serious crimes going on in the city but you're not wearing shoes is so more important 😂 😂 😂
Lock him up
Handling a real crime is dangerous though. This is the age where the officer's safety is more important than actually serving and protecting the people. I mean hell, the supreme court has ruled that the police are not actually obligated to protect the citizens, so why go solve real crimes when harrassing people is safer and more profitable?
@@raeishimura Well...........Gold in them Hills.....Citations...Prison. Judges, Lawyers. Cops, Correction Officers.........Gold...........$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Sunny they didn't ticket you because you are perfectly legal to do that.

Seb can’t walk in grass without shoes apparently. Might as well have a “no hippies allowed” sign.
Seb, you’re a fool. The officer did not escalate the situation. If the guy on the bench would have just said “hey, officer Storms, thanks for checking on me,? I really appreciate it” it would have been over. “Bye bye enjoy the rest of your day”
You got poop in your ears son?
The guy with the camera should get a grip. The cop was polite and respectful
NO. The cop was using that tone of voice because it gets better results. They are trained to do that. Aggressive behavior will make a person clam. But as soon as he knew the guy was not sleeping, on drugs, etc, he STILL tried to make up a story and get him to go along with it, classic cherry cop move.
Weight Loss at 59 It would appear to me that the guy was causing concern or upset to others in the park. Not sure where he was aggressive.
Maybe a sheltered life would call this aggressive behaviour?
You missed it. I am saying they are trained to use that tone instead of being aggressive. Because aggressive behavior makes people clam. And "concerned" is lame. Not what was happening here, give me a fucking break. Sheltered life, now there's a laugh.
Weight Loss at 59 ok no worries, not meaning to cause offence.
Have a good day
He's the Feelings Police, he wants to make sure no one is feeling uncomfortable! Since when can't you take your shoes off and have a snooze in a nice quiet park? He'd do well in North Korea!

from just the experience of watching all these types of videos I would say that remaining completely silent during these exchanges is one of the worst things you can do - I have literally never seen it go well when someone does that.

Why is that so hard?
Why does the cop need to bother people that are not breaking the law?
Why is that so fucking hard?
@@thomaschase7097
Well, they can't fucking help themselves
There are always to sides to every coin. I am just glad not to be in law enforcement in these insane times where every smart ass with a video camera wants to harass the police just so they can accuse the police of harassing them.
He was just asking you could have said "just relaxing enjoying the day have a good day sir".
MSotelo503 Oh yeah, when the cop says this isn't my home, I say, I'm enjoying the day. You are a very socially-experienced person.
MSotelo503 very true, he doesn’t seem like the type of person that has manners to be honest though.
"Sir", when did this cop obtain his knighthood?
Travis Heinze Well, the park isn't your home or is it? If it's your home then go figure.
You are reaching pretty far for views and subs. This is why RUclips is garbage, videos like these popping up.
"is there any reason your shoes are not on" he's not his dad, people are not dumb no matter how politely you spit on somebody's face it's still count as spitting on somebody's face.
These are adults they're dealing with why treating them like little babies? If you don't see anything is wrong in that well then there is something wrong with you.
This cop may have walked up to a homeless guy OD'd and gave him life saving attention and for all he knew you could be in the same boat, your disgusting
TheRight Is Right Exactly. But you get those ignorant liberals that think helping someone is an corrupted thing
frank brown it has happenes happens in my town almost daily sorry you need video proof of every day things police do to believe it. You are the guy that gets mad at the cop for entering without a warrent to give cpr to a kid
Matthew Hinds lmao
What's with you people and your "may haves"? That's not what happened and we clearly seen it not play out like that. If if was a fifth we'd all be drunk. Once he seen the guy had his wits about him and was not drugged he should've simply said I was just checking on you and you seem fine enjoy your day and this nice weather instead of "why are your shoes of" or "this isn't your house".
Chris Smith you get those ignorant liberals? Bro, let me tell you something.. I think that this cop did the absolute right thing, in every way, and he should be applauded for it. I also vote Democrat. Where is the connection for me?
I would imagine being homeless in a park is similar to being a black man in a store. “ He must be doing something wrong “.....
I think this is terrible. So now taking off your shoes in the summer and stretching out on a picnic table is cause for suspicion? 🤔
You handled it very well Travis.
Mysterious Ways the analogy of the black man is not correct, for this would have ended somewhat differently. A taze here, a fist or two there up side the head, a legal neck chokehold, a resisting charge, injury to officer charge, some drugs mysteriously appearing from the ether charge, an interference charge and the biggie armed charged, because more than likely a black man would be armed, they generally have at least two. One on the left and right sides of their torso. 😉 Be safe.
thumbs-up defender's How did anything Ken said give you the impression that he is a liberal progressive? I'm pretty damn Conservative, but if I'm out in the park my taxes pay for and I'm not disturbing anyone, I don't want some pansy bootlicker to disturb my time off!
thumbs-up defender's wow...that escalated quickly! Your labeling him “a bum” started it. How do you know what Travis was wearing? Answer: YOU DON’T. So shut the fuck up, pea brain.
Yeah I don't want the government messing in my life especially with my free time. What the hell is political about that? And if by some stretch one carves out a political niche for this situation then it seems more conservative than anything else.
JusticeAA and once the nosy cop saw that he wasn’t dead he had to keep making snide comments about him having his shoes off. Pardon me? I’m in a park and want to take my uncomfortable shoes off for a few minutes kick back and enjoy nature? What makes that something that a cop feels the need to hassle a person about.
Always keep them accountable . they are trying to ban you from doing anything im public. I was kicked out of a park for picnicking.
The officer was checking up on you. People do more than nap. Sometimes they die! If you lost consciousness due to a stroke or heart attack he might have saved your life.

Forgotten Lawrence Yeah you're right! I don't know how I got to these videos lol..but I did, I watched, and thought it was just ridiculous. People will video anything today just for views etc I guess
Ok, I live next to a park. Literally, I view the park from my (apartment) bedroom window. We have had the occasional homeless person or people park in the apartments lot and sleep in the woods, then hang out in the park throughout the day. A couple of them were severely strung out on heroin or meth and we have a lot of children in the neighborhood. I personally feel law enforcement needs to let these people know they have noticed their presence and let them know that they will be checking. It's sad that we have to worry about the safety of our children this way, not to mention, worry that they could be watching for theft opportunities. Our car's catalytic converter was stolen in broad daylight by one of these guys. He was caught trying to sell it to a shop.
I don't believe the officer was out of line, but honestly, the guy posting the video was being a pretty obnoxious a-hole, in my opinion. I know some officer's get full of themselves, but most typically, these are good men and women who have chosen this line of work to keep people in their neighborhoods, safe and help people in trouble.
so if a guy and girl are lying on blanket in the park together no problem. But if your there by yourself then it is a problem?
You might be a homeless menace to society. Cops spend a lot of time & tax payer dollars pushing homeless people out of sight.
The all American feelings police. I want to move to the US, I want my feelings protected.
This wasn’t a big deal. He was literally just making sure you were ok. You’re the one making the big deal out of it. That’s the problem with these videos. You act like a victim and then start making remarks towards the police. He was walking away and you started saying your unnecessary comments when he just said he was just checking to make sure you’re okay. Grow up dude.
