      Although that I agree the rookie officer is a liability.. The problem is nobody has rights because nobody knows the rights as you're reading this. Comment? Can you name the 1st 10 amendments of the bill of rights? Let alone the five elements of the first. Or the principles of the constitution. The principles of law. Do you own a black law Dictionary? Supreme courts already ruled a man who knows not his rights. He deserves none of his rights
      . The problem comes that every citizen that has a US citizen is a Surety for the National Debt. And is therefore slave to the Creditors. They're not violate in his rights he's failing to execute his rights.As A Remedy in the Private. Private and public do not mix
      Notice to the Principal is Notice to the Agent, Notice that the Agent is Notice to the Principle.
      You cannot hold a party liable if you do not get proper notice.
      He did not properly Serve the corporate entity the police Department, The State that's underneath a Trust. Proper Notice!
      It is up to every American to know how to conduct an administrative process and know how to write out in the Negotiable instrument and should have one on file With the US Secretary of Treasury.

    The Police Officer, wasn't listening to what the Lieutenant was saying.

    This interaction really showed that the prohibition of recording in the Police station is ultimately about police hiding from public wanting to hold them accountable. Sean so clearly showed that, if the camera was hidden, they could do nothing about it, during or after the encounter. So that policy is really only geared towards folks openly recording. And as Sean has pointed out many times, folks with nefarious intentions aren't going to draw attention to themselves by openly recording. Thank you Sean for your work exposing this sort of BS.

      The lieutenant admitted that he didn't know how the complaint process works. That's because they never had any complaints there. They intimidated and frightened everyone away.

    So they agree that filming is legal, but they think they can trespass you for doing a legal activity of filming. They could make up any other excuse to trespass you such as all people with blue jeans must be trespassed, all people with sunglasses must be trespassed, or anyone with a hat must be trespassed. Ridiculous!

    • @tybrady1935
      @tybrady1935 Год назад +6

      Filming is not just legal, it is protected as the first amendment of the United States. Being trespassed for exercising a constitutional right is the opposite of what police are supposed to do. Honor your oath!
