When I go into my local weed dispensary, I could care less if someone sees me go in or not. If you're that paranoid maybe you should not be smoking weed in the first place.

ignorant and/or stupid is a thing with people. take the second chick that came out asking the auditor not to record because people coming to the store did not want to be recorded. i am sure the irony and hypocrisy were lost on her when there is at least 20 cameras all over her building recording....
Come, come. Who among us isn't ignorant about a whole bunch of subjects.The ladies were clear and polite and were defending their customers and were intelligent enough to shift their thinking after being informed/educated; I would not call that stupid. This was an ideal scenario and outcome. Lazy punching bag going after the misinformed.
"I'm not distracting you" while she stands in front of the camera preventing the camera guy from getting his shots and giving unlawful demands. Your intelligence is distracting lady.
She never demanded anything, she just asked (which is completely lawful). Distracting is up to interpretation. She is allowed to stand on the property wherever she wants, just as the photographer is allowed to stand wherever he wants on the public sidewalk and film. She did nothing wrong, she just didn't know that he was allowed to I'm guessing.
ALL police dispatchers need to start educating callers about the 1A. If they did, life would be at least a bit easier for the auditors and the police themselves.
Chris Bowman, What ? Train the dispatchers properly ? Maybe a poster board close to the dispatcher work station ! With questions for dispatchers to ask ... what sidewalk is he on ? What kind of camera does it look like. Why law do you think is being broken ? Have you ever read the constitution? Have you read the FIRST amendment. Can you read ? These questions should resolve 90 % of the calls and eliminate MILLIONS of dollars of WASTED on needless PUBLIC SERVICES.
In my town they do but sometimes people will keep insistently karening anyways until they have an officer talk to them and waste time. They only talk to the karen though and never say anything to you.

They may be concerned because many of these cash only shops are being robbed now that weather is good. High security alert and trying to protect the interest and safety. You might also be a federal revenuer. I was surprised security was so kind. They will need to put up a fence if they don't want customers being filmed coming and going.
This place looks like it is the happiest place on EARTH 🌏 Thanks for showing the spot I would like to go there To bad they don’t understand the beautiful Constitution
When a person says they will have to get the "authorities" involved, they have admitted that they do not have authority over you. They must call the "authorities" that they are subject to. It's wonderful to live in a place of freedom, where no one has authority over you if your actions are lawful. The more people that start living in the place of freedom they were created for, the better this life on Earth will be. The true purpose of government is to insure that we live in peace with one another as best as possible.
when armed private security comes out onto a sidewalk, its dangerous, they clearly don't understand where their authority is... I also did not see a photo ID on his exterior, which most states mandate private security display on all but raingear, and at the minimum should identify upon request their name and company they work for as a requirement of their state license... I wish more people looked into their state laws on private security, and start filing complaints with the licensing agency to revoke their status, make them unemployable and lose their state license if they want to play cop or threaten to call them...
" My personal opinion" Karen and mighty mouse in the clown uniform has been smoking too much dope to believe they can control people on a public sidewalk. 😂
@@rogerdehaven5603 do you know the history of Marijuana? Not only is it not addictive, it has medicinal qualities. The only reason it was outlawed is because hemp can be used for paper, clothing, etc and the forestry barons did not want to lose money. Funny how alcohol is legal and it contributes to hundreds of thousands of deaths every year. Nothing personal, just trying to educate. 👍
That's one of the nicer looking dispensaries. They made some effort to theme it which isn't that common. I kind of get why they are a little paranoid with the amounts of cash they deal with.
A friendly wave and a bottle of water. That’s how these interactions should go, before you get all pissy that their is a “camera”! Nice job, keep up the great work!
I will never understand stores that are sketchy or skeevy, whose customers would probably want privacy and discretion....having street-facing entrances and parking.
'Why are you filming me?" Well, she walked up to someone with a camera. And that first lady coming back offering water and making sure you were okay? That was a nice way to make nice!
The lady smugly said: At this point I am going to go ahead and do what I need to do (I bet First Amendment RIghts was shaking in her boots) !! ROTFL -- HOW DID THAT WORK OUT FOR YOU LADY ?? Just go smoke another doobie and chill.
Just realized why so many people ask “where can I see this story” it’s probably so they can report false issues to RUclips in hopes that it gets removed. 🙄
I find it hard to believe that someone that fought for their cause for years ( legalization of pot), would call the cops on you for expressing 1st amendment. The same law that give them the right to have cameras pointed at sidewalk. Smdh.
The ladies asked polite. The fact that you have a right to film does not mean you have to. In the first part of this video the photographer just acted like a spoiled bully: "It is my right so I don't care about your feelings". Security guards and LEO's are fair game (photography wise ofcourse).
They did ask polite .I acknowleged that. for the purpose of the audit it's an exercise of Rights , not politeness. Appreciate your comment regardless. 👍📷📱🇺🇸
Those magic little words.. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.. Just another way of saying yes it's legal for you to preform your actions yet i don't like it so you must stop.. You should do everything you are by law legally allowed to do.. They will try to find a way to stop you from doing anything you are legally allowed to because THEY don't like it.. If you don't use your rights.. They will take your rights because they don't like your actions..
@@FirstAmendmentRights If you have 1 million dollars on your account, yes! Otherwise the bank probably will politely, at first, decline your request. But this is not the same as filming in public. In my country you have the right to film in public, but that doesn't give you automatically the right to publish. People have a right to object to publication. You could have simply not include those ladies in your video, because they clearly did not want to end up on RUclips or any other platform. You could have still make your point about public photography with the security guard and, if they had shown up, the police.
@@pingo.with.a.camera9897 If they (lawmakers) don't like your actions, in this case photographing in public, they (lawmakers) can take them away or alter them anyway, wether you use them or not. Rights are given and taken away all the time.
I give credit to both sides. The audit went super smooth. Once the dispensary made the call to sapd, they were educated and offered an olive branch at the end. (Bottle of water)
this happens all the time. watch any auditors videos and the business owners never seem to realize that the sidewalk is public and not their private property also i give the auditor here props for having the law on public photography printed as a hand out for the uninformed...
These are the kind of auditors I don't like. Hold the government accountable, not random businesses. Of course there are customers buying weed that don't want to be on youtube. Just because it's not illegal doesn't make you not a d*ck.
All in all, they handled it pretty well. Everyone was fairly polite, and once they checked the law they didn't give you any more trouble or do anything stupid. Good job Tropicana! If only everyone was that cool about getting educated. You also have to give her props for offering the bottle of water, she didn't have to do that.
The best music ever in an audit in thousands of video's I have ever seen. WOW!!! so many camera's?? I guess they are a "little" paranoid with no common sense with the employees. I assume they were humbled at the end.
If you were a weed store, and had the government up your hoo-ha, you'd be a little nervous too. They went inside, they learned the law. how is that not common sense?
I've NEVER once felt the need to demand what someone is doing in public however if I owned a business or worked at a business and i saw someone outside with a camera I would take that as an opportunity to promote my business in the best light possible. You never know how many 100's of 1000's of people will see the video. Free promotion is the best 😁
WTF is it with people who feel SOOO ENTITLED or BETTER-THAN (cops do this bs too and it pisses me off), that just because someone "ASKS NICELY", they FEEL that you are now OBLIGED and SHOULD COMPLY with the request they are making of you 🤔🤦😒...?!? In fact, citizens will call it "rude and/ordisrespectful" - the Criminals Operating in Plain Sights (C.O.P.S) refer to this as "noncompliance, causing a problem, disobeying a PO and also call it disrespectful". Where TF and How TF have people been raised or spoiled to the point where "ASKING NICELY" grants a presumed "YES" reply. Realistically, that's not a questing in THEIR INFLATED MINDS and EGOS, in their thwarted and obscured sense of entitlement in THEIR perception of "REALITY", the QUESTION was actually a COMMAND.
@@FirstAmendmentRights yeah you always do a great job. Unfortunately you can't fix stupid and you can't teach wisdom-challenged people. BTW, piggybacking off of the last portion of the audit you were making comments about their change of hearts - so, because you conducted yourself impressively well, I bet when they called the police and were educated like you mentioned, I can ALMOST GUARANTEE YOU 💯 that the employees gears started turning in their brains and they began thinking 🤔 "well, he never said he was here for anything bad or nefarious... it is 4/20 Nd we want to bring in customers and have a POSITIVE perception to the public... why did I (the lady) assume he was doing something bad?! ... afterall, we did have dialogue and he wasn't rude or disrespectful... what if the way I conducted myself today gains traction in the public and the potential customers start to associate the business with a negative stigma?! I mean, I don't know who he is and what if he has a large following..." Bet that's why she came, offered water and the security guard was probably talking to the staff too and heard their concerns so he ALSO wanted to make sure he didn't shed any negativity on the business
I saw one video of this where the auditor said "As you know marijuana is federally illegal, Im documenting this facility for a public report to make regarding the federally illegal activities that are occurring here". They freaked out and were panicking because they thought feds were about to raid them and shut down everything.
How many dirty camera are filming children on the sidewalk? I bet some of their parents don't want their children filmed by a weed shop. Holy moly these people don't think about anyone but themselves.

Ha! This was the best one yet, Chris! And so appropriate for 4/20. You do enough of these and folks will finally get it. We need a way to track the number of hours of cops' time translated into tax dollars you are saving the Citizens of California from having to come out. I love it. Great work!
They may be concerned because many of these cash only shops are being robbed now that weather is good. High security alert and trying to protect the interest and safety. You might also be a federal revenuer. I was surprised security was so kind. They will need to put up a fence if they don't want customers being filmed coming and going.
Ask them who watches their footage gathered by their cameras?
I think it's funny that one of the only times the cops tell the business you have a right to film its when a Weed store calls.
I find the weed stores very interesting. They are under so much governmental control, I'm sure they have a right to be a little nervous. (Just sayin')
@@werenotfree6412 Yeah, nervous about the government that has them under such control. The person with the camera is exercising no control over them.
This place looks like it is the happiest place on EARTH 🌏
Thanks for showing the spot
I would like to go there
To bad they don’t understand the beautiful Constitution
Im sure them bringing the water & the friendly wave at the end signified some understanding afterwards
When a person says they will have to get the "authorities" involved, they have admitted that they do not have authority over you. They must call the "authorities" that they are subject to. It's wonderful to live in a place of freedom, where no one has authority over you if your actions are lawful. The more people that start living in the place of freedom they were created for, the better this life on Earth will be. The true purpose of government is to insure that we live in peace with one another as best as possible.
when armed private security comes out onto a sidewalk, its dangerous, they clearly don't understand where their authority is... I also did not see a photo ID on his exterior, which most states mandate private security display on all but raingear, and at the minimum should identify upon request their name and company they work for as a requirement of their state license... I wish more people looked into their state laws on private security, and start filing complaints with the licensing agency to revoke their status, make them unemployable and lose their state license if they want to play cop or threaten to call them...
" My personal opinion" Karen and mighty mouse in the clown uniform has been smoking too much dope to believe they can control people on a public sidewalk. 😂
Pls don't blame their behavior on Marijuana, it has nothing to do with their ignorance. And btw, weed isn't dope.
@@michele2628 sorry I'll just say drug addicts and cover all bases. 🇺🇸
@@rogerdehaven5603 do you know the history of Marijuana? Not only is it not addictive, it has medicinal qualities. The only reason it was outlawed is because hemp can be used for paper, clothing, etc and the forestry barons did not want to lose money. Funny how alcohol is legal and it contributes to hundreds of thousands of deaths every year. Nothing personal, just trying to educate. 👍
@@rogerdehaven5603 do you drink?
Turned out well. She realizes she was wrong and made up for it. All anyone can ask for. Good job man,
Love it. Anyone can get weed in Cali, but they can’t deal with the idea that people aren’t wearing masks anymore! Sheesh.
That's one of the nicer looking dispensaries. They made some effort to theme it which isn't that common. I kind of get why they are a little paranoid with the amounts of cash they deal with.
BS
Great Audit! The security guard was uninformed.
Very few security guards are property trained.
Ive been to that dispensary .
The staff is professional and friendly. Just saying . I respect the 1st amendment auditors. Good job.
FLEX OUR RIGHTS 🇺🇲
BAM !! These people get owned !!🤣🤣
I'm sure after your first encounter they all went back inside, smoked some weed and then forgot you were even outside. 🤪
Cameras like every 12ft. Impressive
Rule #1 for auditors: Always respond to a question with a question or directive.
A friendly wave and a bottle of water. That’s how these interactions should go, before you get all pissy that their is a “camera”! Nice job, keep up the great work!
50 cameras on the building...lol
I will never understand stores that are sketchy or skeevy, whose customers would probably want privacy and discretion....having street-facing entrances and parking.
You need to master the use of the response, "So what?" It is the most appropriate response to 82.6% of what people say to you.
'Why are you filming me?" Well, she walked up to someone with a camera.
And that first lady coming back offering water and making sure you were okay? That was a nice way to make nice!
That was nice of her to offer you water. Just in case you have cottonmouth. Lol
She wasn’t being nice. She knew at that point that she made a poor impression on film.
The lady smugly said: At this point I am going to go ahead and do what I need to do (I bet First Amendment RIghts was shaking in her boots) !! ROTFL -- HOW DID THAT WORK OUT FOR YOU LADY ?? Just go smoke another doobie and chill.
😋
If your guest are so worried about being seen going into your store, maybe they should rethink their habit!
Just realized why so many people ask “where can I see this story” it’s probably so they can report false issues to RUclips in hopes that it gets removed. 🙄
"I'm gonna do what I need to do"....I assume what she needed to do was walk away with a destroyed sense of entitlement? Mission accomplished.
The whole building is like a giant camera, but everyone is worried about yours. And who knows where and who will see their footage. Goes the same way.
That security guards powerful frame and roughness would have had me shaking in my boots.
They're buying..drugs..and they Want ..... Privacy "😂😂😂😂😂
No different than buying alcohol
I find it hard to believe that someone that fought for their cause for years ( legalization of pot), would call the cops on you for expressing 1st amendment. The same law that give them the right to have cameras pointed at sidewalk. Smdh.
Just because you can does not mean you should. 1AA at a dispensary is a dick move. Go film the popo.
Appreciate your opinion 👍📷📱🇺🇸
@@FirstAmendmentRights You and your daughter give me the creeps.
Who called the cops?
@@galenicalhoover6508 Are you out there filming? Put your money where your mouth is.
The ladies asked polite. The fact that you have a right to film does not mean you have to. In the first part of this video the photographer just acted like a spoiled bully: "It is my right so I don't care about your feelings". Security guards and LEO's are fair game (photography wise ofcourse).
They did ask polite .I acknowleged that. for the purpose of the audit it's an exercise of Rights , not politeness. Appreciate your comment regardless.
👍📷📱🇺🇸
Those magic little words.. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should.. Just another way of saying yes it's legal for you to preform your actions yet i don't like it so you must stop.. You should do everything you are by law legally allowed to do.. They will try to find a way to stop you from doing anything you are legally allowed to because THEY don't like it.. If you don't use your rights.. They will take your rights because they don't like your actions..
If I went to my bank and asked politely for 1million dollars would they have to comply because i asked politely? Lol
@@FirstAmendmentRights If you have 1 million dollars on your account, yes! Otherwise the bank probably will politely, at first, decline your request. But this is not the same as filming in public. In my country you have the right to film in public, but that doesn't give you automatically the right to publish. People have a right to object to publication. You could have simply not include those ladies in your video, because they clearly did not want to end up on RUclips or any other platform. You could have still make your point about public photography with the security guard and, if they had shown up, the police.
@@pingo.with.a.camera9897 If they (lawmakers) don't like your actions, in this case photographing in public, they (lawmakers) can take them away or alter them anyway, wether you use them or not. Rights are given and taken away all the time.
The pot shop people handled this audit better than most church dud.Good one. G'day from Australia mate. Carry on regardless. 🇦🇺
I give credit to both sides. The audit went super smooth. Once the dispensary made the call to sapd, they were educated and offered an olive branch at the end. (Bottle of water)
this happens all the time. watch any auditors videos and the business owners never seem to realize that the sidewalk is public and not their private property
also i give the auditor here props for having the law on public photography printed as a hand out for the uninformed...
These are the kind of auditors I don't like. Hold the government accountable, not random businesses. Of course there are customers buying weed that don't want to be on youtube. Just because it's not illegal doesn't make you not a d*ck.
He was good and not rude and didn’t swear at the dispensary employees.
He's taking pictures in public. The end.
It’s fucking awesome when you got cops saying they got a war on drugs now you got them protecting the drugs
When they get this annoying and they say "in asking you to stop recording our customers " just tell her NO!!!!
Many of the people you encounter should have their hearing or comprehension ability checked. Repeating the same thing over and over to them.
These drug dealers all seem to be suffering from similar paranoia . They should really take time to sample some of their product and chill out
LOL
ended nicely, it was a nice gesture to offer water when they realized they were wrong
All in all, they handled it pretty well. Everyone was fairly polite, and once they checked the law they didn't give you any more trouble or do anything stupid. Good job Tropicana! If only everyone was that cool about getting educated. You also have to give her props for offering the bottle of water, she didn't have to do that.
The best music ever in an audit in thousands of video's I have ever seen. WOW!!! so many camera's?? I guess they are a "little" paranoid with no common sense with the employees. I assume they were humbled at the end.
If you were a weed store, and had the government up your hoo-ha, you'd be a little nervous too. They went inside, they learned the law. how is that not common sense?
@@werenotfree6412 The war on drugs is a lie.
*cameras
Screw the cannabis industrial complex free the weed
I've NEVER once felt the need to demand what someone is doing in public however if I owned a business or worked at a business and i saw someone outside with a camera I would take that as an opportunity to promote my business in the best light possible. You never know how many 100's of 1000's of people will see the video. Free promotion is the best 😁
1. She put poison in that water.
2. Stoners aren't awake at 7am
3. Asking the same question over and over won't change the answer.
WTF is it with people who feel SOOO ENTITLED or BETTER-THAN (cops do this bs too and it pisses me off), that just because someone "ASKS NICELY", they FEEL that you are now OBLIGED and SHOULD COMPLY with the request they are making of you
🤔🤦😒...?!? In fact, citizens will call it "rude and/ordisrespectful" - the Criminals Operating in Plain Sights (C.O.P.S) refer to this as "noncompliance, causing a problem, disobeying a PO and also call it disrespectful". Where TF and How TF have people been raised or spoiled to the point where "ASKING NICELY" grants a presumed "YES" reply. Realistically, that's not a questing in THEIR INFLATED MINDS and EGOS, in their thwarted and obscured sense of entitlement in THEIR perception of "REALITY", the QUESTION was actually a COMMAND.
Which is why I tried clarifying they can ask & I can deny that request
@@FirstAmendmentRights yeah you always do a great job. Unfortunately you can't fix stupid and you can't teach wisdom-challenged people.
BTW, piggybacking off of the last portion of the audit you were making comments about their change of hearts - so, because you conducted yourself impressively well, I bet when they called the police and were educated like you mentioned, I can ALMOST GUARANTEE YOU 💯 that the employees gears started turning in their brains and they began thinking 🤔 "well, he never said he was here for anything bad or nefarious... it is 4/20 Nd we want to bring in customers and have a POSITIVE perception to the public... why did I (the lady) assume he was doing something bad?! ... afterall, we did have dialogue and he wasn't rude or disrespectful... what if the way I conducted myself today gains traction in the public and the potential customers start to associate the business with a negative stigma?! I mean, I don't know who he is and what if he has a large following..."
Bet that's why she came, offered water and the security guard was probably talking to the staff too and heard their concerns so he ALSO wanted to make sure he didn't shed any negativity on the business
Well said 👍❤📷📱🇺🇸
New sub just came across you love how you do what you do
Thanks for subscribing Michael
☺👍❤📷📱🇺🇸
"Saw nah tah ah nah"
😂 If you know, you know...
I saw one video of this where the auditor said "As you know marijuana is federally illegal, Im documenting this facility for a public report to make regarding the federally illegal activities that are occurring here".
They freaked out and were panicking because they thought feds were about to raid them and shut down everything.
I find it so hilarious when people threaten to call the cops on people like that intimidates me 😂 😝
Great job!👍
Absolutely outstanding! keep up the great love from the east coast....
My old stomping grounds.
Santa Ana, CA usually has people that mind causes they know how fast stuff can go sideways.
Surprising.
next time tell them if they take down their cameras down you will stop recording
Trade off 😂
How many dirty camera are filming children on the sidewalk? I bet some of their parents don't want their children filmed by a weed shop. Holy moly these people don't think about anyone but themselves.
everyone should call that company & say I WAS WALKING BY & SEE YOU HAVE CAMERAS POINTED ON THE SIDEWALK & I DONT FEEL COMFORTABLE BEING ON CAMERA
The "leave now or we will contact the authorities.." should always be met with a punch to the nose
