"our customers pay 50 to 70 dollars for a steak and dont want to have to look at that" Disgusting!!!!! She is doing exactly what patrons of that restaraunt probably do to her on a daily basis. Look down at her. No empathy at all.
I don't know what's worse, people who hate Rights or people who look down on people they think are less than them? This guy encompassed both. Both are a threat to a good & free people.
@zillamesh Too many people in America are only one pay cheque away from being homeless. Perhaps when their lives are going well they should consider those who aren't doing so well.
6:43 "asking for money is constitutionally protected, it's free speech" "but we have a city audience that SUBJUGATES that". You got it straight from the source; local councils are subjugating the Constitution! (PS. Subjugate Definition: bring under domination or control, especially by conquest:)
This was how blacks were treated by many "enlightened" Americans in the 60's and 70's. They would passionately support African American civil rights in a general sense. They just didn't want them moving to their neighborhood, or swimming in their community pools... But they were welcome to enjoy civil rights in their own ghettos.
Gotta love how the cop asks for the case law, then when hou start to answer he cuts you off and says that city ordinance overrides the Supreme court case law you were standing on
He was trying to emphasize it was a traffic hazard to panhandle at busy intersections. Police and Fire departments do it for their fundraisers. The Common peasants cannot.
The only case law they're ever interested in and quote are those that give them the most power. They know they can violate your Civil Rights and most likely they won't have to answer for it.
If anyone wonders how dumb the average voter really is, that customer is a good example. He's the kind of guy that would sacrifice people's freedoms and civil rights in the name of feelings.

That's what gets me rolling 🤣🤣 I'm a vet, vet family, my buddy a vet, etc..... I totes understand but not over here. You can have your freedom a few steps that way. 🤡🤡🤡
I thought the same thing. I honestly don’t think they hear what they are really saying. She’s thinking that she’s politely asking him to not stay in front of the restaurant. In reality what she’s saying is Our customers who pay exorbitant prices for a steak don’t want you to be free and stand here, so go away.
Right, God forbid these people have to actually see what they purport to support. God forbid freedom come to their door step while they dine upon $60 steaks. Fucking revolting
I like how the customer's entire premise for having an issue is that they find seeing what they perceive as being homelessness with their eyes to be a "nuisance".
😂 you might have a slightly different view on that if you lived in a country with a higher unemployment rate. It can get ridiculous when there are multiple people begging in front of places like those.
@@francois853 You might have a slightly different view on that if you got hit by a drunk driver. Especially with the alcoholics complaining about not being able to drink and drive in peace because it is a nuisance to stumble past someone sharing the message: God Bless the homeless Vets

Is it just that you have a problem with people who enjoy a drink(even when they walk or Uber home) or is it that you have a problem with people enjoying things you can't afford, like that $70 steak dinner they were talking about? My point was that panhandling can get out of hand and the people who are just there to enjoy some of their hard earned money might not enjoy having people begging from them while they are doing so. I've seen popular restaurants close because it got out of hand. Obviously that wasn't the case here and they only made themselves look foolish by making the assumption that saying "God bless the homeless vets" was an attempt at soliciting a handout.

People don’t understand that these investigations aren’t just to educate law enforcement. It serves to educate the public as well. Amazing work, Jeff. You are an American hero!
I rolled my eyes when she said that a costumer, paying $70 for a steak, shouldn’t have to deal with that (a guy reminding them of our homeless bets). I’m waiting for them to roll back.
@VickyLupperger I agree; some of these folks have absolutely no idea how close each of them could be to falling down from their well off/comfortable level to something they not only don't understand but can't even fathom. Mr. Jack @ss Here's $5 My Friend Was Vet probably could not survive very well on the street and would be emotionally broken to have to ask strangers for help. He seems, to me, to lack a great deal of situational awareness (i.e. cardboard sign equals bum begging for $).
If they're charging their patrons $75 for a steak, then they have the $ to purchase more space for privacy.. but they surely don't get to dictate where someone stands in public i.e. "we're fine if he stands across the street". Girl who tf do you think you are?! 😂
I'd respectfully like to add, that by the fact that they eat meat in general, means they're lost souls and clueless in life to what "empathy", "love" and "compassion" means, to begin with. No surprise to me why selfish, spineless and self-centered people like these who are incapable of logic or critical thinking, actually feel entitled.
I gave 18.5 years of my life and ruined my body for this version of freedom and liberty. So many people that call themselves Americans make me ashamed to be a veteran of this country. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave died a long time ago. Jeff is one of the few remaining patriots.
Matt, there are so many Americans that support the Constitution and You. Please realize you're loved and supported by so many that don't know or met you. Semper Fi😊
Instead of flying off to another country to take away the freedoms of foreigners who never were a threat to us, you should have stayed home and defended our freedoms. But this is why they get you when you're young and dumb.
Thank you sir for that sacrifice, As a military wife, mother granddaughter, grandmother Aunt and cousin. I understand why.

I like how she keeps saying “we’re ok with it” as if they have any say in the matter. And how the officer’s narrative changed once he realized who you were. Went from being an arrestable offense in the state to a city ordinance violation to something he doesn’t have a problem with to he really appreciates what you do.

"I'll give you $5 to go down the sidewalk." Jeff, " How about $500 and I move down the sidewalk?" Angers me that everyone thinks he is homeless and panhandling. Bet the customer would never tell his veteran buddy, "Thank you for your service and god bless you." Customers meal is getting cold.
I'm a vet and I'm glad he's doing it❤❤❤ not only that he's probably single-handedly done more to secure liberty in the last few years alone than a multitude of our servicemen and women have through their whole enlistment.
Wrong watch more of his videos. Cops hate America and the constitution. They ignore that state and local "laws" don't trump the constitution. They are garbage all of them. There is no such thing as a "good cop"
More than any I've met before, during, or after my time in the Army. When was the last American war that was actually about securing freedom at home (in the USA)? The threat has been domestic for over a century.
It absolutely baffles the mind that somebody would try to complain about somebody holding a sign that says God bless homeless veterans. Damn brother you are the man and much love and respect
That cop was cool as all heck. He was the best cop I’ve seen so far! Seems like he is really down with the 1A community and that says a lot about a cop. I bet he’s wicked chill off camera too and doesn’t right many tickets or hem people up. Good for you officer, you get two 👍🏼👍🏼

Sgt. Garcia attempted to make us believe panhandling was illegal in all cases but Jeff backed him to the truth, which is basically aggressive panhandling which break other codes/laws. Panhandling isn't a crime in the land of the free.
Watching from the UK 🇬🇧 Nothing I like to hear better than the screech of verbal tires when a copper does a U turn once he knows he's up against someone who knows his stuff! Go Jeff,one education at a time !
Great to see good police officers. Officers doing what should be expected of police. Knowledge of the law and keeping the peace. Good on this officer!! He needs to be celebrated
Jeff, thank you, and your family, for everything you do to protect our Rights and help homeless people. I wish i could give you a hug of thanks in person some day.
That random customer came across like he was drunk, and he was the one causing a nuisance. And the arrogance of that woman in the restaurant with her "I'm fine with".... lady who cares what you're fine with or not, she seems like someone I'm happy not to know.
My brother was a Vet and needed help in Winter Haven. 911 was called and responders did nothing to save him. Polk County Fire Rescue only 0.8 miles and Winter Haven Fire Dept only 1.6 miles from him after 5am on a Saturday. The responders made claims of lividity and rigors and no life saving measures taken as should have been. The 911 audio was found in the trash bin and given to our Mom. You can hear my brother speaking on it. People involved not even disciplined, still going on calls!! My Mom was a witness!
As a citizen, veteran, and father , I can't thank you enough for what you're doing, Jeff. Your videos are educating citizens and public servants across the board. I watch your videos with both of my kids as a teaching aid about our constitution and interacting with law enforcement. I think what we enjoy most about your channel is that you highlight all types of interactions. The fact that we are seeing more and more positive interactions is a testament to your work. GOD BLESS OUR HOMELESS VETERANS!!
Correct… and I’m not blocking their entrance as she claimed. I always try to stand next to a bench, a trash can, a light pole, a parking meter etc because that part of the sidewalk is already blocked by a fixed object. That way any and all claims that I’m blocking or obstructing the sidewalk would be false.
@HonorYourOath Civil Rights Investigations I wasn't try to imply that you were. I was just pointing out that you were legal in every aspect of your endeavor!!!!!! Much love and respect for you and what you do!!!!!!! Thank you for standing up for everyone's rights!!!!!! God bless you, and have a HAPPY FATHERS DAY !!!!!!
Don't Don't have a place in winter haven that sells 50 dollars steaks just one of those town that makes up it own rules and the winter haven police department not even allowed to be involved in a major crime they have to call the sheriff department
Another great audit! It's a shame that citizens will be dishonest. You didnt panhandle until the officer told you panhandling was a ordinance violation. Asking him for to help you out was a nice touch. You never blocked the flow of traffic, pedestrian or vehicle. Always a gentleman and that is great to see.
Jeff you are one amazing guy. All my family are vets. Thank you for all you do bud. Both my Grandfathers were in WW2. My dad and uncle were in Vietnam. Even my dads mom was a nurse during WW2. All except my uncle have unfortunately past away but THANK YOU ! Thanks for bringing acknowledgement to homeless vets. Everything our Vets have done goes unrecognized, it makes me sick. If it wasnt for our vets we would be living in North Korea ! Fkn scum bags !
I also come from a family of veterans including my mother who was a ww2 woman's army core nurse who treated my dad for his injuries. She not only would have loved jeff but probably would have stood there with him. It's good to see that there are still some good people in the world who try to make a difference!
Thank you Jeff, I'm not a vet, not am I homeless, but I think what you're doing is needed. I pretty much say the same thing on all your posts. Be safe brother. ( Great talking to you on the phone a couple months ago, you taught me a great deal.)
Nah. Probably just one too many shots of liquid courage. Edit: I sincerely hope you were talking about the busybody and not Jeff. If not, you've just described your issues better than I ever could have.
The cop has only learned to leave Jeff alone. He still never told the restaurant that Jeff can keep doing everything he's been doing no matter how much they whine.
Also the cop failed to charge the callers with filing a false report. Blocking door? Panhandling? No evidence! Total liars! Abuse of emergency communications!
This restaurant looks like a place that needs an audit by spanky pants and tater salad. Their style of ‘window shopping’ would really light this place up. Great vid Jeff
love the line "my buddy was" what a melt his buddy would be embarrassed by his behavior and using his service. HYO is a Goat and amazing man, spreading the word of God Bless Our Homeless Vets. Our own history states that we gave promises to our Veterans that has yet to be upheld so we need more people to pressure this issue for our Veterans when they come home.
One thing I find disgusting is the lack of compassion for those that are less fortunate than they are. I could see people complaining if someone was trying to force people to give them money but obviously you're not doing that. Those complaining should be ashamed of themselves.
That cop absolutely would have pushed the panhandling and threatened you with arrest if he didn't realize you knew your rights early. Him even mentioning it proves that. If he knew the ordinance was overturned, why else would he even say it?
@TOYBOX2008 yet he still said it was against their city ordinance. When Jeff pointed out it was overturned, suddenly he talked particulars of when it could and could not be enforced. He took his shot, realized he was outclassed and backed down.
Why would I settle for $5 when I could have a hot Gatorade and a bag of chips.
Happy Fathers Day to all us Dads out there. God Bless 🙏
Happy Fathers Day too you to Buddy
How 'bout those Grandchildren?

@@HONORYOUROATH 😂 right! Bribery isn't cheap! 🤣
@@HONORYOUROATH😂😂😂
I think he was “drinking” his meal.
@@HONORYOUROATH LOOOL
That cop was intimidated when he realized whom he was meeting. Thank you, Jeff, and Happy Father's Day!
He should be after his Joffrion buddy got aired out on the media
Bless your lil heart Karen, atleast she didn't lie and so nice of her to give permission to go anywhere else.
Great work Jeff. Please dont let the Mississippi tyrants get away with anything. Take them to court!!!!
I left a message in Mississippi. Spoke to the mayor’s secretary Bamm
You meant the courts with traitors in black robes that gave themselves immunity?
definitely needs to follow up on those two towns.
they didn't just do bad, they did awful and said the 3 worst words. "i don't care".
We would all love that. I’m guessing that one will be a quick quiet settlement.
@@gregkasza1925 They would waste $500k fighting it before settling.
I'm a vet and I'm glad he's doing it❤❤❤ not only that he's probably single-handedly done more to secure liberty in the last few years alone than a multitude of our servicemen and women have through their whole enlistment.
Wrong watch more of his videos. Cops hate America and the constitution. They ignore that state and local "laws" don't trump the constitution. They are garbage all of them. There is no such thing as a "good cop"
More than any I've met before, during, or after my time in the Army. When was the last American war that was actually about securing freedom at home (in the USA)? The threat has been domestic for over a century.
This veteran agrees with you. Keep up doing god’s work.
ya all that sacrifice by you and all vets so the customer could sit there and make a complete ass of himself what a fool
Good grief. Happy Fathers Day to Jeff and all the Fathers watching
So, don’t be in front of the fancy restaurants. Screw that. Happy Fathers Day Jeff, know you are loved.
but but my patrons pay $50 to $70 a steak!
@@Digitalgems9000 Yeah, did ya notice that guy didn’t offer Jeff a steak to move down the sidewalk and from in front of their doors? 🤣😏
@@mariagrenat6147 haha
It absolutely baffles the mind that somebody would try to complain about somebody holding a sign that says God bless homeless veterans. Damn brother you are the man and much love and respect
Thats because the three letters 'God' is what triggers people spiritually ✝️🙏
That cop was cool as all heck. He was the best cop I’ve seen so far! Seems like he is really down with the 1A community and that says a lot about a cop. I bet he’s wicked chill off camera too and doesn’t right many tickets or hem people up. Good for you officer, you get two 👍🏼👍🏼
Wicked chill?? ...CRINGE!
@@JohnnyDanger36963 vicked chill as my man TOO APREE would say! That is not cringe at all that’s how you talk when your from Boston. We are all wicked chill in Boston! Why is that cringe? Please elaborate more on the cringness of that?
@@FuzzyPotato.1 too mu ch bootlickinb for a normal cop behavior.
@@JohnnyDanger36963 not sure what your even trying to say sir. Are you able to put a coherent sentence together?
@@FuzzyPotato.1 too much bootlicking for a normal comment. There,i fixed it for you.bootlicker.
Happy Father's Day, Jeff. God bless our homeless veterans!
The ignorance of the pigs at the end. Never ceases to amaze. Thank you for exposing these cowards.
Sgt. Garcia attempted to make us believe panhandling was illegal in all cases but Jeff backed him to the truth, which is basically aggressive panhandling which break other codes/laws. Panhandling isn't a crime in the land of the free.
These long ones always worry me.
WE Love you, Mr. Gray!!
So much lol
Watching from the UK 🇬🇧
Nothing I like to hear better than the screech of verbal tires when a copper does a U turn once he knows he's up against someone who knows his stuff!
Go Jeff,one education at a time !
I love how you call their bluff right in their face, happy fathers day....keep up the good fight
PD still failed to inform them, he’s allowed to be there. That’s the biggest misnomer is that if they’re chased off it’s ok.
I Love when Jeff challenges them right to their face !
Oh, and those damned liars from the business
I have a lot of friends who are vets. God Bless our homeless Vets.
Great to see good police officers. Officers doing what should be expected of police. Knowledge of the law and keeping the peace. Good on this officer!! He needs to be celebrated
Jeff, thank you, and your family, for everything you do to protect our Rights and help homeless people. I wish i could give you a hug of thanks in person some day.
You and Long Island Audit are my favorites! Glad you conduct your audits with respectful firmness
Mehhh LIA sucks . BAT is the man .
That random customer came across like he was drunk, and he was the one causing a nuisance. And the arrogance of that woman in the restaurant with her "I'm fine with".... lady who cares what you're fine with or not, she seems like someone I'm happy not to know.
I love when people remain calm in the face of someone who wants to argue, it really pisses them off.😂
I perfected it after working in “health care” for 20 years. “Health care” is not so much for care as it is for profit.
My brother was a Vet and needed help in Winter Haven. 911 was called and responders did nothing to save him. Polk County Fire Rescue only 0.8 miles and Winter Haven Fire Dept only 1.6 miles from him after 5am on a Saturday. The responders made claims of lividity and rigors and no life saving measures taken as should have been. The 911 audio was found in the trash bin and given to our Mom. You can hear my brother speaking on it. People involved not even disciplined, still going on calls!! My Mom was a witness!
- It’s a first amendment protected activity.
- Absolutely but in Winter Haven we have a city ordinance, so…
My brain can’t handle anymore 🤯
Happy Father’s Day Jeff. Keep up the beautiful fight of spreading the word and expressing our civil rights.
No Law Shall be passed that shall infringe on the Rights protected by the Constitution. The Constitution is the Supreme Law of the Land.
As a citizen, veteran, and father , I can't thank you enough for what you're doing, Jeff. Your videos are educating citizens and public servants across the board. I watch your videos with both of my kids as a teaching aid about our constitution and interacting with law enforcement. I think what we enjoy most about your channel is that you highlight all types of interactions. The fact that we are seeing more and more positive interactions is a testament to your work. GOD BLESS OUR HOMELESS VETERANS!!
To bad all the cops and right wingers who claim to LOVE AMERICA and THE CONSTITUTION do no such things
@@jamiefredrickson2560 most veterans are right wingers u clown
This is. Jeff's world and I love living in it ❤
It's amazing how all these cops think a city ordinance trumps the Constitution.
Judging from the traffic going into the restaurant, Jeff doesn't seem to be turning away any customers!!!!!!
Correct… and I’m not blocking their entrance as she claimed. I always try to stand next to a bench, a trash can, a light pole, a parking meter etc because that part of the sidewalk is already blocked by a fixed object. That way any and all claims that I’m blocking or obstructing the sidewalk would be false.
@HonorYourOath Civil Rights Investigations I wasn't try to imply that you were. I was just pointing out that you were legal in every aspect of your endeavor!!!!!! Much love and respect for you and what you do!!!!!!! Thank you for standing up for everyone's rights!!!!!! God bless you, and have a HAPPY FATHERS DAY !!!!!!
@@HONORYOUROATH So apparently the lady was telling a lie ? That's not very nice.
@@Jugalassas I wasn’t implying that you were implying . 😉
@@HONORYOUROATH but was he implying that you were implying that he was implying?
Keep doing what you do Jeff, your a good man and God bless our homeless veterans.
Ur*
Or "you're".
Our guest pay 50-75 for a steak we don’t want him infront of our business. We don’t like to see the poor when we spend our money 😂
It is not money. It is a fiat currency,jus sayn'😎
@@johnmichaelkarma fancy toilet paper that doesn't even work as good as toilet paper..lol
Then move to another country
Don't Don't have a place in winter haven that sells 50 dollars steaks just one of those town that makes up it own rules and the winter haven police department not even allowed to be involved in a major crime they have to call the sheriff department
@@johnmichaelkarmaFiat currency is literally all money on earth right now. It works just fine.
Another great audit!
It's a shame that citizens will be dishonest.
You didnt panhandle until the officer told you panhandling was a ordinance violation. Asking him for to help you out was a nice touch. You never blocked the flow of traffic, pedestrian or vehicle.
Always a gentleman and that is great to see.
So their ordinance supercedes the Constitution, and state and federal court rulings? Good to know.
Good PD interaction. Love that he named Long Islabd Audit.
That lady appreciates what he is doing, but just doesn't want to have to witness it.
Jeff you are one amazing guy. All my family are vets. Thank you for all you do bud. Both my Grandfathers were in WW2. My dad and uncle were in Vietnam. Even my dads mom was a nurse during WW2. All except my uncle have unfortunately past away but THANK YOU ! Thanks for bringing acknowledgement to homeless vets. Everything our Vets have done goes unrecognized, it makes me sick. If it wasnt for our vets we would be living in North Korea ! Fkn scum bags !
I also come from a family of veterans including my mother who was a ww2 woman's army core nurse who treated my dad for his injuries. She not only would have loved jeff but probably would have stood there with him. It's good to see that there are still some good people in the world who try to make a difference!
Thank you Jeff, I'm not a vet, not am I homeless, but I think what you're doing is needed. I pretty much say the same thing on all your posts. Be safe brother.
( Great talking to you on the phone a couple months ago, you taught me a great deal.)
politicians "panhandle" all the time.
This guy is suffering from a lifetime of people being to polite to punch him in the face.
He's never met me.
Don't be so hard on yourself "this guy."
@@StandWatie1862And you've never met me sugur plum.
Nah. Probably just one too many shots of liquid courage.
Edit: I sincerely hope you were talking about the busybody and not Jeff. If not, you've just described your issues better than I ever could have.
@@KNIGHTJUMPS Had a few too many huh
Happy Father’s Day, Jeff, and God bless you and your family.
It's amazing to see a cop that's learned from the auditors. Verification of the job you do
The cop has only learned to leave Jeff alone. He still never told the restaurant that Jeff can keep doing everything he's been doing no matter how much they whine.
Also the cop failed to charge the callers with filing a false report. Blocking door? Panhandling? No evidence! Total liars! Abuse of emergency communications!
American education system on display! Great job Jeff 👏🏻🙏🏻
Winning an argument with a genius is difficult.
Winning an argument with an idiot is impossible.
I haven't even started the video yet and the headline is cracking me up. Jeff Gray is the GOAT.
Way to make Father's Day Sunday so much fun.
Happy Father’s Day Jeff.
This restaurant looks like a place that needs an audit by spanky pants and tater salad. Their style of ‘window shopping’ would really light this place up. Great vid Jeff
love the line "my buddy was" what a melt his buddy would be embarrassed by his behavior and using his service. HYO is a Goat and amazing man, spreading the word of God Bless Our Homeless Vets. Our own history states that we gave promises to our Veterans that has yet to be upheld so we need more people to pressure this issue for our Veterans when they come home.
Fantastic interaction with a officer who had the perfect attitude 👍👍👍🇬🇧.
Top man Geoff 👍
One thing I find disgusting is the lack of compassion for those that are less fortunate than they are. I could see people complaining if someone was trying to force people to give them money but obviously you're not doing that. Those complaining should be ashamed of themselves.
$5😂 the last guy offered chips and a Gatorade. Maybe for a $50 or $100 i would move😂✌💜
Yes, take the $100 and move down the street, then immediately move back, the verbal contract he provided left a lot of holes!
When in situations such as this I always ask myself, “What would Jeffrey Gray do?”
Careful: he has cameras and a rep. Do you?
Kudos to Sgt. Garcia for his kindness and being thorough and engaging in casual conversation without being ID needy.
Much respect to this officer
That cop absolutely would have pushed the panhandling and threatened you with arrest if he didn't realize you knew your rights early. Him even mentioning it proves that. If he knew the ordinance was overturned, why else would he even say it?
He knew who Jeff was.
He thinks his city ordinance "subjugates that ruling." About as backward as you can get.
@TOYBOX2008 yet he still said it was against their city ordinance. When Jeff pointed out it was overturned, suddenly he talked particulars of when it could and could not be enforced. He took his shot, realized he was outclassed and backed down.
Because cops are paid to lie.
@@ivermectin1908 yep.
This restaurant supports vets but only where they say🤦🏻♂️ you can exercise your rights across the st🙄 You rock Jeff🇺🇸👊🏻
Jeff you have the patience of a Saint. Thank you and God bless the homeless vets! We love you Jeff!
"Well, you were friendly just a minute ago."😂
It's funny how quickly people's fake faces fall away when you don't do what they say.
ITS COOL, RIGHT WHEN THEY FIGURE OUT THAT YOU ARE MORE INFORMED OF THE LAWS THAN THEM!
They dance around it and eventually relent !
Thank you JEFF!
Congratulations on being promoted on Fox News. Your emense contribution to our civil rights is immeasurable. Thank and keep up the necessary work!!
Why is it that there are so many people who believe they "owed an explanation" as to what another person is doing !
