Man cited after paying bill with 2,500 pennies

[badmonk3829]

pennies are actually worth 1.3 cents because thats how much it costs to make a penny

[allthegoodshitiknow]

You guys are fucking idiots. He is legally allowed to pay with pennies, but it is the fact that he threw them on the counter.

[tweetlebugzz]

thats bull crap! pennies are legal tender

[abruzz0]

Keep the change, you filthy animal

[c0rk3h]

He should pay the fine with 14,000 pennies. Cunts.

[AndrewBarsky]

It is legal united states tender... Of course he did it with a less than pleasant attitude, But I never knew that you can be jailed for having a shitty attitude 

[SamyAdel9]

I wish this video was even more obnoxiously loud.

[Brandonisrad18]

Are you serious? ITS MONEY, fcking dumb-asses. If you don't want people to use pennies, heres a bright idea, STOP MAKING THEM :D Or they could have told the guy "hey we don't accept over so and so amounts of pennies, come back to us after you have exchanged them for $1 bills or more." To fine someone for using currency that is completely legal, to me, is an abuse of power and the police department should be FINED.

[coolbutt7]

It's legal tender, you have to take USD legal tender

[T2FAKE]

obamas president



[elvisloversrus]

No, he should not have to pay a fine.

[brucesdata]

It is money. No fine what have we come to.

[nordicbastard7]

IT"S LEGAL TENDER, SUCK IT.

[904austin]

Lol, "Do you accept cash?" "Why yes sir we do." "Well here *dumps pennies on counter* is all I owe you." "Yes, 9-1-1? I'd like to report a man who just paid his bill in pennies."

[cavemanxtream]

if he has to pay a fine he should do it in pennys to

[DigitalRiotz]

Wtf why is there a iPad box? show offs...

[burningsponge]

either:

1) paying with legal tender isn't legal anymore

or

2) these people are fucking babies.

[SacredSocietyAP]

I would have wrote them 10,000 1/4 cent checks...lol

[Joshwalkedin]

I like how we get these rules that our government gives us(first off why do they PICK how we live. people are so oblivious!) that is US tender they can't fine him retards..

[GVLBRTY]

fascists 

[pewe3058]

nope

[9xMineCrafterx7]

He shouldn't be fined! he is giving them money, they said they accepted cash!

[Masterzaah]

Only in America...

[AddictiveHerring]

goddamn these nasty fake looking news-freaks

[SkyfalconTin]

what he did wrong is his altitude toward the other people, but nothing wrong with paying pennies at all.

[iXtcDrgn]

Disorderly conduct for paying with money? BLASPHEMY!

[remsensor]

He should have paid the fine that they gave him in pennies too.

[MrBloodybullet]

i think i will pay my 750 dollar rent in pennies

[Familyguyawesome2]

He should not be fined the people who called the fuzz on him should get life in prison

[Zeamus634]

IT IS LEGAL TENDER!

[krispy42008]

0:25 I didnt know fines can carry fines.

[mobspeak]

NO IT'S MONEY!

[Brian211978]

I'm never going to that town!

[rockband3737]

thumbs up if you noticed the IPad box:)

[FusRoDah9011]

He made it rain, lol

[ahoysari]

I don't think he should be cited. It may have been an inconvenience, but he payed the bill. I get people who pay for meals at the restaurant I work at in coins. And sure, I don't like to count it up because it takes too long. But I don't call the damn police on them.

[Gentrone]

"BUT IT'S STILL MANEY!!"

[Ace2655]

Yeah had they been in a crate or something that would have been fine ,but he dumped them all over them and that was what I think deserved a fine.

[mmmcrispychicken2012]

he dumped the pennies out like a dumbass, 2500 pennies dumped all over your lap you would be pissed too. If he would've just gave them the bag of pennies it would've been all good.

[KARINIAGE]

This guy is the GREATEST TROLL EVER!!!!

[VeqtorAirsoft]

Pay the citation in pennies!

[FCIV63]

So they can jerk you with a bullshit fee, but if you try to jerk them back, they become sore sports. If I was the officer, I'd just say that I gave him a warning.

[jameswray50]

Pennies are legal tender, if you cant pay a sum or a bill with it then they should just get rid of them. They cost more then a pennie to make annyways... pointles

[xxxxJBBxxxx]

pay traffic ticket in pennies

[lyokofreak578]

Fuck this shit, I'm joining anonymous

[MrHotrod68]

@lyokofreak578

4chan here we come

[stgm]

@lyokofreak578 Don't. They're just making everything worse.

[R773films]

Fining someone for paying a fine...

[yamxa996]

The question is, who kept all the pennies???

[shadow7death]

A fine? They should have melted those pennies down and gave them back to him and the form of a trophy :)

[GentalmanLout]

This is final for me. America is a nation of retards.

[bigdadddyd123]

@GentalmanLout No sir (PEOPLE) are retarded

[aboisjoli]

hmmm what IS normal society...pray tell?

[AlexRider7789]

No I don't think he should've been fined

[ipwnyou0]

he should pay the fine in pennies..

[EricChris8]

they have a right to not accept the pennys but they can't fine him for it?

[YourUncleEarl]

its legal tender....irregardless of the denomination......why is there a fine or a discussion about this? isnt it against the law to refuse legal tender?

[sspeed112579]

now go pay the cops fine in PENNIES!!!!!!! DOOO ITTT!! DOO ITT!!!

[Hernandez048]

Did he pay the fine with 14,000 pennies?

[cutieprincess161]

so wait? he got fined for jest paying with pennies WITCH is legal tender? thats it i dont want to live in this world anymore

[bennyholb]

They called police, who cited West with Disorderly Contact, a fine that carried a fine of 140 bucks.

[HateTotal]

@MrAtheosRecords nope

[SamuelSiebach]

i dont think so,i think he should clean it up though

[rastaR00STER]

Wtf, what wrong with that. Money is money.

[bnewton81]

Fuck all dentists. Can't get insurance for dental that pays shit in the US. I've had bad teeth my whole life because I have never had thousands of dollars of spare money laying about for some cunt dentist to pilfer from me. I'm srsly having all my teeth removed and replaced with dentures just to bypass this racket.

[Solidus1086]

I would not dump them i would bring them in the bag and make those cunts count them. Fuckers could not do shit about that. ^^

In fact if i had the misfortune to live in america i would pay all my hospital bills in pennies, don't care if i have to bring in 40 bags of the things, i would do it to show how much i despise that barbaric healthcare system which lets 40k+ people die each year because they cant afford insurance.

[ukillnub201]

@Solidus1086 You sound like a European. Foolish welfare policies tut tut.

[sayzeem]

Whether it's legal tender or not is IRRELEVANT. He dumped the coins in the clinic (just imagine the scene, pennies spilling and clinking over the counter and on to the floor) causing a disturbance.

[MonSwon]

Its not paying in coins its dumping it over the desk, if he stuck one in their eye thats still assault you cant say I was just giving them their money.

[DarkGlitchX]

It's legal fucking tender...why is he being fined?

[Tewthpaste]

finally someone who sees penny as something worth it. Now a day as we see a penny on the ground we just walk pass it like its not there. Where did he get all those Penny from?

[shaundeeming]

@Tewthpaste er the bank...

[Connor2349]

Let me guess, he will pay in nickels next...

[ryanericw]

So now you can be fined just because you didn't behave how someone wants you to...

[NukeMASTAR]

@ryanericw so trueeee.. you should be able to pay in any kind of currency, if their gonna bitch about this, just discontinue the penny, nuff said.

[MegaBlobbers]

CRAP. When I was watching the video i was thinking "maybe he should pay the fin with the pennies LOL" but when I scrolled down, funny idea was already used -_____-

[yaaman34]

Isn't it money?

Dumbfucks.

[stuartthegrant]

If its legal tender there is no problem legaly.

Banks will change coins.Stuart

[mw2Flem]

dizz muffucka got fined for paying a bill.....fuck otta here

[jwallbanger]

disorderly conduct, what they charge you with when you didn't actually do anything illegal except piss someone off.

[009tesla]

it's cash, fuck em

[tkcypruss07]

its money, why should he be fined? he was paying a bill with money. not with crap

[ejr23]

If I was the responding officer I'd ignore the call and go for coffee and doughnuts.

[chasq1]

i would have paid the fine in pennys

[MrAtheosRecords]

Wait a minute? Aren't Pennies Legal Tender?

[undisputed4life]

@MrAtheosRecords Lol It's legal tender they have to accept it.

[picklechipdip56]

FUCKING LEGEND.

[TheFiahman1]

thats fucking stupid... why isnt this outcried!?!?! the police should be shut down on this one

[unenslaved2012]

No he shouldnt pay the stupid fine !!! we are living a planet of shame ! its disgusting

hows the idiot who called the pigs in the first place ! I gunna throw a big bag of shit with a brick in a paper bag through their window

[32combatarms]

@renobt 250$

[untouchable36046]

no he shouldn't get fined

[MrThomasBrandon]

Legally they can ask for gummy bears as payment.

[8XxHawkxX8]

fined for what? pennys or not it's still legal tender

[ItsPaiin]

@8XxHawkxX8 Fined for "disorderly conduct" for dumping the pennies all over the office and causing a mess everywhere.

[edi919]

americans... damn, your government is so democratic... 

[T5IVEPICTURES]

fuckin freemasons and the illuminati fineing people fuck them and fuck the news its owned buy the illuminati fuck SOPA fuck everything

[traslomita]

this is why u slavists invented the d-conduct, to get u ass straight and get more of u h-earned money.remember when anybody call this niggas this niggas haft to fine any1 in order to make worthwhile the call, so next time u all buy u pinkypanties pay the value of it with pennis and pay the tax with shit.. that will give a lesson to you slavists goverments

[renobt]

$25...you're gonna make that big a deal about 25 bucks...pony up ya cheap bastard!

[GrateMilenko]

no i thank yal somebull shit

[MuffinFB]

Pennies are legal tender! How could this guy ever be fined for this?!

[havabighed]

Yeah... its absurd when people refuse pennies. I once got refused to buy a $5 item in pennies from 7-11... it was total bullshit.

[trolls414]

then whats the point for having pennies in our currency

[brotherbear000]

think of it this way, he got crappy service from a doctors office, and he wanted some payback. he didnt slash their tires, or burn the place down, or beat anybody up, he did something completely legal, and entirely obnoxious.

[HiLiLjit]

Thats fucking bullshit thats the Americac system the guy didnt do anything! if you cant buy anything with pennys then dont fucking put it in our currensy system its still money fucking pussys Id that that shit all the way to court....fucking loosers I swear america is going to shit thy say were free? Yeah bull shit we cant do anything without the cops on our ass or someone watching us shits rediculous.

[vorkev1]

that is fucking bull shit he payed his bill if a penny is not money then thay can well i think youno.

[shawn863]

YOUTUBE MONEY!

[Wiggymaster]

Hell no he shouldn't be fined. If I were him, I'd fight it. Pennies are legal tender. They accept cash, therefore they're required to accept pennies.

This is yet another example of how anyone who steps outside the boundaries set by those with money is met with tyranny. How many arrests in this country are based on "disorderly conduct?" It is our right and duty to be disorderly when we have reason to be. Our forebearers fought and died for this reason.

[MrAtheosRecords]

"How many arrests in this country are based on "disorderly conduct?" [End Quote]

Lol! I can personally attest to this. I was arrested for Disorderly Conduct because I told the cop to "fuck off" [End Quote] and/or get "fucking hands off of me" [End Quote]. Guess who the arresting officer was? Officer Muhammad! Hahahaha go fucking figure I get arrested by a freaking Muslim in America.

[xXxTheChosenOnexXx1]

i dont think he should

[hgnbfc2]

NO This guy had enough money so just friggin accept it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[madguy457]

I got paid $8 in change at Wendys before, I wasn't happy, but i had to accept and count it -_-

[pruane2isgod]

It wouldn't be a fine if she didn't clearly say that he "dumped them all over the counter". The fine was for disorderly conduct.

[6FTCloser]

IT'S FEDERAL LAW TO ACCEPT ALL LEGAL TENDER!!

[TheMRrickroll]

Anyone have phone number for that hospital???? I want to call and complain that's ridiculous though. Both of those parties are dumb. You aren't going to make them count pennies most banks have coin counters :S durr take the pennies to bank put them in counter and BOOM problem solved. Wow wow wow Stupid people

[itubedya]

To fine for that is an extreme sense of humor and has nothing to do with legality going by the book. To go by the book they needed to have a written statement or a sign that they do not accept large amount of pennies, checks, or credit cards. To be disorderly it needs to have been tampered with like dipped into a poop. To pay the lump sum about with the pennies is simply a minor insult/offense. He should not have been fined for a lack of common sense but in some town police are way too bored.

[LedZeppelin420x]

Its rediculous there takin our freedoms away slowly, america is twisted as fuck

[MrNuffsaid97]

badass

[Wff311]

this is not how people behave in normal society, wtf is normal society? everyone following popstars, having facebooks, and confirming like any other citizen? just curious what "normal" is

[cc10121492]

@Wff311

Normal people use credit cards. Only terrorists and serial killers use cash.

[sonofhimmler1]

@cc10121492 no people who stupidy get sucked into capitalism use credit cards i wouldnt even use cash id prefer barter or force

[zoooooomn1]

@sonofhimmler1 You said it!! Barter rocks!! This fake currency that everyone worships is insane. Yes, our society has a bastardized form of capitalism. That is what we get for putting our TRUST in a GOD. (Money=Trust and GOD=Govt. Operations Department. lol There is no form of real free trade. The concept of free anything, even trade has been jaded by govt communism, err I mean socialism, err I mean fascism, err I mean statism. Okay, let's just say "jaded by private interests." ;)

[Wff311]

@cc10121492 haha i don't have a credit card what are you trying to say? Also I think credit cards are a joke, spending money you don't have.

[spfinc1212]

Thats Not right, He shouldnt of been fined, but he was making a point to a pointless bill if any. it is legal tender.

[amohotepv]

Violence is golden

[rrebelyellerr1]

if i got a fine for paying for something in pennies then i would be a jackass and pay the police fine in pennies flip the cops off and walk out

[billwagner512]

I'm wondering if there is some kind of douche bag test that you have to pass in order to host these kind of shows...?

[LMGunslinger]

MAN, FUCK THE POLICE!

[03Srbija]

normal society haha where?

[spiritwolf50]

Probable cause. you don't no what actually happened. if the courts went off of the news crews explanations. we would all be in jail.

[subway5dollarftlong]

people are stupid. If the hospital staff can get pissed by being paid by pennies, they shouldn't work there.

[texas817847]

In some weird way, I want the black chick.

[Slayerdude91]

that fine is gonna be over 9000 pennies.

[0wnuquik]

Sounds like 14,000 pennies will be paid for the fine

[TheBassmentmusic]

COINTSAR BITCH

[GetThisThingCrunk]

@TheBassmentmusic no way coinstar takes 9 percent of your money

[TheBassmentmusic]

"Because im always in a hurry" who the fuck are u bitch wait in line like everyone else 

[CocaColaMann]

@TheBassmentmusic lol u sir made me laugh

>:D

[TheBassmentmusic]

@CocaColaMann lol well im glad u thought it was funny

[lkeve]

I would take that fine to court and make a lot of noise about it and about incompetence of the police.

[MrPlTA]

the woman on the right seems slightly slow

[AK74inCali]

ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. They have to accept it. Legal tender is legal tender. I worked retail for MANY years during college, and we were NEVER allowed to refuse change. Most banks CHARGE for rolls and CHARGE for counting change; most won't even do it anymore, even if you have an account with them. I understand he was making a point--and I doubt they will ever forget him. Point made.

[DownedByMaul]

Fox reporting on some complete bullshit story as always

[Fireman27852]

@DownedByMaul This is ABC. Fox won't report on it unless they can spin it against a liberal, democrat, or anyone else they don't agree with.

[hefe6951]

@DownedByMaul cool bullshit comment. it says abc in the corner

[myfairvanity]

He was an asshole but it was legal. You shouldn't get fined just for being an asshole. It's not like I can walk around fining cops all day.

[KingOfThe4Way]

fucking bullshit, i would fucking go crazy if they fined me.

[KingOfThe4Way]

that guy is the man

[Hilliscountry89]

I'd be pissed if i had to count out 2500 pennies too

[Stylishlyshite]

@Hilliscountry89 money counter lol my piggy bank counts all mine for me takes me like 5 - 10 mins to count about £14 worth on pennys i definetly agree with The top comment money is money they asked for it he gave it to them just not in notes lol if i wanted 20 pound and someone gave it to me in pennys i wouldnt be conplaining i would proberly laugh lol

[Hilliscountry89]

@Stylishlyshite nah but if he dumped it right on the counter and you don't have access to a money counter, how do you know how much is there? That's what I meant when I said I'd be upset

[betcog]

Im glad the news anchors never had to count out pennys in a shop....... we are in the middle of a resesion after all !!! If i see a penny on the street u can be damn sure i would pick it up, its hard enough toearn them.

[ReligionIs4iDiOtS]

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THIS NATION AND THE FUCKING RETARDED PUSSIES THAT INHABIT IT - CALLING THE COPS FOR ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING. Get a fucking life people, the police are there to defend us against hardened criminals, NOT PETTY NUISANCES. Yeah its a pain to pick up the pennies, but dont call the fucking cops! WTF

[dashunderscoredash]

@ReligionIs4iDiOtS Or perhaps "penny" nuisances.

YEEEEEAHHHHHH

[Csensis]

ya, ppl gotta learn to take a joke

[artol2k]

No one ever said that it wasn't Legal Tender or that they refused to accept it

They didn't fine him for using pennies....they fined him for being an asshole!!!

[TheNova1960]

Everyone should start using pennies especially at the grocery store! Money is flipping money.

[MISTAFUNKYFUNK]

WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT. LEAVE THE MAN ALONE.

[danielodors]

Billed for paying a bill. They have us by the balls, and the anchorpeople can only laugh.

[bunnybonsaza]

money is money take what you get and dont bitch about it at least you got it

[COSTER5858]

Cops..just arresting people for doing the right thing...

[NotRummy44]

Not legal tender.

[chopper1491]

considering it costs 1.3 cents to manufacture a penny he shouldnt have to pay as much.

[MartinJessePro]

in canada its not legal to pay a debt over 25 cents with pennies

[PatrickTheHattrick92]

@MartinJessePro

Yeah, but Canadas a messed up place.Their bacon is ham!

and put mayonnaise on their french fries instead of ketchup... thats gross!

[Travaillons]

@PatrickTheHattrick92 No one I knew in Canada uses mayonnaise on their fries. Did you learn that from Fox News?

[cnoyes82]

@Travaillons So you act as though your experience is able to be extrapolated to encompass the whole of reality for Canada and you're accusing this guy of being Fox News like? Go fuck your self douchewad.
