if a cop asks you for anything, any information other than your drivers liscense, tell them "no". tell them that because you do not understand the legal system you feel uncomfortable answering questions without a lawyer present. then, keep your mouth shut, get a lawyer, and take that good-for-nothing pig's badge.
fuck the police. they are union for a reason.
those who do, those who cant, teach, those who cant teach, manage. those who cant manage, unionize.
police give up the right to privacy when they wear a badge that regularly has them saying "anything you say can and will be held against you in a court of law"
@anime1973 Do you know that Christianity is correct? The world around us reveals that G-d DOES exist, and the historical evidence reveals that Jesus Christ really did come to this earth and there is overwhelming evidence that Jesus Christ really did physically rise from the dead. Jesus is coming again and the signs of the end times that were foretold in the Bible are coming to pass.
The police are armed and retarded they all are overpayed under worked and most of them are fat so fat that they cannot do their jobs so all they got to resort to is brutality or to shoot you becase after 1 minute of work they are exhausted as hell they will shoot you and put that back up gun in your hand. It is obvious that the police are the enemy of the people they are all armed and retarded and overplay they will do any thing to keep their job even kill you police armed and retarded
I guess it was a good outcome. But, it kind of seems like allot of wasted time esp. when you consider that the person was arrested. In my opinion the cops should never get away with something by claiming ignorance of the law or because they did not intend to break the law etc. It's too damn easy to act like an absolute moron and get away with basically anything you've done. Ever watch CSPAN? Ever notice people who are F-ing lawyers and/or experts in their field being interviewed and wonder wtf?
I would make one suggestion: In the video @ReasonTV says you should ask which law you are breaking if challenged. The police don't have to tell you this. You only have to be informed of what charge you're being accused of if you are issued a warrant or citation. So if you're going to ask about what law you are breaking, tread carefully. I would suggest consulting an attorney beforehand.
Am just a amateur photographer having fun. Will study and learn my Constitutional freedoms regarding this issue because this vid was on Google-. Thanks for the trouble.
Even in goddamn Russia it is clearly, specifically said in the federal law that you can film a police officer on duty. Jesus fucking christ, the states is a fucking fascist state
In the state I currently live in (California), it is LEGAL to photograph or videotape LEOs operating in PUBLIC, where there is No Expectation of Privacy. A Jack Booted Thug in Uniform might disagree but that is THEIR problem.
Great Video. The officers featured within this video are violent and power hungry, and also ignorant of the law. To ask the innocent citizen if "he has something to do" is not appropriate to ask. Many, [although not all], Law Enforcement Officials are ignorant and confused regarding the law that they are expected to enforce.
@phonepimpbill The states can not pass laws that are counter to the idea and principle of the constitutions provisions. The second half of the second amendment is very clear. Those people that pretend those words are questionable, should be strung up as clear cut cases of an obstructionist of liberties and freedom for all. Fired from public office immediately in the least, impeached and removed. [why wasn't clinton removed?]
I will continue to record any and all police interactions I have, from this day until the day I die. If it goes well, the officers will be commended for doing a good job, and it will be done publicly. If they act outside the bounds of their authority, they will be reported and scrutinized, and everyone I know as well as the public at large will be made aware of their wrongdoings.
That's the way it is. If they wish to not be caught doing wrong, they will stop doing wrong. Period.
@DeliriousKindness1 Maybe if more than 60% of the people in the city vote on it.- I assume your comment wasn't to be taken literally; what are you saying.
I worked in law enforcement for about five years until I couldn't stand it any longer. The public needs to know that cops are not 'heroes' or any of that other BS. Most are thugs of below average intelligence who couldn't care less about the Constitution or the citizens they are supposed to serve.
@nightsongs1970 ...Having been in law enforcement, and a Special Agent with an Inspector General's Office who oversaw police, I FULLY agree!! The vast majority of the public really has no clue as to how often police violate citizen's rights.
oh, i know they dont give a shit about the constitution. i've had cops tell me that if i take advantage of my 5th amendment right to remain silent, that they would arrest me for obstruction. i still refused, and once they found out that they couldnt legally charge me w/ that crime, they charged me w/ felonly possession of stolen goods where the "goods" were gaming supplies in my car.
never arraigned, charges dropped, still spent 3 days in jail for no reason.
@TheoryIsSpeculation It was my understanding that was a ruling from the 1st Circuit Court, which only holds jurisdiction over certain States; however, it is a good start and precedent for the rest.
@1775novten Certain states and areas of states pass 'laws" which fall under the catagory of malum prohibitum. This is something that is declared an unlawful act by virtue of a statute. Technically these are not laws; as they are not bonded by the people. Rather than get involved I would like to promote the local courts challenging the higher courts for clarification....and watch the feathers fly. Instead; we citizens get caught in the middle. Higher court says legal, lower court says pay a fine.
@ohannahdad Yes, I agree case law is not technically "law", but at times it's almost better because it sets a precedent of what is Constitutionally acceptable. Bottom line is that I'm glad that courts are recognizing that filming the police, and anyone is public for that matter, is not wiretapping and should be allowed and expected.
@1775novten In most cases these days, the cop is recording the encounter, unless they have premeditated law breaking to do. One side records, both are allowed obviously/ Every telephone call is recorded, or you are told in a message that it is, feel free. All gov departments are "in public". Their telephones rigged to record. Cop cars rigged to record. If their cruiser is pointing at you, point it out to the cop "we are being recorded, even better with more angles".
Man this speaks volumes about the state of affairs in our country just 20 years ago the police knew they were public servants there TO SERVE AND PROTECT now they think we can't film the PUBLIC SERVANTS they are not getting smarter as they are supposed to they are getting dumber and dumber only a moron would set up a police state that their kids are going to have to grow up in!!!!
Phone co's need to come out with a 4 food thin cable with a camera lens on the end to clip on our shirts. This is not so obvious - thus more effective. However, it will turn a bunch of idiots into filming EVERYTHING stupid too. ahhhh dilemmas
It is about time people in the US start waking up.
The Federal Reserve is a group of private bankers that have been stealing the wealth of this nation by making money from paper and ink then making us work for it.
The US government does not even own its own currency. How can we be a free nation?
It makes me laugh everytime I hear people sing the national anthem, "The Land of the Free" Bull shit!!! We are owned by the fed!!!!!!!!!!
my brainwashed family agree protesting should be illegal! I am not making this up they are really brainwashed. Ignorance is killing people every second of the day. Change the corrupt laws people don't need to die!
Government says bullying is wrong to kids but corrupt authority is bullying, using violence and even stealing peoples cannabis to smoke for themselves!
People who believed the earth was flat, changed their minds when presented with truth.This world is worse ignoring THC curing cancer
The cops are freaked out. You know why? BECAUSE NOW THEY REALIZE THEY WILL BE CAUGHT ON VIDEO WHEN THEY FUCK UP. Bwahahahahahaa! You stupid cocksuckers will NEVER KNOW when the cameras are rolling, so you better stop the stormtrooper violence, you inbred fuckstick pieces of shit. YOU CAN BE FILMED AT ANY TIME AND THERE'S NOT A FUCKING THING YOU CAN DO AOUT IT, ASSHOLES. Go fuck yourself, you egomaniacal shitheads.
that right, like forcing you to stop, arrest, etc.
Wake up and learn to use the court system to your own benefit. Court starts when the first interaction starts, if you know the law. It's all based on claims and PRESUMPTIONS. Have to know your rights to legally challenge the PRESUMPTIONS of law. It's not hard. Just understand they are PRESUMING authority hoping you'll AGREE that they have that authority. Once u accept the presumption, it becomes a legally valid claim ont heir part. Simple.
So next time a cop or judge says "turn it off" you say:
"Are you aware that the current federal court ruling says I have the right to record you anytime I want to, and that violation of my rights could leave you personally liable for $10,000?" Get it on tape. You've made a claim, and if he doesn't effectively rebut with a superior jurisdictional claim, you win by default. Have to get it all on the record, and SUBMITTED INTO record, including any action he takes claiming jurisdiction over

@VerifiedNews Unless you're inside the court house. At the beginning of the video they said the laws are complicated and different from district to district. You'd have to do a lot of research first.
Sigh, so many posters obviously don't know that a federal circuit court recently ruled that we have the right to record ALL public servants during the conduct of their duties. That INCLUDES JUDGES and court proceedings. No statute can violate a right, and any law that's been ruled unconstitutional, is NULL AND VOID AB INITIO (from the beginning.) That also means retroactively. So if you've ever had trouble, you can revisit the issue based on the above.
@VerifiedNews Cannabis laws in ontario, canada were ruled unconstitutional by the courts....hypocrisy still continues.,people still suffering and dying because of corruption. And a plant is illegal that has never killed anyone, is anti-aging,cures cancer and most disease,and also provides 6-10 times more ethanol per acre compared to corn ethanol (they grow LOTS of corn for ethanol!!!)
People are still getting arrested, cops still stealing peoples weed & cops grow weed to sell on black market!
@yellowecotec Common sense does not rule the world, economics does. The day someone comes on the market with a cure for cancer, the same day the pharmaceutical companies go bankrupt. That same day I'll celebrate.
When are we as American going to stand up to such tyranny?? Do you think Martin Luther King sat around and talked about shit? Do you think are founders sat around and gossiped about tyranny? No they stood up and fought for such simple issue such as Tea Taxes. America we have the right to assemble and speech we need to exercise those rights proudly and aggressively regardless of the consequences!
"it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government"
You cannot fight fire with fire but can send love .love is the key .if everyone send thoughts of love across our world .we will make the evil yeld in subjection under our command .Love is the only armament against evil .so start having happy and loving thoughts for all the people in the world and watch the Elites crumble under our feet!
Our local TV stations tell us to "Be newshounds. Send your action footage to us." You are essentially acting as a freelance, independent contractor and are covered by the First Amendment.
There may soon come a day where citizen reporters carry paramilitary equipment similar to that of law enforcement when exercising their constitutional right to walk down a street without being subject to molestation by armed operatives of the government. The constitution allows that similar action to protect one's freedoms be taken against those who illegally act with force to deny them. Freedom isn't free and as you can see in the video, passive resistance is equally as dangerous.
@altgeldrarities You can already carry and exposed gun in Texas. Normal cops carry pistols and shotguns, not assault rifles and machine guns, paramilitary stuff.
I was taking photos the other day and I wasn't really sure where I was, but it turned out I was on the property of a maximum security prison and, when an officer saw my friend and I, he told us that merely standing there was a felony, confiscated our cameras, and then he, the warren, the sergeant, and others proceeded to interrogate us for 2 hours. Assuming that we were up to no good, they couldn't believe we liked to take pictures for the sheer fun of it.
The old guys flopping on the ground when they arrest him makes me laugh every time! If they're gonna hassle him he's gonna make them carry him to jail!
"More transparency and accountability" again I have to ask HOW. The free market is good and all but it's NO magic solution.
Have you ever heard of black water? Yeah they're sooo transparent and accountable for all of the people they murdered and raped (including women and children) that only came out AFTER wiki-leaks.
Have you ever heard of black water? Yeah they're sooo transparent and accountable for all of the people they murdered and raped (including women and children) that only came out AFTER wiki-leaks.
Never happned. I dont care anywys since they were terrorists.
Not at all practical, (way to many cops) nor would it work, have you seen the corruption in Washington lately? I wanna say lol but it's actually really depressing. :(
@Leadman1989 How is it not practical for each city or town to vote for who the cops are? The people pay their salary through taxation so that's how it should be. Either that or just cut the police and start with a new citizen police group that is tough on gang/crime stuff but sensitive to the average joe.
people might actually respect police again if there was less bullshit going on(ticketing, tasering, etc).
cut the wages and hire more people to patrol for real crime.
Because there are WAY TO MANY COPS and they change too often. Should we also vote for army, marines etc? Plus VOTING for someone doesn't mean there still won't be assholes that get VOTED in we have that now. Who do you think is gonna get elected in small, racist, religious, homophobic towns? As for starting a citizen police group power corrupts they'll start out ok but that position attracts people that want POWER over others. Cut wages? How much do you think they make?
@Leadman1989 it is interresting that you assume a citizen's police group would be corrupt because power corrupts.... I think your arguement just defeated itself... This is suppose to be why we have a constitution that sets defined limits on what government cannot take away from us. Cities themselves could privatize police forces and set defined limits on that as well, allowing multiple companies to compete for the contract. (part 1)
@Leadman1989 (part 2) If mayors and city council become corrupt with said "police companies" (this happens already whether police are privately contracted or not) then the local courts impeach them in public trials and sentence them as criminals instead of allowing the weak punishment of resignation. The law here would be just, city and police corruption = residents becoming victims. An example of city/police already being corrupt together is setting speed limits unreasonably low...cont.
@Leadman1989 (part 2) according to engineer data to generate revenue from tickets. My room mate is a police officer in Chesapeake, VA and a "city representative" came to his precinct and told them to write more tickets because city personnel were in danger of not having funding for their jobs. They had to be "told to" because this particular city doesn't have "quotas" for tickets like some cities do. Nevermind the "dismissed" charges in which you still get to pay $70 for being not guilty...
If you let a police force become privatized (like black water and countless other military contractors) then PROFIT becomes their primary motive, they become (A)moral corporations. All you're doing is decentralizing any power to stop them from warping the system even more in their favor. Free market blah blah blah... bullshit if there's an established service that's corupt it would be nearly impossible to over throw it because they have so much money GOOGLE, Ford, GE etc...
@Leadman1989 You're education on "profit" is a glaring example of government control, programs, and intervention and why they shouldn't exist. In fact, government is the one actually responsible for "corrupt" businesses staying in existance. Two you mention are GE and Ford, which are great examples of this because BOTH owe their existence to government sweet heart deals or bailouts, which actually rewards corruption or failure. Cont...
No the government is BOUGHT by corrupt business they aren't responsible for them if we actually had any competition between the two parties or MORE parties with PUBLIC campaign funding and decent regulation and protections for the people then this wouldn't be an issue.
@Leadman1989 This actually removes the market and "profits" ability to correct such issues because it is a third party spending another third parties money, which is the worst possible way to spend money (Milton Friedman) because you are not as likely to be concerned with A: Value (because you're not personally the recipient and B: Cost because its not your money. Profit by this right is not only moral but the most effective means of control of corruption and bad products Cont....
@Leadman1989 If you buy something it is because what ever you bought is worth more to you than what the money you just exchanged. You profit because you got what you wanted/needed and the person providing the product does as well. This only exists when the persons directly benefitting have control over the exchange. When someone else spends your money for you things like Blackwater happen. Blackwater exists because Government pays them. Show me corruption and I'll show you Gov finger prints
So you're saying amoral corporations that care NOTHING about people and ONLY ABOUT MONEY when suddenly given free reign to MONOPOLIZE, PAY WHAT THEY WANT (give the most profit), AND HAVE THE WORKING ENVIRONMENTS THEY WANT (give the most profit)... will do the right thing? How naive. Yes government is corrupt because they've been bought by corporate america!
@Leadman1989 Saying that "corporations care nothing about people and only about money" is a contridiction and if you checked your premises, very carefully, you would understand that this cannot exist. If "corporations" did not take any care or attention to what it is that people (aka consumers) want or need then they simply would fail to exist because there would not be anyone available to purchase what ever it is they're selling. Cont..
@Leadman1989 the ones that you recognize as corrupt are usually corrupt I will agree with you on this. But the corruption comes from taking money through either taxes or printing more fiat money and purchasing things the general consumer would otherwise probably not buy. This relationship is mutualistic, the very same corporations that receive this "stolen money" through sweet heart deals, subsidies, grants etc also contribute to the campaign of who ever champions the things that benefit them
@Leadman1989 therefore, ENDING regulations and laws that allow this very thing to happen where the government picks winners and losers stops the whole vicious cycle. IMHO those involved with such things should be put on trial. Congress was never intended to be allowed to do any of these things in the first place for this very reason. As a matter of fact, some congressmen retired from office destitute because they were not paid anything becaue their "job" didn't really require them to do much.
Firstly yes a corporations primary goal IS money and if they can make it selling paint with led in it they will the negative consequences aren't always immediate, how about tobacco companies they make lots of profit and their product KILLS their customers they don't care a wit as long as they make money. I agree I'm for sensible regulations and closure of loopholes. You're telling me corporations would be perfectly benign if GOVERNMENT hadn't corrupted them? You must be joking.
@Leadman1989 Nobody that smokes is confused by the fact that they're dangerous, poor example. I have a question for you. If a company makes a product and all of your friends buy it and suffer immediate horrible effects from it, are you going to buy it? I'll assume that to be a no. That said do you not think that the companies making consumer goods also realize this? Also, the more power and control government has the more reason a corporation has to exploit it. Less gov less corruption.
@Leadman1989 More regulations by and large equals more capital a person needs to start a business in anything. Do you think "corporations" really care? For the most part, no. Why? Because it makes it ever increasingly harder for any one to start another company to compete with them. In any case you could hope to present it is almost always better to let the market decide rather than creating regulation systems that in and of themselves create monopolies, thereby eliminating choice.
That's why we don't need MORE regulation we need SMART regulation, if you go back you'll see that's exactly what I said. Too many regulations and bureaucracy is bad as well too little regulation and companies cut corners and people get hurt, sick, and die.
@Leadman1989 And what I am saying is that companies do this on their own because injuries or deaths, especially for those with a skill set, is costly and counter productive. OSHA is another excellent example of this. They would love to claim responsibility for declines in occupational injury, however, they fail to observe that these were already dramatically falling before their inception in 1970. I agree that we don't need more, in fact we need less. Where has gov succeeded with regulation?
@TheNewMusicNetwork I agree with you, another idea too is ending all prohibition would alleviate nearly all of the "gang/crime stuff" by itself greatly reduce the need to have any where near as many police available. The majority of "crime" in this and any country is because something is made illegal and creates a black market. People aren't getting robbed or "gang banged" over cigarettes or bud lights after all and these are certainly harmful substances...
@Leadman1989 Another point on privatizing police would be that they would no longer be a government entity which would immediately dissolve the immunities they have that makes bad behavior perpetual. If one has to face jail time instead of verbal counciling or being "let go to transfer somewhere else" the individual A: would be more inclined to actually know rights better and B: would be far less likely to abuse their position.
Why would anything change? why wouldn't a giant police corporation try and protect itself from a lawsuit by protecting it's members? They have private prisons NOW that can't be held accountable why would anything be fucking different??????
Supposidly because of the Patriot Act, it is now illegal to take pictures of federal property, police, etc. I haven't read this and I've never heard about this part of the act before. But, in the end, just because a couple dozen cops out of thousands that are messing up doesn't mean that there is a huge injustice out there.
the guy at the start should have said he was a gestapo officer before pulling that gun, otherwise, why not run him down in fear of your life? But you can sympathise with the highway police at 6:22 who don't want a gawker on the freeway recording bodies
Too many cops let the power of their badge go to their head. This is the bigger problem, lack of professionalism and ignorance of the meaning of the word "SERVE" in "to protect and to serve." Cops need to be held to a higher standard of ethics.
basically city cops are guys who had C averages in High School, played football or hockey ( not very well either), enjoyed showering with each other but bashed gay guys, had a nick name that was their name with an 'o' on the end of it, hate natives and Pakistanis, and have a sports team logo tattooed on their ankle....morons...and we give them guns and power...ridiculous.
@rconnoly Actually, it's worse than that. I am aware that 11Bs (Army infantry) are flocking to "law enforcement" jobs in droves. As an 11B your skill set consists of "run and gun". These are soldiers who have been repeatedly deployed into combat for 15 months at a time. As the wars draw down and more soldiers are on the streets with badges and guns, we will see many more beatings and killings and they will always have the "law" on their side.
Excellent and very informative video here. And apparently 6 people like the idea of living in a police state and should be fitted for their brown shirts.
@illinoislibertarian The problem is that these are private police! All cities are corporations, therefore, they aren't held liable to the people as they were in the past. Look into it.
These cities own stocks in other big corporations and make money that way. The board of directors merely see their police officers as a "necessary evil"
Check into your own city. Check their CAFR (Comprehensive Annual Financial Report) and see what stocks and bonds that they own.
@illinoislibertarian Holy crap. You privatize police, and they'll work by their own corporate set of rules the way Credit Card companies do. They will lobby government to set laws that simply absolve them of federal laws since they are a private corporation. You will have zero recourse against a law officer who abuses his power if you privatize law enforcement. Think Blackwater. Only worse.
@SecondMarlowe Actually dont fully privitize them just a few regulations. They can only get pay increases if crime is low and punish them if it increases or if there are incidents of neglect and brutality.
@illinoislibertarian Fully privatizing them is a superior option. It sounds extreme at first, and that was my initial reaction as well, but I recommend Hoppe's /The Myth of National Defense/. It contains a pretty compelling argument in favor of privatizing the police and the military...
@SecondMarlowe Wrong. In a free market, the customer is always right. A privatized police force has a product to sell -- the enforcement of laws -- to a community. If the market is a free one, there will be competitor police forces. A nasty oppressive police force is going to lose on the market to one that upholds civil liberties. Socialized public safety is, like all other centrally planned elements of the economy, inferior to market alternatives.
Sometimes police actually think they may get to be federal agents or "work undercover" when they grow up, hence the overreaction. For the most part, they just want one side of the story - THEIR SIDE - to be documented.
Jurisdiction is usually "proven" at the point of a weapon, by the municipal "authorities". The most peaceful way of fighting back is either the public lawsuit or the private Commercial Lien. The latter is executed by the one victimized and is usually non-judicial (no judge is involved unless a review is requested). The Lien also is done "Sui Juris" (of one's own law) and does not involve attorneys or lawyers.
So this is called "the land of the free". U.S. is no different from totalitarian countries like Iran, or China. Where police can detain the press representatives and civil rights activists for exercising control of the state power apparatus.
In Denmark, it is allowed photographers to film and shoot pictures in all public areas, as long it is not for advertising. You may broadly shoot who you want, anywhere you want so long as the "victim" is not on private property.
Why do people have to be such dicks. I mean video taping a crash site nutting over it is such a dick move. The cops have to inform people of their loved ones being injured, videotaping the shit is just being an asshole. i am not against people video taping when appropriate, but some times people take shit too far.
Why do ALL cops seem to have such a huge problem with being videotaped? Every cop I see screams and cries like a rabid animal the instant they notice themselves being taped. If they didn't have anything to hide themselves, surely they wouldn't give a fuck about cameras being in the area, correct?
LMAO at that one cop "my civil liberties are being violated at this moment by videotape" So therefore Im going to violate your civil liberties by denying you free speech. GREAT F'ING LOGIC
If the cops can film people with camera's in their cop cars that were paid for by tax payers, then we can film them any time we want. They just don't like it when people catch these criminals in uniforms breaking the law themselves.

I would make one suggestion: In the video @ReasonTV says you should ask which law you are breaking if challenged. The police don't have to tell you this. You only have to be informed of what charge you're being accused of if you are issued a warrant or citation. So if you're going to ask about what law you are breaking, tread carefully. I would suggest consulting an attorney beforehand.

Great Video. The officers featured within this video are violent and power hungry, and also ignorant of the law. To ask the innocent citizen if "he has something to do" is not appropriate to ask. Many, [although not all], Law Enforcement Officials are ignorant and confused regarding the law that they are expected to enforce.

I will continue to record any and all police interactions I have, from this day until the day I die. If it goes well, the officers will be commended for doing a good job, and it will be done publicly. If they act outside the bounds of their authority, they will be reported and scrutinized, and everyone I know as well as the public at large will be made aware of their wrongdoings.
That's the way it is. If they wish to not be caught doing wrong, they will stop doing wrong. Period.

@1775novten Certain states and areas of states pass 'laws" which fall under the catagory of malum prohibitum. This is something that is declared an unlawful act by virtue of a statute. Technically these are not laws; as they are not bonded by the people. Rather than get involved I would like to promote the local courts challenging the higher courts for clarification....and watch the feathers fly. Instead; we citizens get caught in the middle. Higher court says legal, lower court says pay a fine.

@ohannahdad Yes, I agree case law is not technically "law", but at times it's almost better because it sets a precedent of what is Constitutionally acceptable. Bottom line is that I'm glad that courts are recognizing that filming the police, and anyone is public for that matter, is not wiretapping and should be allowed and expected.

@1775novten In most cases these days, the cop is recording the encounter, unless they have premeditated law breaking to do.

Their telephones rigged to record. Cop cars rigged to record. If their cruiser is pointing at you, point it out to the cop "we are being recorded, even better with more angles".

Sigh, so many posters obviously don't know that a federal circuit court recently ruled that we have the right to record ALL public servants during the conduct of their duties.

That also means retroactively. So if you've ever had trouble, you can revisit the issue based on the above.

There may soon come a day where citizen reporters carry paramilitary equipment similar to that of law enforcement when exercising their constitutional right to walk down a street without being subject to molestation by armed operatives of the government. The constitution allows that similar action to protect one's freedoms be taken against those who illegally act with force to deny them.

@Leadman1989 (part 2) If mayors and city council become corrupt with said "police companies" (this happens already whether police are privately contracted or not) then the local courts impeach them in public trials and sentence them as criminals instead of allowing the weak punishment of resignation.

@Leadman1989 the ones that you recognize as corrupt are usually corrupt I will agree with you on this. But the corruption comes from taking money through either taxes or printing more fiat money and purchasing things the general consumer would otherwise probably not buy. This relationship is mutualistic, the very same corporations that receive this "stolen money" through sweet heart deals, subsidies, grants etc also contribute to the campaign of who ever champions the things that benefit them
jayzizza0829 7 months ago
@Leadman1989 therefore, ENDING regulations and laws that allow this very thing to happen where the government picks winners and losers stops the whole vicious cycle. IMHO those involved with such things should be put on trial. Congress was never intended to be allowed to do any of these things in the first place for this very reason. As a matter of fact, some congressmen retired from office destitute because they were not paid anything becaue their "job" didn't really require them to do much.

That said do you not think that the companies making consumer goods also realize this? Also, the more power and control government has the more reason a corporation has to exploit it. Less gov less corruption.

@Leadman1989 More regulations by and large equals more capital a person needs to start a business in anything. Do you think "corporations" really care? For the most part, no. Why? Because it makes it ever increasingly harder for any one to start another company to compete with them. In any case you could hope to present it is almost always better to let the market decide rather than creating regulation systems that in and of themselves create monopolies, thereby eliminating choice.

Leadman1989 6 months ago
@Leadman1989 And what I am saying is that companies do this on their own because injuries or deaths, especially for those with a skill set, is costly and counter productive. OSHA is another excellent example of this. They would love to claim responsibility for declines in occupational injury, however, they fail to observe that these were already dramatically falling before their inception in 1970. I agree that we don't need more, in fact we need less. Where has gov succeeded with regulation?
jayzizza0829 6 months ago
@TheNewMusicNetwork I agree with you, another idea too is ending all prohibition would alleviate nearly all of the "gang/crime stuff" by itself greatly reduce the need to have any where near as many police available. The majority of "crime" in this and any country is because something is made illegal and creates a black market. People aren't getting robbed or "gang banged" over cigarettes or bud lights after all and these are certainly harmful substances...
jayzizza0829 7 months ago
@Leadman1989 Another point on privatizing police would be that they would no longer be a government entity which would immediately dissolve the immunities they have that makes bad behavior perpetual. If one has to face jail time instead of verbal counciling or being "let go to transfer somewhere else" the individual A: would be more inclined to actually know rights better and B: would be far less likely to abuse their position.

I think now might be a good time to privitize the police.

@illinoislibertarian The problem is that these are private police! All cities are corporations, therefore, they aren't held liable to the people as they were in the past. Look into it.
These cities own stocks in other big corporations and make money that way. The board of directors merely see their police officers as a "necessary evil"
Check into your own city. Check their CAFR (Comprehensive Annual Financial Report) and see what stocks and bonds that they own.

@illinoislibertarian Holy crap. You privatize police, and they'll work by their own corporate set of rules the way Credit Card companies do. They will lobby government to set laws that simply absolve them of federal laws since they are a private corporation. You will have zero recourse against a law officer who abuses his power if you privatize law enforcement. Think Blackwater. Only worse.

@SecondMarlowe Actually dont fully privitize them just a few regulations. They can only get pay increases if crime is low and punish them if it increases or if there are incidents of neglect and brutality.

@illinoislibertarian Fully privatizing them is a superior option. It sounds extreme at first, and that was my initial reaction as well, but I recommend Hoppe's /The Myth of National Defense/. It contains a pretty compelling argument in favor of privatizing the police and the military...

@SecondMarlowe Wrong. In a free market, the customer is always right. A privatized police force has a product to sell -- the enforcement of laws -- to a community. If the market is a free one, there will be competitor police forces. A nasty oppressive police force is going to lose on the market to one that upholds civil liberties. Socialized public safety is, like all other centrally planned elements of the economy, inferior to market alternatives.

Sometimes police actually think they may get to be federal agents or "work undercover" when they grow up, hence the overreaction. For the most part, they just want one side of the story - THEIR SIDE - to be documented.

Jurisdiction is usually "proven" at the point of a weapon, by the municipal "authorities". The most peaceful way of fighting back is either the public lawsuit or the private Commercial Lien. The latter is executed by the one victimized and is usually non-judicial (no judge is involved unless a review is requested). The Lien also is done "Sui Juris" (of one's own law) and does not involve attorneys or lawyers.

So this is called "the land of the free". U.S. is no different from totalitarian countries like Iran, or China. Where police can detain the press representatives and civil rights activists for exercising control of the state power apparatus.
In Denmark, it is allowed photographers to film and shoot pictures in all public areas, as long it is not for advertising. You may broadly shoot who you want, anywhere you want so long as the "victim" is not on private property.

Why do people have to be such dicks. I mean video taping a crash site nutting over it is such a dick move. The cops have to inform people of their loved ones being injured, videotaping the shit is just being an asshole. i am not against people video taping when appropriate, but some times people take shit too far.

Why do ALL cops seem to have such a huge problem with being videotaped? Every cop I see screams and cries like a rabid animal the instant they notice themselves being taped. If they didn't have anything to hide themselves, surely they wouldn't give a fuck about cameras being in the area, correct?

If the cops can film people with camera's in their cop cars that were paid for by tax payers, then we can film them any time we want. They just don't like it when people catch these criminals in uniforms breaking the law themselves.
