If this guy had just walked away this video wouldn't even have been posted.. Instead he tells another citizen what he can and cannot do.. I don't know about you all, but when someone tells me I can't when I KNOW that I CAN, I'm going to push the issue with you just to MAKE THE POINT.
The simple fact that so many people believe the have control in public spaces is at least partially due to the poor education in rights that our schools give.. Citizens don't answer to the government..
bet he went to Harvard too :D the cameraman should have said oh your one of those obama guys thats always going on about you should be a good little pesant and get back to work for your leaders
being a prick and a bully by putting a video up with the intent of embarrassing someone is something that should not be protected. Malicious speech and slander are banned, and in this case Ridley is using "speech" to embarrass. Why does no one care about the student's rights? Shouldn't he have the right to not have a video posted about him without his consent? Shouldn't he have the right to prevent himself from being mocked without a chance to defend himself? You suck Ridley.
I'd like to clarify something. I was there for the filming of this video, and the student who is being insulted by all you cowards sitting behind screens was doing the job he was told to do. Through editing it appears the student came up to him, but what is not shown is that Ridley put a camera in his face (not to get harsh but based on looks and personality I doubt Ridley's been laid in ten years). When the student asked Ridley several times to stop filming Ridley gave him a smug smirk.
actually you can't film private citizens without consent. He wasn't a public worker, he was just a campaign volunteer. The maker of this video was being an ass. iam a Ron Paul supporter, but this guy was just being difficult
@Hughster49 what makes him a thug? asking him to stop filiming him? your right man Ridley really stuck it to the man here! Instead of getting candidates or business people who are ruining our country he got a college kid who accidently told him to move and then corrected his mistake and told Ridley he could stay. Your right, thug indeed. Thank god for ridley or we'd have nobody to tackle the important issues!
@aml5721 -Who is this idiot to tell anyone where they can stand and if they can film in a public place? He made himself the subject of Riley's video by sticking his nose where it didn't belong, next time maybe he will mind his own business.
@Hughster49 If you had read my earlier comment I said that I was there and Ridley instigated the whole thing by shoving a camera in the man's face, which he did not show through editing. Ridley is a prick who likes to instigate and cause people to react, and then whines about his rights after people get mad. Look at all his videos, there literally just him shoving cameras in people's faces. I repeat, thank god for Ridley he's really tackling the days most important issues!
@aml5721 -The guys own words "you can't be up here right now", "Oh your one of those Ron Paul, everything first and fourth amendment". The guy is an ass that thinks he has some kind of authority. Then he has the nerve to go to the police because he doesn't like being filmed in public (which is perfectly legal). This guy made himself to look like an idiot, he should have ignored Riley in the first place!
@Hughster49- He didnt think he had authority, and there was no sense of haste or anger in his voice. Do i think there's problems in this country, fuck yes, but I will have to say the assault on "liberty" and 'rights" that everybody's whining about here is not our biggest issue. as Americans we have more rights and freedom than any other place on Earth. stop whining about the first Amendment cause it's not going anywhere and no one's trying to get rid of it (no matter what ol' ron says).
@aml5721 -He walked up and said "you can't be up here right now", on who's authority is he telling another citizen where they can or can't be? Just because as Americans we have more rights does not mean we should give an inch.
You are incorrect, if you are in public you can be recorded, period. You have no recourse other than to stay home with your blinds closed.. Thats why its called PUBLIC!
If somebody says, hey you can't be here all whiny like, and then says "oh, your one of those Ron Paul, freedom guys", I would of kicked him in the nuts. That's because I believe in the freedom to kick people who are whiny and sarcastic.
lol what did he say "oh your one of those ron paul....freedom and fourth amendment" is that supposed to be an insult? or does upholding constitutional rights just really burn this guys ass?
what exactly did you do other than bother someone? Are you proud of yourself for that? Following around a jackass with a camera while you are even a larger jackass yourself? What a fucking retarded waste of time.
@truthslap better yet, lets do away with complete retards that set out to bother people and randomly record someone for no reason. What was this retard even supposed to be covering?
@jtors5 If you'd watch the video you'd learn he is filming the outside of Chubb Theatre in Concord during the fourteenth GOP debate, from a public sidewalk. you have a right to free press in this country, if you don't want to participate in that right that's your business, but nobody has a right to wrongfully impede others that do.
@truthslap well...he is very, very bad at his job then. He does nothing of what he is supposed to and spends his entire time acting like a retard. Yes, he has the freedom of press. That does cover acting like a complete jackass and bothering someone because he has nothing else better to do. However, having that freedom does not change that he is a complete jackass. The other person also has the freedom to ask a dickless jackass to please stop recording him for no reason.
@jtors5 it's as if you'd just decided to ignore the entire first half of this video. the reporter wasn't looking for trouble, this student volunteer accosted him for filming from the sidewalk, then mocked his political positions, and then cried to the cops because he didn't want to be filmed. you can't just start from the last half of the confrontation, context is usually important.
@truthslap Listen, the guy with the camera is a complete jackass. He tries to turn harassing someone into a freedom of the press issue. He wasn't covering this man. If the other guy was equally retarded, he easily could have turned it into a freedom of speech issue. He is ridiculed for asking not to be filmed. He could have said "WHAT, DON'T I HAVE FREEDOM OF SPEECH TO ASK NOT TO BE FILMED?" "ARE YOU DENYING MY RIGHT TO ASK A QUESTION?"
@jtors5 you don't have a right to obstruct other people's rights, the student volunteer initiated this whole thing by trying to stop him from filming a public event. you don't have a right to try to stop me filming a public event from a sidewalk, and then demand that I not film you. If somebody doesn't want to be filmed they can always walk away.
i dont want to be on youre camera ....well dont walk up to said fucking camera ..are these guys pricks or what....that alone proves they are trying to start somthing just out of sheer prejudice,he got a bee in his bonnet,,then ran to a cop to save his ego.a candidate for fanny baws of the year and its only recorded and posted in the 1st month.its going to be a fanny bawed filled year.go ridley go ridley expose these jokers who couldnt spell ammendment never mind say it lol he says 1st appoitnmed
does`nt a pedo have the same rights also to tape your little sis or daughter in a public place. Is he just exercising his right to film in public places. fucking idiots
@tomasbobby Well the government is full of pedophiles and they have cameras on every street corner in every store all around you watching your movements 24/7. I was in a playground after dark and you wouldn't think there was cameras until a voice from an intercom next to the playground told us to leave the premises and the police have been notified of intruders. Yes pedophiles have the same right to film whatever they want, too bad all those pedophiles are working for the government.
@tomasbobby As a matter of fact, he is. If you are in a public place (such as a sidewalk) than you can be filmed just like everyone else. This is why the paparazzi get away with what they do.
@pchristopher99 the student initiated this by trying to infringe on Ridley's right to free press, the reporter wasn't looking for trouble and didn't "go after" anybody.
Neocons and liberals are trying their best create the illusion that they are the only choices available in America. Ron Paul proves that is entirely false.
So if I reserve a tent at a public park for my daughters birthday, you're just gonna come and film because you CAN, even after I politely ask you not to? Just cus it's legal doesn't make it okay, Ridley. The college student was doing volunteer work and didn't want people who weren't helping to be in the way.
I like the Ridley videos but in this case, the guy was right. Sometimes it's not all about what is and isn't illegal. It's about being respectful of others' lives. He admit he was wrong and left you alone. Just cus you're allowed to be on the sidewalk when it's blocked off doesn't mean you HAVE to be. They're just trying to do their days work. DICK.
You're kind of a dick Ridley. This dude obviously is just camera/video shy. He was probably just doing his job, and he even came back to say you're ok to stand here. Then he asked you to not use his image and you started to be a jackass. I support individual rights, but what about respect. This video isn't even enteraining in any way. It seems like you threw this together and up just to stick it to the guy. OOOO he really violated your rights.
Democrats always talk about "freedom" but under very narrow circumstances...but when they get into trouble where do they run to-aahhh yes of course-the CONSTITUTION. So we get it now don't we? ONLY when they NEED the constitution is it VALID! Ask Bill Clinton that ONE! Or this demeroid in the white house!
why do you go everywhere and just try to start shit with everyone about everything? He was being so polite, and you sit there and harass him, and you see his irritation as a hate attack against you? Anyone would get pissed with a camera in their face.
I honestly think this guy was having a bad day, you can see it in his face. And then Ridley showed up and ruined his day all the way. Haha. Just saying.
I do have to ask, why is a Democrat student volunteering at a Republican event? I am a Libertarian and I would rather be force fed cold bacon fat than attend any Democratic Event.
i love that he mocks rights and freedoms, cannot believe that there are americans that think like this no wonder why this country is turning to shit day by day
Now you are getting to be a lowlife wiseguy there Ridley. You and your other so called activists are one of the reasons why Ron Paul is losing that you put him to shame. I hope one of these days you say that to the wrong person and get knocked out for it. Obviously you went there to start trouble.
And all you fucking whiners who think this guy is an asshole because he was a little bit mean and used Ron Pauls name you are really a bunch of fucking pussies. Liberty does not mean be fucking hippy who wants to be friends with everybody. You know what Ron Paul said about his meating with Bruno? That he should have decked him!! Liberty is not about being friends with everybody, jesus fuck people are so annoying when they become these idol worshippers.
@ITSALLFYA are you clear on the purpose of journalism? about what it is supposed to represent? Perhaps you are confused because the msm has thoroughly abdicated their responsibilities, their sacred responsibilities (4th estate), to protect the people's right to unfiltered, uncensored information? You deserve to know that real journalists "irritate" as a matter of course, as a matter of getting to or uncovering the truth. Irritating behavior by journalists should be encouraged in a free society
The guy didn't want to be taped.. most people would stop out of respect. He never got aggressive with you or anything, you were the one being obnoxious. I'm kind of disappointed that these actions are associated with Ron Paul in any way at all.
That democrat dicator was such a douchebag. Trying to use all his double talk bullshit to throw Ridley off. But that crap doesnt work when u know your rights and the laws as an American citizen.
Love the rent-a-cop though. Saying " I think if someone says u cant tape them, then u cant tape them." That was hilarious. Fricken tool..
It is fully his right to be there and to film and the other who want to impede him to stay is an asshole. On this I agree. But he also can understand that other people do not want to be recorded on tape. He would be the first to claim that each of us could be master his own image. That is also freedom to own oneself.
look at this lil seth rogen mr no personality wanna b,is it me or everybody who was there were acting like souless robots who all have the gene of fear inside them ?
What a douche, if he hadn't gone up to him with a macho attitude saying that he couldn't be there unless he had the special pass then he wouldn't have been filmed, stupid asshole.
I don't see any problem with you filming in a public place. But when the guy asked you to stop filming him you should have. I know i would get agitated if you were standing next to me and just filming me. I think that guy handled you still filming him afterwards a lot better than i would have.
@TheGrayman1234 i'm sure you're right but it came across as being very infantile to keep taping someone who doesn't like it. even if he has every right to do so. he's still an ass for not stopping, and the 'college-student' a cry-baby for handling the situation like he did.
@Epostaxis Well, (not speaking for the poster but myself) it is more of a record/security concern for me. If I am covering a news event and a guy walks up to me and basically ordering me to do something, I am filming him. I would not be taping him just to tape him, but HE initiated contact with ME to order me to do something. Yeah, I am going to have a record of the whole interaction with me and to do that you HAVE to have the film rolling.
Someone with a higher IQ could have seen this as an opportunity to peacefully present the case for liberty, and even demonstrate by example. on the contrary, someone as short-sighted and infantile as Ridley saw it as an opportunity to fight and encourage increased aggression with "what are you gonna do about it, you gonna stop me?" And worse yet, his actions were associated with Ron Paul.
@LotharioRowe Oh just fuck off dude, Yeah Ron Paul is now suddenly not become president because on this youtube video with 3000 views someone said something bad and was associated with ROn Paul. Jesus, I am a Ron Paul supporter but he is not fucking God or something.
I'm thumbed this down and I'm a RP supporter, this sorta stuff is just stupid, if you're going to go around "raging against the machine" all day, for Pete's sake keep Ron Pauls name out of it!
@motter28218 what kind of Ron Paul supporter doesn't support the right to film in public? this was a public event, and he was standing on a public sidewalk, he had every right to do it. this is exactly the sort of thing Ron Paul supports, your freedom to assemble, film and speak your mind.
@truthslap The kind who realizes we are in an election maybe? I don't care if he had the "right" to do it, the point is did he gain votes by that behavior, or chase them away? Just because you have the right to annoy people doesn't mean you should.
@motter28218 we should feel confident that most Americans would realize the importance of what he was doing, nobody should be forced to capitulate to unreasonable and illegal demands. the student volunteer tried to tell the guy he wasn't allowed to film from the sidewalk, then realized the guy knew his rights and became passive-aggressive and mocked "Ron Paul people", and then complained to police because he didn't want to be filmed. the student was 100% at fault here.
@truthslap Yes, and we should also feel confident most Americans wouldn't vote for guys like Bush and Obama, but they do. We can sit around all day talking about what American's SHOULD do, and likely I'd agree with you, fact is tho most Americans don't think like you and I, "right" or not, what Mr. Ridley did made a scene and ticked people off and for what? You have to know when and where to fight your battles and to do it in a smart way is all I'm saying.
@motter28218 I agree with your sense of pragmatism, but I just figure this particular video's intentions should be clear to the majority of people. you're right that not everybody has the same values as us, but I feel confident that even the masses can distinguish the hero and villain in this video, anybody who values their right to record in public should feel they a stake in these situations.
@icanadian18 was the student being respectful to him? trying to obstruct someone's right to free press is a scandalous hostile act, I don't see any reason that Ridley should have been respectful in his rebuff of the student's unwarranted advances.
Sad this Ridley guy is associated with the Ron Paul peace movement. What a complete d-bag. Scumbags like this disgust me, and worse, its an embarrassment to myself and the whole liberty movement. How about you learn what actual peaceful interaction looks like you antagonistic punk.
@LotharioRowe Clearly you sound like antagonistic punk. Strange how you ignore Ridley's right to video tape in a public place and the fact that he's also a member of the media.
The author obviously is a jerk, and the guy is really polite amd i think you cant shoot other people without their permition, only if you are a journalist, so i just want you to know you are a douchebag!
I hate it when people come up to you and start lying , like Oh! you cant be here. Then they comes back after asking about it and say " oh yea its ok for you to be here". Wow , you have to be part of a licensed group to film in public?
Well Ridley wasss kinda being an asshole but that other dude wassss kinda getting in his business for no reason. I bet that dude cries. He just looks like a cryer
wow guy politely asked you to leave and do his job so you just decide to screw his day over by sticking a camera in his face after he politely asked you to stop
your a jackass i hate people like you that feel its their right to harass someone, the only reason you continued to tape him is because he requested you didn't. That should be considered as harassment and bullying
@brandonmckay123 He continued to tape the guy because he put himself into the scene. If he'd had just left the guy with the camera (Ridley) alone I doubt he'd even get noticed.
Do you really expect Ridley to not tape the guy trying to get him kicked off a public sidewalk? After he realized Dave was not going to leave he should have just shut up and I'm pretty sure Ridley would have walked off to film something more interesting.
and where are being chased down? can we see that too? End when did he try to stop you from filming you? he merely asked you in a polite way.
you got some serious problems dude, have you talked about your paranoia to your Psychologist? i think it is not yet too late, but don't wait much longer.
Oh, another stupid turd who makes Ron Paul look bad.
Lets see, its a government conspiracy. The CIA is trying to stop you from filming and being on the sidewalk.
You know, maybe you will stop being a toddler, get friends and balls, and give other people some respect. Yes, you have the right to be annoying, it makes you no less of a turd.
Stop making the other supporters look bad. You have no life.
That college student walks up like he has authority and starts fucking with the guy with the camera and trying to control him. The camera guy stands up for himself and give him a dose of his own medicine after. He got whats coming to him.
When is everyone going to learn the "Law" as it relates to Video/Audio taping the public? Come on people...can't anyone have a proper rebuttle regarding this matter? If you are going to engage in conversation in any event, the least you can do is be prepared to use the "Law" to your advantage. Just a thought.
Like the kid said, he was a democrat. So he's obviously unaware of what the rights of the people are. But when he came back with the correction that you can stay there, that should have been the end of it.
@PeaceRallyOrg I totally agree, at first the "student" was trying to control the "reporter." After, when he realized he was wrong, he came up and said "no, you can stay here." End of discussion, right? Why did he have to continue to antagonize the student?
@SpaceGhosty33 I don't think Dave Ridley was antagonistic at any time. I think this arrogant and antagonistic student has full control over his emotions and his interpretation of events that occur around him. The kid was a jerk from start to finish and the whole situation really is HIS problem. That's the lesson to take away from this imo.
pussy ass people up there in NH, seriously. If you did that here in Miami, sure, you have a right to film, but if you piss off the wrong person, expect a public beat down in public property. Don't try that down here on anyone. I say this for your safety.
@EdMan2012 Try a "public beat down" here in NH is considered a deadly force assault. That wouldn't go over very well with many of our concealed carrying residents. Good way to get shot.
You really didn't need to antagonize the man by constantly filming him. He's just there volunteering through his college. He asked you nicely to stop filming him. He was not worth filming for so long.
He's a student cause he's still learning, he still doesnt understand how reporting works so I guess he better stay there for a few more years... OR if he has already been attending a while, he needs to consider changing schools since he is quite unnaware of how things actually work in the "reporting" world. Dumb socialist kid. haha I'm probably a lot younger than that guy, but still c'mon even I'm not that prissy and ignorant.
what a stupid person. He starts off by looking for a fight by pretending to be important, as if he is coordingatng the event, when in fact all he did was stand around. Next, he makes up laws, or at least attempts to, by telling a journalist he isn't allowed there, so he goes to to officer, and comes back with a "you're good here."
I would have shot that camera right out of his hands. Stupid Republicans Ron Paul it far too old to be president.

@jtors5 you don't have a right to obstruct other people's rights, the student volunteer initiated this whole thing by trying to stop him from filming a public event. you don't have a right to try to stop me filming a public event from a sidewalk, and then demand that I not film you. If somebody doesn't want to be filmed they can always walk away.

@tomasbobby Well the government is full of pedophiles and they have cameras on every street corner in every store all around you watching your movements 24/7. I was in a playground after dark and you wouldn't think there was cameras until a voice from an intercom next to the playground told us to leave the premises and the police have been notified of intruders. Yes pedophiles have the same right to film whatever they want, too bad all those pedophiles are working for the government.

@tomasbobby As a matter of fact, he is. If you are in a public place (such as a sidewalk) than you can be filmed just like everyone else. This is why the paparazzi get away with what they do.
