lol the stash your swag thing is dumb

now that you have told people where to hide there money ...arent those places exposed now ?

not being mean just wondering

[LCLREPORT]

The book has over 100 ideas, not just the 3 on the video. It recommends that you make at least 10 stashes so the chance of bad guys finding them all are very small. Plus those a basic ideas, you can modify them so they are original to you. Also I did not put all of them in there I kept a few good ones for myself.

[isthatthetruth]

many things that are PRIVATE in court and no need for some mouthy reporter to blab family matters all over the nation. when "reporters" just get "shock jock" fame from other people's misery on the road, or in court, someone needs to put up a fence of protection AGAINST them. on the other hand, i wonder why so MANY videos questioning thing about OBAMA somehow are so quickly "unavailable". obama geeks are intimidating the press to not speak up.

[LCLREPORT]

Privacy should be respected and given to the person being prosecuted if they don't want it filmed. The police, court and lawyers should not have that choice, they are public servants and there actions must no be hidden. We have it backwards, the Judges and cops get to decide if you can film instead of the victim. The victims freedom is on the line and they should have the choice if they want to be filmed or not.

You can post links in the description to the right but not in the comments.

Thanks Dale, I think that worked. Great advice!

The reason that the overseas lady got more press than the journalist here in our country is because US officials love to demonize other countries and then give Americans that false sense of freedom that they claim no one else has.

[TheMoravians]

Which "certain laws" would apply, gammyland?

Freedom of the press DOES mean that you can film with a camera wherever you want, on PUBLIC PROPERTY, but not on PRIVATE PROPERTY.

That's why the reporter was saying that he had been on the sidewalk, on PUBLIC PROPERTY, not obstructing traffic like the police was by pushing him into the street.

To physically make someone "obstruct traffic" and then claim to "enforce the law" with an arrest, is more like thuggery than law enforcement.

Disgusting.

@LCLREPORT I mean, these reporters are just doing their job! It wasn't like this many moons ago!

[boatbrain1]

Well, the reporters may have been abused, I am not sure about the reporter at the accident site, but as for the guy pushed into the street, that was at the Democratic Convention and the reason he was attacked was that he was standing outside a hotel where the big money contributors were going to meet with Democrat Party bigwigs, and the donors did not want the public to know their identities. Of course the cop was wrong but it's very unlikely this was a random act.

low educated angry drone with a badge. probably raised by a single female so as to be prone to emotional mood swings. no offense to mature females.

[MrMZaccone]

If you want to be credible, you might start by spelling controversy correctly.

[mozartgenetics]

I hope this guy prosecuted the cop. The cop is not above the 1st amendment. I cannot undertand why they allow anyone to be a cop in the first place.....and any agent of the government who is bonded as an officer is required to know the law. This man could easily prosecute the cop if he knows the law.

Welcome to the NWO sheeple sorry people

This is the new way there going to process you all even if you don't have a camera

"Sheeple" you are guilty till proven innocent this is called LAW ENFORCEMENT

Not innocent till proven guilty this is called SERVE AND PROTECT

You all need to arm your selves with cameras and magna carta or the same as

Also you need to start studying law and get your self a ( BLACK'S LAW DICTIONARY ) and also check out your STRAWMAN if your not sure SEE ( JORDAN MAXWELL

[Jman999000]
