    Daniel, I appreciate all that you are pointing out, but I suggest you left out an increasingly important additive, a Car Cam. Most car stops today are won, I believe, with these car cams that can dispute the Officer's manipulation of the driver's actions and responses. If no car cam, the secondary answer would be the Iphone in Video mode. What also is not mentioned, are the potential motivations of the traffic stop and manipulations of the Police Officer: he/she may be hoping for a raise or promotion to Detective or simply hope for a unit recognition as a conscientious Police Officer, or he/she may be encouraged by his Office to 'bring more revenue'. Excellent video.

    3rd strike offense doesn't necessarily mean a life sentence. I arrested a 25 time offender and prosecuted him as a repeat offender which required a mandatory life sentence. 6 months later I saw him walking the street. His medical condition, hiv, was too much of a liability to incarcerate him for life.

    Don't you just love how it's a "health and safety" law implying it's designed to protect people's health and safety whereas in fact it's designed to protect the gov't extortion racket where you have to pay them your hard-earned money to get permission to grow your own cannabis on your own property? It's amazing they don't charge you money to cook your own food on your own stove in your own house. They can make that a "health and safety" law as well and if you don't pay up, you will have to go to prison for your own health and safety! Yeah, there is so much "health and safety" in sending people to prison for not paying license fees to the gov't (read: extortion money) just so they can grow 7+ plants on their own property. The mental gymnastics politicians do with the language to obfuscate and conceal what they're actually doing is quite impressive. The bottom line is always "GIVE US MONEY and then we won't send you to prison for doing things in your own home on your own time with your own property." Yeah, that's the freedom-loving spirit!
