You have to give the good cops respect where its due, that cop was totally professional, courteous and respectful. Positive vibes like that goes a long way, its a shame more Police aren't like that to be honest. 👮🏻👍🏻
I was thinking that too and if you watch he studded with the window he wanted to say something smart assed so bad but thought twice and was probably better off LmFAo
That cop that came out should get a freaking award. He should immediately be promoted to training officer if I had the number for the police department and his name I would definitely be giving them a call
Honestly, I don't think he was on anyone's side. He was as courteous towards the Guard as he was with us. He just understood the law, quickly realized that we were doing nothing wrong, and did his job professionally. In my previous port video, Oakland PD did a good job as well. They have real crimes to deal with in Oakland. When they see someone filming at the Port, they probably think something like, "This is nothing. I'll take this call any day!"
Thanks for filming the cop/complainer convo. Many auditors film themselves talking to cops while the complainer stands and glares, freely listening in. But the complainer often gets the cop(s) all to himself, to say who knows what. This video, time stamp 12:20, breaks from that - good on 'ya.
Also I love how the reaction for most uneducated tyrants, is to pull out their phones and start recording you ! I also love when you do find a Police officer who agrees and stands with you ! You guys are brave and you have my support 100% .. Thank you for sharing .
What a great cop. I wish they were all that professioal and hope he reads this and lets people know the right way to handle things. Intimidation is not the way to for people to respect each other. Ive seen a few of you videos and love it...I am now subscribing
Its a great sign seeing all those container ships waiting to unload, Lower NY Harbor not a single ship for months.. Red Hook Brooklyn container port at a stand still...
A cool, professional peace officer, my hope has been restored. I thought all cops were corrupt ass holes. I was wrong, and I'm glad I was. God bless this officer !!!!!
HA HA HA!! The look on that security bloke's face when he was told that these could film as they were in a public place was priceless!! Absolutely choked!
i can understand the 1 way mirrors since they reserve the privacy of information within the booth, that is whole heartedly for the protection of any information being transposed within the booth
That one guy with the hat was on the private property and may have actually been breaking a law however u were not and u respected ur boundry so good for u
First Amendment Tests our audit at the Ben E. Nutter Terminal by itself maid my trip to the Bay Area totally worth it. You are a First Amendment Audit legend and it really was an honor to audit with you. I look forward to doing more filming with you in the future. You are a fascinating man.
I didn't think there was such a thing as a good Oakland police officer. I've definitely had a bad experience with them, in fact they've even stole some of my personal property on a stop one time.
My god....... if we had 10 million officers like this on the planet.......... the citizens would salute them everyday and love them like brothers and then protect them with their lives. I hate to pull him off the street to train officers but that would be the only way to duplicate his intelligent...... calm..... pr approach to Enforcement .
The booth is exactly as it should be. They don't want people seeing inside so they make it so instead of bothering people undertaking a constitutionally protected activity.
this cop did a good job, I would like to see one time a cop tell a complaint that... they are or he is exercising his first amendment right and if you keep harassing him I will arrest you! can you imagine that cop would become famous all most overnight. I was glad to see you walk up to where the cop was talking to the guy and record what was being said. do that more often. good job
QUESTION PLEASE: Why when a cop ask what you are doing they always answer gathering data for this and that instead of saying we are doing a first amendment audit/test ?
Best cop ever. If they could all be as professional and use common sense. He's literally 1 in a million!
The Build Really? Watch the video again. HINT Listen closely.
HINT, say what was so ulterior and secretly hidden.. Otherwise, this one was literally the best cop I have ever seen filmed on a 1st Amendment audit..
Agreed 100% Todd.
You have to give the good cops respect where its due, that cop was totally professional, courteous and respectful. Positive vibes like that goes a long way, its a shame more Police aren't like that to be honest. 👮🏻👍🏻
Osprey 125 agreed
That cop has to watch audit videos and been dying to be in one. He was SO READY, flashing smiles and everything
100 percent. He knew too much. lol
just got to the end. amazing amount of respect for that officer. seriously restored hope in our justice system.
with ya!
He wasnt a real cop though. He worked for the port.
He most certainly is a real cop. He works for the Oakland Police Department, and is simply assigned to the port. He could be reassigned at any time.
Amazing officer! Thank you sir for representing your profession so well!
Well! At last! A good, professional, educated cop. I know they're out there. It restores my faith in human nature.
Well done guys. Great vid.
At the end, "the window roll-up of shame"
Nicely put. I was thinking of putting up a subtitle such as "Drive of shame," but it didn't seem to fit. Your comment is spot on!
I was thinking that too and if you watch he studded with the window he wanted to say something smart assed so bad but thought twice and was probably better off LmFAo
Great video! Very refreshing to see an officer respond this way.
That cop that came out should get a freaking award. He should immediately be promoted to training officer if I had the number for the police department and his name I would definitely be giving them a call
Lol. You have his name. And you have the internet. (I agree, though - solid cop.)
Wow, I am impressed by how professional that cop was. I have honestly never seen them this polite and respectful.
If all law enforcement respected citizen's rights like this officer did, there would be no need for audits.
Great job by this officer.
The Cop made my day, he is so professional!
That's how all police should be..Good job Oakland PD! And Nathanial you're like a pit bull LMAO!!
We need more officers like him out in our world. Much respect to you officer if your viewing this audit.
Good cop right there! More need to follow this example!
Congratulations officer for being very respectful and knowledgeable about the law. You are an example to others!!
Very good job officer. one in a million.
Very professional officer one out of 1 million
Wtf? "Go eat a pepperoni pizza", lolol. That just made my night
Rarely do you see a cop arrive and be on the auditor's side. Nice job officer. Great vid too.
Honestly, I don't think he was on anyone's side. He was as courteous towards the Guard as he was with us. He just understood the law, quickly realized that we were doing nothing wrong, and did his job professionally.
In my previous port video, Oakland PD did a good job as well. They have real crimes to deal with in Oakland. When they see someone filming at the Port, they probably think something like, "This is nothing. I'll take this call any day!"
Yeah, maybe not the greatest choice of words but you didn't get the this day and age, give me some ID approach. That doesn't happen too often.
common sense Please watch and *listen* to the video again. smh
Sad but true.
SantaClaus HawkeyeNJ Nope
Perfect example of a professional cop. Hats off.
I'm just sitting here waiting for Mr. Fowler to come out of nowhere and tell you you can't film.
Under Chevron's law!
Yet another knowledgeable cop with a great attitude!
Thanks for filming the cop/complainer convo. Many auditors film themselves talking to cops while the complainer stands and glares, freely listening in. But the complainer often gets the cop(s) all to himself, to say who knows what. This video, time stamp 12:20, breaks from that - good on 'ya.
This video should be sent to every police academy to train officers how to deal professionally and courteously with citizen's rights!
the best cop i've seen and enjoyed listening to ....very polite and professional ....good luck guys..stay safe.
Give that Cop a Medal ;-)
I know right. That sew on patch badge looks cheezy.
What a well rounded officer. Very respectful to you and your rights. We need more like him. Great audit as always.
Every officer should be as professional as this gentleman. Good job on his part and on the photographers.
The guy that was with you was awesome you triggered the port worker so much. And I hate that no one knows our laws any more.
Great officer. This is one to show other officers what professionalism really is. Good job guys.
Also I love how the reaction for most uneducated tyrants, is to pull out their phones and start recording you !
I also love when you do find a Police officer who agrees and stands with you !
You guys are brave and you have my support 100% ..
Thank you for sharing .
Is nice to see a police officer being professional and also down-to-earth
This cop absolutely rocks!
Good to see good cops doing the right thing.
My hat is off to that officer, good job. And to you guys too, and TY.
GREAT OFFICER! A credit to the Oakland PD. Thank you!
What a great cop. I wish they were all that professioal and hope he reads this and lets people know the right way to handle things. Intimidation is not the way to for people to respect each other. Ive seen a few of you videos and love it...I am now subscribing
The best police officer I’ve seen in a 1st amendment audit.
He's in the good top 10 LEOs I've seen responding to an audit. Well done sir.
Its a great sign seeing all those container ships waiting to unload, Lower NY Harbor not a single ship for months.. Red Hook Brooklyn container port at a stand still...
Now this is the way LEO's should act, as a professional. My hat is off to him!
A cool, professional peace officer, my hope has been restored. I thought all cops were corrupt ass holes. I was wrong, and I'm glad I was. God bless this officer !!!!!
HA HA HA!! The look on that security bloke's face when he was told that these could film as they were in a public place was priceless!! Absolutely choked!
Always think it's funny when they try to scare you with the cam back
The drive of shame!!!! And that cop was awesome!!!!
Wow that cop is worth millions of dollars 👍🏽💯 great job sir.
i can understand the 1 way mirrors since they reserve the privacy of information within the booth, that is whole heartedly for the protection of any information being transposed within the booth
You guys should call the police department and talk about what a great guy this is.
This police officer should be training all police of people's rights.
That one guy with the hat was on the private property and may have actually been breaking a law however u were not and u respected ur boundry so good for u
First Amendment Tests our audit at the Ben E. Nutter Terminal by itself maid my trip to the Bay Area totally worth it. You are a First Amendment Audit legend and it really was an honor to audit with you. I look forward to doing more filming with you in the future. You are a fascinating man.
It was a pleasure to audit with you as well. I look forward to doing more work together in the future. Take care and stay safe.
haha. You can spell 'fascinating', but not 'made'.
NastyNathanial now who is nastynathania?
@@FirstAmendmentTests how come you don't do audits anymore? You two are my favorite by far! It's a new year get on it! From a Fan from the Windy City!
Just busy with life.
Other cops should take notice of this guy.. gave you respect he got it back... the security on the other hand.!!!!
If you're not doing anything wrong, like sleeping at your guard post, why do you fear being recorded?
LAUGHED so hard at landscape vs portrait.
Best of your videos I've seen yet lol. wasn't expecting all that.
That's how police should act. Thx so much
Really loved the cop response and understanding of the law
LOVE THAT COP
Police of America take note this officer is a credit to the police force this is how u should treat people well done sir 😎
I am a port driver for LA LB
And all port workers are divas
Best police interaction ever.. nice one!
3:00 I love your narration
If only other Cops were this good...
I love how that cop conducted himself.
I didn't think there was such a thing as a good Oakland police officer. I've definitely had a bad experience with them, in fact they've even stole some of my personal property on a stop one time.
phototristan what they steal
Great video quality! Thanks for sharing your vids
That cop was awesome. We need more like him.
My god....... if we had 10 million officers like this on the planet.......... the citizens would salute them everyday and love them like brothers and then protect them with their lives.
I hate to pull him off the street to train officers but that would be the only way to duplicate his intelligent...... calm..... pr approach to Enforcement
.
good to see a professional policeman for a change. Well done 10/10
I wish us in Canada had some of the rights you Americans have, I and a lot of us Canadians do !!
One more thing is officer S.HEWISON deserves a commendation..
Running through the archives!
The booth is exactly as it should be. They don't want people seeing inside so they make it so instead of bothering people undertaking a constitutionally protected activity.
Cool cop!
100% awesome vid ! the way it should go ... Kudos to the police dept !!!!!!!!!!!!
A VERY rare kind of LEO. Well done fellas.
Nice job guys...👍
Great video, thanks
I live in England and like to see different places people working and even the people who dont know the law lol,,,thanks guys
So ironic that big tough guys with so much to say are so scared of a camera.
Some people are just destined to walk through life fat and stupid...smh
"Go and eat some Pepperoni pizza" i lol'd
