“ *Those who are capable of tyranny are capable of perjury to sustain it* .” “... *only those who have the will and the power to shoot down their fellow men, are the real rulers in this, as in all other (so-called) civilized countries; for by no others will civilized men be robbed, or enslaved* .” ― Lysander Spooner, No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority *"So these villains, who call themselves governments, well understand that their power rests primarily upon stolen money* . *With money they can hire soldiers, and with soldiers extort money* . *And, when their authority is denied, the first use they always make of money, is to hire soldiers to kill or subdue all who refuse them more money* ." *-The payment of taxes, being compulsory, of course furnishes no evidence that any one voluntarily supports the Constitution* . *It is true that the theory of our Constitution is, that all taxes are paid voluntarily; that our government is a mutual insurance company, voluntarily entered into by the people with each other; that each man makes a free and purely voluntary contract with all others who are parties to the Constitution, to pay so much money for so much protection, the same as he does with any other insurance company; and that he is just as free not to be protected, and not to pay any tax, as he is to pay a tax, and be protected* . *But this theory of our government is wholly different from the practical fact* . *The fact is that the government, like a highwayman, says to a man: Your money, or your life* . *And many, if not most, taxes are paid under the compulsion of that threat* ;. *The government does not, indeed, waylay a man in a lonely place, spring upon him from the road side, and, holding a pistol to his head, proceed to rifle his pockets* . *But the robbery is none the less a robbery on that account; and it is far more dastardly and shameful* . *The highwayman takes solely upon himself the responsibility, danger, and crime of his own act* . *He does not pretend that he has any rightful claim to your money, or that he intends to use it for your own benefit* . *He does not pretend to be anything but a robber* . *He has not acquired impudence enough to profess to be merely a “protector,” and that he takes men’s money against their will, merely to enable him to “protect” those infatuated travellers, who feel perfectly able to protect themselves, or do not appreciate his peculiar system of protection* . *He is too sensible a man to make such professions as these* . *Furthermore, having taken your money, he leaves you, as you wish him to do* . *He does not persist in following you on the road, against your will; assuming to be your rightful “sovereign,” on account of the “protection” he affords you* . *He does not keep “protecting” you, by commanding you to bow down and serve him; by requiring you to do this, and forbidding you to do that; by robbing you of more money as often as he finds it for his interest or pleasure to do so; and by branding you as a rebel, a traitor, and an enemy to your country, and shooting you down without mercy, if you dispute his authority, or resist his demands* . *He is too much of a gentleman to be guilty of such impostures, and insults, and villanies as these* . *In short, he does not, in addition to robbing you, attempt to make you either his dupe or his slave* . *The proceedings of those robbers and murderers, who call themselves “the government,” are directly the opposite of these of the single highwayman* . *In the first place, they do not, like him, make themselves individually known; or, consequently, take upon themselves personally the responsibility of their acts* . *On the contrary, they secretly (by secret ballot) designate some one of their number to commit the robbery in their behalf, while they keep themselves practically concealed* . *They say to the person thus designated:* *Go to A- B-, and say to him that “the government” has need of money to meet the expenses of protecting him and his property* . *If he presumes to say that he has never contracted with us to protect him, and that he wants none of our protection, say to him that that is our business, and not his; that we choose to protect him, whether he desires us to do so or not; and that we demand pay, too, for protecting him* . *If he dares to inquire who the individuals are, who have thus taken upon themselves the title of “the government,” and who assume to protect him, and demand payment of him, without his having ever made any contract with them, say to him that that, too, is our business, and not his; that we do not choose to make ourselves individually known to him; that we have secretly (by secret ballot) appointed you our agent to give him notice of our demands, and, if he complies with them, to give him, in our name, a receipt that will protect him against any similar demand for the present year* . *If he refuses to comply, seize and sell enough of his property to pay not only our demands, but all your own expenses and trouble beside* . *If he resists the seizure of his property, call upon the bystanders to help you (doubtless some of them will prove to be members of our band)* . *If, in defending his property, he should kill any of our band who are assisting you, capture him at all hazards; charge him (in one of our courts) with murder, convict him, and hang him* . *If he should call upon his neighbors, or any others who, like him, may be disposed to resist our demands, and they should come in large numbers to his assistance, cry out that they are all rebels and traitors; that “our country” is in danger; call upon the commander of our hired murderers; tell him to quell the rebellion and “save the country,” cost what it may* . *Tell him to kill all who resist, though they should be hundreds of thousands; and thus strike terror into all others similarly disposed* . *See that the work of murder is thoroughly done, that we may have no further trouble of this kind hereafter* . *When these traitors shall have thus been taught our strength and our determination, they will be good loyal citizens for many years, and pay their taxes without a why or a wherefore* . *It is under such compulsion as this that taxes, so called, are paid* . *And how much proof the payment of taxes affords, that the people consent to support “the government,” it needs no further argument to show* . *Lysander Spooner (1870)*

@@aaronmontgomery2055 If your conduct at work did merit termination for violating company policy, you could definitely lose your benefits.

@@1SCme while you are most likely correct about trying to fire him and remove his pension one month from retirement I sorely wish that any legal action that would be taken could be taken against this officer directly rather than against the department as a whole. Any pain felt from this encounter should be his pain not the pain of the entire city. As things turned out he just got early retirement so no harm to him whatsoever.
Its BS. These police in small communities doing this dumb shit give out substancial, taxpayer paydays that are often desperately needed for local services. Officers should be held liable to pay some, if not all of these penalties. It also, as far fetched as it sounds, potentially creates situations/scams where kickbacks and paybacks can occur under the guise of civil rights violations.
Yup. I could have sworn that police are supposed to uphold this little thing called the Constitution. Imagine the rights this guy violated during his tenure in law enforcement.
"I'm not politically correct" No one said you had to be, but it's literally your job to enforce the actual law... The fact that this dude was chief means his entire department needs to get recycled with fresh faces. Who knows how much his rot runs down that department.
That was one of the most disturbing parts to me - that he said "I'm not politically correct" as if to imply that following the law and observing Constitutional rights is a matter of political correctness.
@Draevon May Sorry, I interpreted "before cameras" as meaning "in front of media cameras", rather than what I now understand as "before cameras were invented or used". :)
It’s not clearly established that he has a constitutional right to record in the 6th Circuit. It’s also not necessarily clearly established that one has a right to record in this specific circumstance. There is no case that I know of with remotely similar facts that said a journalist/photographer had a right. A case where there is imminent danger which could be exasperated by the presence of a videographer. Typically the courts have sided with the authorities if interfering was involved. A guy in a tower threatening what he did...and a videographer inserting himself? I haven’t seen it.
Y’all right. However I think it’s just bc the guy was legit killing himself and this guy wants to go record lol. I’m watching the vid rn while reading comments but I’m already kind of against this audit just because there’s a place and time to do that not when someone is literally on the verge of killing themselves
If anyone is still watching these after a few years, there was a settlement of $95,000 for the unlawful arrest. Seems far from fitting that the Chief of Police who didn't know how to handle themselves and their position was awarded his retirement after breaking the law, while the tax payers have to pay for the mistake.
On one side we have a potential suicider with his life at stake. On another - psychopathic fatso, who took 100k of taxpayers money just because he was denied a pleasure to make yet another snuff film by not so nice means. I mean, be that encounter illegal, but 100k for 24 hours? Seriously? Is he running a business on sucking your money through goverment pockets, using human life as a leverage to masquarade his sick pleasure with "protected liberties"? Is this really what your grandpas died for? I dunno, man. Be this another encounter, like a water pipe leak or even comitted homicide scene, it would be somewhat ok. But this right here - i cant understand how you actually can support this sucker. You know, sometimes people sue for one penny plus expenses just to make a point. I would've respect that. But he clearly runs a racketeering business. I think as a citizen one should not support such behavior.
@Intotheunknown11 he should've got 0 for being a leech. He came running to luvestream of suicide, most likely in hopes of being arrested to get that check. That kind of behavior is sickening.
The Troopers were soooooo much better than the chief was. They asked a favor, they were courteous, they didn't lie or threaten, and the man with the camera cooperated.
Nah, not "fired without cause", more like "forced retirement". He committed so many offenses during that interaction he could be charged and jailed if the Auditor really wanted to.
@Long Duck Dong Why do we as citizens allow these kinds of rules to be ok; Fired without cause; if they fired him without cause, he must have a big fat lawsuit waiting for him somewhere. If I can get my pension from my workplace, I can be the biggest tyrant in the office; I have nothing to lose. So, basically what they're saying is, these rules are set in place because they absolutely know the officers are assholes.
@@rhondamarshall3574 well I mean I'm pretty sure his qualified immunity is toast so a good portion of that big fat retirement check could go to the auditor every month.
he was clearly in the wrong here but i would find it hard to justify stripping the man of his pension and benefits based on this one interaction. no doubt he has been an A-hole like this in other encounters but to paint a mans entire (likely 30+ year) career in this light and stripping him of the benefits he worked for and earned would not be right.
The Chief eats his words as the Crusader tells him .." I'm not gonna learn the hard way, you are." The Chief replies, " No I'm not"...He was fired at the city council meeting three days later. Yes you will learn the hard way copper, former copper. You now are an example as we study case law around the world. Chief, you are a law-breaker yourself. The badge and false power he was hiding under/behind and abusing all these years has reared its head. The swagger he had and badge he had are stripped as is his character and integrity. Touche and kudos to Crusaders.
The one time they “fire” someone, they do it to an egotistical oldhead who was probably gonna either die or retire in a few years anyway. They only acted to save their public image
I think he just wanted to stop someone from committing suicide in front of him. He's probably seen a lot of horrible shit. Deserves to be removed because rights must be respected, but this was not an ego trip imo..
@@elvishards8161 no, he was concerned about whoever he was talking to. The guy with the ego is the jackass with the camera crying about "muh rights"!!!!!!!
I cant believe that these cops never say anything like "im aware of your rights i know i cant make you, but im asking please, do what i ask for the sake of peoples lives." Humans respond well to that sort of conduct.
Good point, but they shouldn't think a guy hundreds of feet away with a camera is interfering to begin with. It's all in their heads. They should have to watch a few hours of Audit the audit as part of their training.
It would have been a different outcome if he had just asked as you say, but he decided to be a bully with a badge, the free right to do whatever he wants to because he's the top bully- what a wanker!
Depends on his age and years of service. He may have no insurance and may not have received full pension due to not having accrued the years of service. And if he is not old enough to collect SSI then his pension will not be enough to live on.
While I agree with you in principle, if a police officer is punished (by having money paid from HIS pension fund) when ANOTHER police officer does something bad, then first you are punishing people who did nothing wrong, and secondly you are encouraging police officers to protect each other. Both of which are bad. I do agree that it's important that police officers have to pay when they do something wrong, but this is not the way to do it.
How about we just bonus cops for uncovering corruption within the department’s. 100,000 tax free money and you’ll have department rats all over the place
@patrykszczepanski773 if a cop pointed a gun at your head, would you not want to fight back? You must be an alien from Mars Even if there was no gun involved, would you not fight back against a kidnapping?
@@patrykszczepanski773yes, exactly. Because he has a badge thry can put hands on you yet if someone without one does and you can defend yourself. Get the hell out of here
@@GraveMemoriesI mean, the cop has weapons and training. Odds are not in the average citizen’s favor if they try to physically fight an officer. That’s why the system gives options to fight it out in court at a later time and be compensated for damages done. As flawed a system as it is, it’s a much better option than just allowing people to fight back when and to the level they personally believe at the time.
This interaction was probably the best the police chief could hope for. He got removed from his position but kept his pension and benefits so basically he violated someone's rights and his punishment was an earlier retirement with no criminal or civil charges. Cops: 2. Anyone else: 0.
@@codycausey3341 I'd say the win here is that the chief is no longer the chief, and he can't violate anyone else's rights. It's not much, but I'll take what I can get.
Let's not forget that the auditor can still drag this pig to court over this. He definitely should since he was fired and somehow kept his pension. I don't think this piggy should enjoy a peaceful early retirement.
Exactly. I grew up despising cops but it turned out that my small town was just corrupted with those idiots. Cops in that town did nothing but bait for speeders, take 20+ minutes to get to you in a >500-people-town, and never took reports so repeats of an incident were as if it’s the first. A lot of small towns need to have better training or something.
Tell me about it. I got charged with disorderly conduct for being physically assaulted by my step brother and his mother and then threatened to arrest ME????
Small Midwestern town here as well. Right by Lake of the Ozarks. We have a great community and I've never heard of a local officer abusing their power. Hell, I was walking home through school property with a bottle of Crown in my hands at about 1am. Cop stopped and asked me, "Wtf are you doing? This is a school you dumbass. Get in the car." He took me home and told me to go to bed. Never even asked for ID.
Not true. That statement is in fact a validation of the chief's contention that he was dealing with a life or death matter and the right to broadcast a salacious "death jump" had no Constitutional significant. The analysis in this video is fundamentally flawed. Please see my full comment above.
@@robertlaw4073 I disagree completely. The fact he is caught on video saying he doesn't care about his rights while not interfering in that situation is a serious flaw in how interactions should be handled. Those words can be used against him because he is sworn to uphold and protect the public's Constitutional rights.

He lost his job but there was no point, they need to strip pension and benefits when disciplining officers who break the law. Edit: If not this, then SOME kind of strict reform and harsh punishments need to be in place. It's fine to criticize my idea (yes, it's definitely very flawed), but at least I'm putting forth an idea. If you're gonna say it's a bad idea(not denying it isn't, but it's still better than nothing), at least follow up with your own.
His being a month away from retiring probably played a bigger role than his behavior in getting him fired. He lost nothing except maybe a little esteem.
Every arrest he's ever made need to be reviewed, he said out of his own mouth he doesn't care about people's rights.... I'm sure this isn't the first time he's made an arrest without caring about their rights.

@@RendezvousWithRama until a serious overhaul happens in the police unions it is almost impossible for good cops to stand up and testify against bad cops. Unfortunately any testimony against bad cops by good cops is tantamount to career suicide for the good cops. They are almost always blackballed, shifted into horrible shifts and the worst neighborhoods. They almost always are left out to twist in the wind when they call for backup when they need assistance. Unfortunately, in order to keep their job they are essentially forced to keep quiet. If not directly ordered to remain silent, history shows the consequences of speaking out. Until the unions are stripped of their power and police are stripped of their blanket, qualified immunity, I see very little changing when it comes to officers reporting other officers. The one advantage we have now that wasn't around 15-20 years ago is that the public's eyes are more open than they have ever been to the outrageous actions of police. And now we have the power to record and report these infractions. We have seen recently that a large public outcry supported by video evidence can bring change. Unfortunately it is going to take longer than it should because we are doing it alone since the police aren't doing anything to assist in cleaning their own houses.
@@doctortow6244 Many fields have internal politics that prevent smooth function. Academia. Government. Police. Essentially it boils down to this: speak up, and your life is harder. Don't speak up, and your life is easier. And, in this case, it's cops who are there to uphold the law not speaking up when the law is violated - in order to make their lives easier. There is a term for that: crooked cops. And yes, you could say that this is just a product of their environment, but you could also say that about many criminals who are arrested and sent to prison. I'm all for police reform, including better social integration, deescalation training, better education in policing law, and better accountability. These are things we will hopefully address in the near future. But that does not excuse current abuse of public trust, or complicity in its abuse.

Wanna bet he asked his subordinates to go over there and tell him to leave but was told they didn't have the authority to do that, and so he decided to do it on his own. Of course, if any of the officers there came out and said that to the press or anything like that, then they could probably kiss their career goodbye within law enforcement. Like a local government gang, they look out for one another, and i bet the next chief that was elected was also on real good terms with the mayor and city manager.
Completely wrong. The 2 troopers were intimidated by him and that set up the chief to have to come in and shut him down hard. What we don't really know even is whether Mr. Rosche complied by goint to the pole and staying at the pole. The officers seem basically not to care when they walk away... he is the one who says, "is that pole OK". Well, do you think the jumper was able to see him over the pole. Or, more importantly, did those officers consider that, or were they now thinking more about their own records and pensions than the life of the jumper. The Chief here did what had to be done. He could have done it without the drama, but frankly, he probably didn't really want to arrest Mr. Rosche. Probable because he made some assumptions about Mr. Rosche based on his race and appearance. He should have just matter-of-factly had him arrested. No discussion needed. No tantrum needed. But frankly what Mr. Rosche probably needed was a good ass-whoopping to learn that other people's lives aren't less important than him and his facebook live-stream. Sadly, no ass-whoopings for narcicist phone-streamers in this day and age.
Technically his pension is paid for by his and his employer contributions during the life of his employment; it does not come out of taxpayer revenue at all.
@@MrRyan-wu4jx It comes from a contract negotiation between the agency and the union. It is part of the compensation to which he is entitled. Don't get me wrong, the officer is not qualified to do the job any longer, but he did earn the pension.

robert appel - I have to respectfully disagree with you. There is nothing "old school" about power hungry a_s hole cops. Today's younger cops suffer from the exact same illness.

But there does seem a lack of any real punishment and he just leaves an example for the other cops after him.
Just like anyone else, but because people are conditioned to act and react in particular situations things like this happen. Being so close to retirement you'd think common sense would have been more on his mind.... oh i forgot he was owed because of that badge.
@@YTDE426 yea just like the thing this chief does instead of knowing the law. Disgrace cost us 95k for being like this and then retired. His whole career amounts to nothing, on that alone.
Im amazed the Police-Chief who did absolutely nothing wrong by; cough cough; 'objective standarts of Reality' was outright FIRED. Some Laughable Contistution you Ameircans got there. Endangering a Sui-idal Person is SO PROTECTED as an 'act of dumbf-ckery' that EVERYONE who tries to do something against it will literally lose their job
Given the fact that he was able to retire with all benefits I’d say the Chief won this case. Basically earned an early retirement. How many officers g did he affect during his career. We all know this behavior trickle down so who knows how many bad officers he produced
That damage seems to be somewhat limited. As the 2 under his command, in the initial interaction (not calling it a confrontation, because it wasn't) did do the right thing. But agreed, that was more likely despite the Chief, than because of him.
@@Lightseekerjoben Was he though? If he was trying to save a life shouldn't he have been directly helping? Instead of being nearly 500 feet away from the incident and screaming about how he doesn't care about people('s rights)? Like if I overheard the police chief yelling how he doesn't care about people's rights I would be Less likely to turn myself over to mental health professionals. Who can already hold you for a number of days for no reason and give you no contact with a lawyer or the outside world. The people Actually trying to save lives were the ones with direct contact with the suspect who were keeping them distracted from the aggressive chief with a gun on his hip.
In 2017, I was running an activity with a local Christian school that was "The Amazing Race" themed. I got special permission with date and timeframe from the courthouse and Sheriff's office to have a clue on a sign in the front lawn of the court house. Teams were given instructions on where to park, where to find the clue, and instructions on the clue for where to go next. The police chief decided it was necessary to stop every one of the 12 teams (of two HSers and one adult) two blocks past the courthouse and ask them "what the H they were running down the street for in the middle of the night" (um... 7pm on a Saturday night). He was threatening to take "all you MFers to jail." I wound up on the phone with one of my leaders and then spoke to the chief, explaining that we cleared it with the courthouse AND the SO and that this stop was on a public sidewalk. After finally releasing the first 3 or 4 teams with stern, nonsensical "warnings," he proceeded to stop every subsequent team over the next 40 minutes or so and grill them too. That was an unplanned "detour." Good job teams. You passed it. The next fall, we did another event and this time asked the sheriff's office to inform the chief of what were doing in the park and to leave us alone. They were happy to oblige. Seeing him in this video... I'm not the slightest bit surprised. What a jerk.

He doesn't have to because his rights are irrelevant when they create a life or death risk to another individual. The chief understood more about the Constitution than the host of this video (actually I think he understands, but glosses over it in order to keep up the theme of "bad cops"). Certainly he had a better grasp of "balancing" required by the Supreme Court than most of the folks who commented. When you are balancing the weight of an elephant against the weight of a gnat, the weight of the gnat is irrelevant. Here, Mr. Rosche's interest in his facebook live-stream are a gnat. And the life of the would-be jumper is the elephant. In this situation, you don't have to care about the gnat.

Dear AtA. I am a big fan of your show, making legal sense of the day to day interactions we see tween police and citizens. This episode is particularly enlightening when it comes to official entitlement. I am also a fan of Steve Lehto who does his best to explain our arcane system to the average Joe. You ask at the end of each video about subjects your viewers would like explored and explained further. My question is regarding the arcane department of justice body known as the OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility). The job of this service is to handle and adjudicate the hundreds of accusations of impropriety that are lodged each law regarding misconduct by "officers of the Federal Court) including but not limited to Judges, Prosecutors, and all other "Federal Court Officers." As far as I can see this watchdog agency is unique compared with the dozens of other monitoring systems we have in place to deal with such disparate groups as doctors, morticians, police, real estate professionals, plumbers, architects . . . you name it. The list is endless. However unlike all the other watchdog groups the public can rely on to make informed decisions, this OPR is unique in that far from providing outcomes to accusations of all kinds, this "OPR" fails to even provide an anonymized numerical accounting of how many cases they consider each law. IE they can't even justify their own existence. I suggest that this organization is a corrupt sham, answerable to no one. Perhaps I have it all wrong. I would really value an explanation from a professional such as yourself who might be able to explain to me why these government officials appear to be beyond any kind of supervision. Kind regards, Anthony Wareham.
The older I get the more convinced I am that a significant amount of police officers resent free speech and other aspects of our Constitution, respect our Constitutional rights resentfully, and flout them whenever they think they can get away with it.
Im sure they resent the rules the same way everyone else hates the rules at their jobs... of course most people dont make violence and intimidation their business.
I feel for the first 2 cops, like bro we're trying to get someone to not take their own life, this isnt about your rights, be a good noodle, and help us out maybe not agitating him worse.... you have a right to be an asshole, you also have a choice whether to exercise it or act like an adult sometimes.
If your loved one is threatening suicide, do not call the cops. More often than not they will kill the person you are trying to help. They don't like being recorded when they are mocking someone to get them to jump so they don't have to work overtime.
It’s not illegal being an asshole. Just because the police don’t like it justified or not doesn’t give them the right to abuse their power and arrest someone who hasn’t committed a crime. He’s the chief of police he should know better his subordinates did and allows the man to move back and still record because they understood their situation, that’s why they still have their jobs.
I often find the police are not much different from the military in this regard. It is most often the short-timer that is getting "too old for this shit", has long since become sick of his job and is just counting the days, or it's the "Shit-bag" type of cop who is grossly incompetent and often a walking joke, who has a chip on their shoulder as a result. Sometime cops just have bad days for whatever reason, but every bad interaction I have ever had with cops usually falls under short-timer disease or general shit-bag syndrome. It's pretty obvious when it happens.
@@Zumaray you dont have to justify the crime you know because its a crime and the blue should have been fire on the spot because its obvisou itsnot the 1st time he abuse people and it show how all the blue p.o.s. acted before
Chief Chodes was already obviously near or at retirement age, and he was allowed to keep his pension. For all we know his retirement was maxed anyway, so he didn't lose much at all.
I think it was a decent result. He made the man recording leave on his terms. The man recording made him leave the job on his. Both walked away relatively unscathed expecting some cash. 🤣 I'd do 22 hours and hearing some old guy be a dick for however much money that dude just landed on. The jumper didn't jump, and maybe a precedent gets set where it's needed. Good resolution.
Well, to be fair, he was under considerable stress from the life and death situation at hand with the jumper. He didn’t handle it well, but it’s not all from being out of shape or ego and such.

“ *Those who are capable of tyranny are capable of perjury to sustain it* .”
“... *only those who have the will and the power to shoot down their fellow men, are the real rulers in this, as in all other (so-called) civilized countries; for by no others will civilized men be robbed, or enslaved* .”
― Lysander Spooner, No Treason: The Constitution of No Authority
*"So these villains, who call themselves governments, well understand that their power rests primarily upon stolen money* . *With money they can hire soldiers, and with soldiers extort money* . *And, when their authority is denied, the first use they always make of money, is to hire soldiers to kill or subdue all who refuse them more money* ."
*-The payment of taxes, being compulsory, of course furnishes no evidence that any one voluntarily supports the Constitution* .
*It is true that the theory of our Constitution is, that all taxes are paid voluntarily; that our government is a mutual insurance company, voluntarily entered into by the people with each other; that each man makes a free and purely voluntary contract with all others who are parties to the Constitution, to pay so much money for so much protection, the same as he does with any other insurance company; and that he is just as free not to be protected, and not to pay any tax, as he is to pay a tax, and be protected* .
*But this theory of our government is wholly different from the practical fact* . *The fact is that the government, like a highwayman, says to a man: Your money, or your life* . *And many, if not most, taxes are paid under the compulsion of that threat* ;.
*The government does not, indeed, waylay a man in a lonely place, spring upon him from the road side, and, holding a pistol to his head, proceed to rifle his pockets* . *But the robbery is none the less a robbery on that account; and it is far more dastardly and shameful* .
*The highwayman takes solely upon himself the responsibility, danger, and crime of his own act* . *He does not pretend that he has any rightful claim to your money, or that he intends to use it for your own benefit* . *He does not pretend to be anything but a robber* . *He has not acquired impudence enough to profess to be merely a “protector,” and that he takes men’s money against their will, merely to enable him to “protect” those infatuated travellers, who feel perfectly able to protect themselves, or do not appreciate his peculiar system of protection* . *He is too sensible a man to make such professions as these* . *Furthermore, having taken your money, he leaves you, as you wish him to do* . *He does not persist in following you on the road, against your will; assuming to be your rightful “sovereign,” on account of the “protection” he affords you* . *He does not keep “protecting” you, by commanding you to bow down and serve him; by requiring you to do this, and forbidding you to do that; by robbing you of more money as often as he finds it for his interest or pleasure to do so; and by branding you as a rebel, a traitor, and an enemy to your country, and shooting you down without mercy, if you dispute his authority, or resist his demands* . *He is too much of a gentleman to be guilty of such impostures, and insults, and villanies as these* . *In short, he does not, in addition to robbing you, attempt to make you either his dupe or his slave* .
*The proceedings of those robbers and murderers, who call themselves “the government,” are directly the opposite of these of the single highwayman* .
*In the first place, they do not, like him, make themselves individually known; or, consequently, take upon themselves personally the responsibility of their acts* . *On the contrary, they secretly (by secret ballot) designate some one of their number to commit the robbery in their behalf, while they keep themselves practically concealed* . *They say to the person thus designated:*
*Go to A- B-, and say to him that “the government” has need of money to meet the expenses of protecting him and his property* . *If he presumes to say that he has never contracted with us to protect him, and that he wants none of our protection, say to him that that is our business, and not his; that we choose to protect him, whether he desires us to do so or not; and that we demand pay, too, for protecting him* . *If he dares to inquire who the individuals are, who have thus taken upon themselves the title of “the government,” and who assume to protect him, and demand payment of him, without his having ever made any contract with them, say to him that that, too, is our business, and not his; that we do not choose to make ourselves individually known to him; that we have secretly (by secret ballot) appointed you our agent to give him notice of our demands, and, if he complies with them, to give him, in our name, a receipt that will protect him against any similar demand for the present year* . *If he refuses to comply, seize and sell enough of his property to pay not only our demands, but all your own expenses and trouble beside* .
*If he resists the seizure of his property, call upon the bystanders to help you (doubtless some of them will prove to be members of our band)* . *If, in defending his property, he should kill any of our band who are assisting you, capture him at all hazards; charge him (in one of our courts) with murder, convict him, and hang him* . *If he should call upon his neighbors, or any others who, like him, may be disposed to resist our demands, and they should come in large numbers to his assistance, cry out that they are all rebels and traitors; that “our country” is in danger; call upon the commander of our hired murderers; tell him to quell the rebellion and “save the country,” cost what it may* . *Tell him to kill all who resist, though they should be hundreds of thousands; and thus strike terror into all others similarly disposed* . *See that the work of murder is thoroughly done, that we may have no further trouble of this kind hereafter* . *When these traitors shall have thus been taught our strength and our determination, they will be good loyal citizens for many years, and pay their taxes without a why or a wherefore* .
*It is under such compulsion as this that taxes, so called, are paid* . *And how much proof the payment of taxes affords, that the people consent to support “the government,” it needs no further argument to show* .

So he effectively lost one months pay and the city gets to act like they care about people's rights.

Probably got at least half pay for the month from his pension.
Well lawfully you can't take away his pension as that is protected in the same way if your employer wanted to take your pension after firing you for losing them money on a deal.
@@aaronmontgomery2055 If your conduct at work did merit termination for violating company policy, you could definitely lose your benefits.

Its BS. These police in small communities doing this dumb shit give out substancial, taxpayer paydays that are often desperately needed for local services.

It also, as far fetched as it sounds, potentially creates situations/scams where kickbacks and paybacks can occur under the guise of civil rights violations.
Although the (ex) chief should pay the compensation from his pension fund.
"I don't care about your rights!" OK, well that sums it up.

It’s not clearly established that he has a constitutional right to record in the 6th Circuit. It’s also not necessarily clearly established that one has a right to record in this specific circumstance. There is no case that I know of with remotely similar facts that said a journalist/photographer had a right. A case where there is imminent danger which could be exasperated by the presence of a videographer. Typically the courts have sided with the authorities if interfering was involved. A guy in a tower threatening what he did...and a videographer inserting himself? I haven’t seen it.

Is this really what your grandpas died for? I dunno, man. Be this another encounter, like a water pipe leak or even comitted homicide scene, it would be somewhat ok. But this right here - i cant understand how you actually can support this sucker. You know, sometimes people sue for one penny plus expenses just to make a point. I would've respect that.

@@Madd_Whack What song are you singing since that didn't happen?
Depends on his age and years of service. He may have no insurance and may not have received full pension due to not having accrued the years of service. And if he is not old enough to collect SSI then his pension will not be enough to live on.
We need to pass a law, requiring lawsuits to be paid out of the police officer pension fund. THAT will change the way cops treat citizens.
Can you imagine how fast they would think twice before doing anything??
Exactly! We have to stop paying them out for their own fuck ups
Can you imagine how much more they’d circle the wagons and lie on behalf of other LEO’s since they now had a financial incentive to do so?
While I agree with you in principle, if a police officer is punished (by having money paid from HIS pension fund) when ANOTHER police officer does something bad, then first you are punishing people who did nothing wrong, and secondly you are encouraging police officers to protect each other.
Both of which are bad.
I do agree that it's important that police officers have to pay when they do something wrong, but this is not the way to do it.

@@patrykszczepanski773yes, exactly. Because he has a badge thry can put hands on you yet if someone without one does and you can defend yourself. Get the hell out of here
@@GraveMemoriesI mean, the cop has weapons and training. Odds are not in the average citizen’s favor if they try to physically fight an officer. That’s why the system gives options to fight it out in court at a later time and be compensated for damages done.

I'm from a small midwestern town, and this perfectly matches what I saw...some cops are smart, calm and ethical, and some are powertripping idiots.
Exactly. I grew up despising cops but it turned out that my small town was just corrupted with those idiots.
Cops in that town did nothing but bait for speeders, take 20+ minutes to get to you in a >500-people-town, and never took reports so repeats of an incident were as if it’s the first. A lot of small towns need to have better training or something.
Tell me about it. I got charged with disorderly conduct for being physically assaulted by my step brother and his mother and then threatened to arrest ME????
Sadly, that is the case in most precincts. It is not a job where even one “bad apple” is acceptable.
yep. Small town departments are an actual horror story.
Small Midwestern town here as well. Right by Lake of the Ozarks. We have a great community and I've never heard of a local officer abusing their power. Hell, I was walking home through school property with a bottle of Crown in my hands at about 1am. Cop stopped and asked me, "Wtf are you doing? This is a school you dumbass. Get in the car." He took me home and told me to go to bed. Never even asked for ID.
I can't believe that Chief just admitted to not caring about people's rights 🤦🏼♂️🤣
He probably doesn't care about what the juries or the judges rulings are. And most certainly doesn't care about how people on youtube judge him
He obviously has gotten away with this kind of behavior in the past. He knew he had nothing to fear. So sad.
Sounds like the chief owns his boss in that town..
10:42 "I could give a F about rights right now. I'm not politically correct." When the chief says that... game over for him.
"I don't care about your rights right now" that's all the judge needed to hear
Not true. That statement is in fact a validation of the chief's contention that he was dealing with a life or death matter and the right to broadcast a salacious "death jump" had no Constitutional significant. The analysis in this video is fundamentally flawed. Please see my full comment above.
@@robertlaw4073 I disagree completely. The fact he is caught on video saying he doesn't care about his rights while not interfering in that situation is a serious flaw in how interactions should be handled. Those words can be used against him because he is sworn to uphold and protect the public's Constitutional rights.

He lost his job but there was no point, they need to strip pension and benefits when disciplining officers who break the law.
Edit: If not this, then SOME kind of strict reform and harsh punishments need to be in place. It's fine to criticize my idea (yes, it's definitely very flawed), but at least I'm putting forth an idea. If you're gonna say it's a bad idea(not denying it isn't, but it's still better than nothing), at least follow up with your own.

@@doug753 Problem is, the shitty cops represent the same police force as the good ones. If the good cops don't like the bad name, they should be the ones leading the fight against bad cops.
@@RendezvousWithRama until a serious overhaul happens in the police unions it is almost impossible for good cops to stand up and testify against bad cops. Unfortunately any testimony against bad cops by good cops is tantamount to career suicide for the good cops. They are almost always blackballed, shifted into horrible shifts and the worst neighborhoods. They almost always are left out to twist in the wind when they call for backup when they need assistance.
Unfortunately, in order to keep their job they are essentially forced to keep quiet. If not directly ordered to remain silent, history shows the consequences of speaking out.
Until the unions are stripped of their power and police are stripped of their blanket, qualified immunity, I see very little changing when it comes to officers reporting other officers.
The one advantage we have now that wasn't around 15-20 years ago is that the public's eyes are more open than they have ever been to the outrageous actions of police. And now we have the power to record and report these infractions. We have seen recently that a large public outcry supported by video evidence can bring change. Unfortunately it is going to take longer than it should because we are doing it alone since the police aren't doing anything to assist in cleaning their own houses.
@@doctortow6244 Many fields have internal politics that prevent smooth function. Academia. Government. Police. Essentially it boils down to this: speak up, and your life is harder. Don't speak up, and your life is easier. And, in this case, it's cops who are there to uphold the law not speaking up when the law is violated - in order to make their lives easier. There is a term for that: crooked cops. And yes, you could say that this is just a product of their environment, but you could also say that about many criminals who are arrested and sent to prison.
I'm all for police reform, including better social integration, deescalation training, better education in policing law, and better accountability. These are things we will hopefully address in the near future. But that does not excuse current abuse of public trust, or complicity in its abuse.
at the end of it all, there's no justice served at all. hopefully the city will be renamed Roche Michigan after his suit.

Of course, if any of the officers there came out and said that to the press or anything like that, then they could probably kiss their career goodbye within law enforcement.

The 2 troopers were courteous and kind. Good job gents.
Completely wrong. The 2 troopers were intimidated by him and that set up the chief to have to come in and shut him down hard. What we don't really know even is whether Mr. Rosche complied by goint to the pole and staying at the pole. The officers seem basically not to care when they walk away... he is the one who says, "is that pole OK". Well, do you think the jumper was able to see him over the pole. Or, more importantly, did those officers consider that, or were they now thinking more about their own records and pensions than the life of the jumper. The Chief here did what had to be done. He could have done it without the drama, but frankly, he probably didn't really want to arrest Mr. Rosche. Probable because he made some assumptions about Mr. Rosche based on his race and appearance. He should have just matter-of-factly had him arrested. No discussion needed. No tantrum needed. But frankly what Mr. Rosche probably needed was a good ass-whoopping to learn that other people's lives aren't less important than him and his facebook live-stream. Sadly, no ass-whoopings for narcicist phone-streamers in this day and age.

In 2017, I was running an activity with a local Christian school that was "The Amazing Race" themed. I got special permission with date and timeframe from the courthouse and Sheriff's office to have a clue on a sign in the front lawn of the court house. Teams were given instructions on where to park, where to find the clue, and instructions on the clue for where to go next. The police chief decided it was necessary to stop every one of the 12 teams (of two HSers and one adult) two blocks past the courthouse and ask them "what the H they were running down the street for in the middle of the night" (um... 7pm on a Saturday night). He was threatening to take "all you MFers to jail." I wound up on the phone with one of my leaders and then spoke to the chief, explaining that we cleared it with the courthouse AND the SO and that this stop was on a public sidewalk. After finally releasing the first 3 or 4 teams with stern, nonsensical "warnings," he proceeded to stop every subsequent team over the next 40 minutes or so and grill them too. That was an unplanned "detour." Good job teams. You passed it.
The next fall, we did another event and this time asked the sheriff's office to inform the chief of what were doing in the park and to leave us alone. They were happy to oblige.
Seeing him in this video... I'm not the slightest bit surprised. What a jerk.
So it was the same guy? Holy cow. 😄
Holy cow, what a twist! Yeah, sounds like this dude was definitely one of the power trip types.
Old crochety grumps "impartially" enforcing the law.
I'm not sure why police and first responders in general get so angry when they are filmed.
A $95,000 settlement was reached in a case where a police chief was recorded ridiculing and arresting a citizen journalist.
Chief gets an F but he’s makin the bacon while kickin his feet up.
9/10 times if your dealing with a department where the chief still patrols, chances are your aren’t dealing with the smartest officer
You’re* you*
Why is it always the guy that questions the intelligence of another is himself incapable of exercising 4th grade level grammar skills?
@@austindorf83 Have you never had spell check change words you've typed out? Maybe you should be complaining to the manager of TH-cam about his grammar. It's like, we have to have standards, right? It clearly says all TH-cam comments must use correct grammar, spelling and usage rules from Karen's Big Book of Grammar for Managers right there in the EULA,
Hollow Rock TN....
@@76rjackson 😂
@@76rjackson Yes, I have. I correct them. I have standards and principles. I was more pointing out the hypocrisy of his comment, not necessarily the grammar itself. You shouldn’t be on the internet insulting the intelligence of a stranger when you can’t properly construct a sentence yourself. Get what I’m saying?
Wow. The amount of research you must do for each video is amazing.
As usual, justice isn't served when a law enforcement officer is involved.
I appreciate that you credit the other channels these are from. It feels like a more connected community and feels fair
This guy is way out of control. He even said he didn’t give a shit about his rights.
He doesn't have to because his rights are irrelevant when they create a life or death risk to another individual. The chief understood more about the Constitution than the host of this video (actually I think he understands, but glosses over it in order to keep up the theme of "bad cops"). Certainly he had a better grasp of "balancing" required by the Supreme Court than most of the folks who commented. When you are balancing the weight of an elephant against the weight of a gnat, the weight of the gnat is irrelevant. Here, Mr. Rosche's interest in his facebook live-stream are a gnat. And the life of the would-be jumper is the elephant. In this situation, you don't have to care about the gnat.
@@robertlaw4073 So you have zero complaints about the Chief of Polices' conduct? The Chief just couldn't control himself in this unarmed situation against a fat camera guy covered in gear?
"I don't give a shit" "I'm not PC" "I don't care" did he have to say any of that? Doesn't that needlessly escalate the situation?
Even if you're right, and camera guy needs to leave, this was the wrong way to do it.
@@EricLeafericson The guy with a camera cared more about his rights and beating a cop than the life of another human being. The camera operator was a piece of shit so I don't really blame the cop as the situation got more desperate. Fuck his rights in this situation.
@@markmathews2143 I don't give a shit who cares more. Or who's in the wrong more. They may both be in the wrong, I don't care.
My tax dollars should go to cops who are ABOVE this behavior. That's what they're paid to do, even if it means putting on a smile and being nice to dickheads.
Like the rest of the working world.
@@robertlaw4073 Yeah 100%. The police chief got cancelled, plain and simple. There are a lot of bad cops to try and fix. This was just some gotcha bullshit on someone who's just trying to save a life.
Dear AtA. I am a big fan of your show, making legal sense of the day to day interactions we see tween police and citizens. This episode is particularly enlightening when it comes to official entitlement. I am also a fan of Steve Lehto who does his best to explain our arcane system to the average Joe.
You ask at the end of each video about subjects your viewers would like explored and explained further. My question is regarding the arcane department of justice body known as the OPR (Office of Professional Responsibility). The job of this service is to handle and adjudicate the hundreds of accusations of impropriety that are lodged each law regarding misconduct by "officers of the Federal Court) including but not limited to Judges, Prosecutors, and all other "Federal Court Officers."
As far as I can see this watchdog agency is unique compared with the dozens of other monitoring systems we have in place to deal with such disparate groups as doctors, morticians, police, real estate professionals, plumbers, architects . . . you name it. The list is endless.
However unlike all the other watchdog groups the public can rely on to make informed decisions, this OPR is unique in that far from providing outcomes to accusations of all kinds, this "OPR" fails to even provide an anonymized numerical accounting of how many cases they consider each law. IE they can't even justify their own existence. I suggest that this organization is a corrupt sham, answerable to no one. Perhaps I have it all wrong. I would really value an explanation from a professional such as yourself who might be able to explain to me why these government officials appear to be beyond any kind of supervision.
Kind regards, Anthony Wareham.
The older I get the more convinced I am that a significant amount of police officers resent free speech and other aspects of our Constitution, respect our Constitutional rights resentfully, and flout them whenever they think they can get away with it.
Im sure they resent the rules the same way everyone else hates the rules at their jobs... of course most people dont make violence and intimidation their business.
Because it limits their power, exactly what it’s designed to do.
That's probably just because you are getting more and more bitter
@@timmeeyh6523 no its because I m not an Amerinazi
I feel for the first 2 cops, like bro we're trying to get someone to not take their own life, this isnt about your rights, be a good noodle, and help us out maybe not agitating him worse.... you have a right to be an asshole, you also have a choice whether to exercise it or act like an adult sometimes.
Thank you! Why be an asshole when someone's life is in danger..
But, ooh.. My rights!
WELL.SAID!
If your loved one is threatening suicide, do not call the cops. More often than not they will kill the person you are trying to help. They don't like being recorded when they are mocking someone to get them to jump so they don't have to work overtime.
It’s not illegal being an asshole. Just because the police don’t like it justified or not doesn’t give them the right to abuse their power and arrest someone who hasn’t committed a crime. He’s the chief of police he should know better his subordinates did and allows the man to move back and still record because they understood their situation, that’s why they still have their jobs.
@@xandror So the cops will KILL the person trying to commit suicide? Huh??
He needs to take him to court and get their taxes back out of that POS. Teach him a lesson he won't forget.
Constitutionally-protected activity or not, live streaming a suicidal man contemplating jumping to his death is disgusting.
There's always that ONE officer that goes totally off the rails for no reason.
I often find the police are not much different from the military in this regard. It is most often the short-timer that is getting "too old for this shit", has long since become sick of his job and is just counting the days, or it's the "Shit-bag" type of cop who is grossly incompetent and often a walking joke, who has a chip on their shoulder as a result. Sometime cops just have bad days for whatever reason, but every bad interaction I have ever had with cops usually falls under short-timer disease or general shit-bag syndrome. It's pretty obvious when it happens.
Thankfully, it's only ONE... Ha!
One they are all the scu... of the earth just power tripping scu....
It’s stress. Most people wouldn’t understand.
@@Zumaray you dont have to justify the crime you know because its a crime and the blue should have been fire on the spot because its obvisou itsnot the 1st time he abuse people and it show how all the blue p.o.s. acted before
the chief did not learn anything, He is just getting paid without working. He happy
And alot less likely to be shot in the face now... sad😥
I wonder if he also helped save the dude’s life by keeping the chief out of the scene.
He was accustomed to getting everything his way.
Yeah, his boys couldn't get the job done and he thought he would show them how it's done and couldn't lose face in the end.
Lost his job as soon as he said "I dont care about your rights" ok guy 😂
he was about to retire in like a month thats why he didnt care
he was rewarded by getting early retirement
Chief Chodes was already obviously near or at retirement age, and he was allowed to keep his pension. For all we know his retirement was maxed anyway, so he didn't lose much at all.
he lost nothing thats the problem he probably went home to his wife and said good news I am retiring a month early.
Chief is walking around now filming everything
Except for his dignity
I think it was a decent result. He made the man recording leave on his terms. The man recording made him leave the job on his. Both walked away relatively unscathed expecting some cash. 🤣 I'd do 22 hours and hearing some old guy be a dick for however much money that dude just landed on. The jumper didn't jump, and maybe a precedent gets set where it's needed. Good resolution.
@@MaddenDoctor You need to own something before you can lose it. ;)
That’s the 8th District Court of Appeals in Cleveland, not a city office in Michigan.
The way the Chief is breathing heavily, voice is shaking. He knows he's wrong but continued.
Actually its probably because he had to walk his fatass, out of shape body 499 feet out to the guy to harrass and arrest him
the chief and journalist were loudly agreeing that the journalist could stay where he was.
I thought that he was also trying to restrain his latent anger problems ...
His ego had been challenged, he couldn't turn back.
Well, to be fair, he was under considerable stress from the life and death situation at hand with the jumper. He didn’t handle it well, but it’s not all from being out of shape or ego and such.
Just remember when this type of incident happens it is not the first time, it is just the first time getting caught doing it to people.
One cop tells you to move, so you do. Another cop comes and arrests him where he moved.
......what....?
At the very least, the lawsuit he was awarded should come directly from Churros's pension and not from the Tax Payers
"I'm not politically correct!" elicited an actual out loud laugh from me.
*violates a citizen's constitutional rights and gets fired* take that libt*rds!
He ended up very politically incorrect in the eyes of those judges lmao.
Ah, can you imagine an instant "and you aren't legally correct, either" clapback XD
Giving us fine politically incorrect gentleman a bad name. Tsk tsk tsk
ok, the auditor automatically gains some respect at 5:07 for compromising in a day when auditor's will not compromise in even the most logical way.
