Old School Blues Player How many unarmed people were killed by police in 2018? I don't know the figure, but I'll bet my next month's pay it was a HELL of a lot more than 150. Police officers have a shitty, terrible job, I totally agree. They're also compensated piss-poorly for it. Make 'police officer' a decent, respectable career that people can aspire to, and you'll start being able to select the right applicants instead of having no choice but to hire the sadists, weirdos, and roid-raging psychos that either couldn't get into the military (another profession GRIEVOUSLY underpaid, and another sad failure to those who work the hardest in our nation) were made fun of or abused their entire lives, or are just plain evil, because precious few sane, decent human beings are willing to do such a scary, terrible, dangerous job for the pathetic wages offered to them. No one hates cops more than I do, but it has nothing to do with the principle of police. It's 100% the type of people who almost always perform that particular job, and we can change it with votes and the stroke of a pen, overnight. I should mention, all you fucking sidewalk lawyers 'exercising your rights' (regardless of whether you do indeed know said rights), filming and antagonizing a very powerful class of people we already know to be largely unstable and armed and posting your 'courageous exposes of the tyranny of the 'man'' are far from faultless in this plague yourselves. Police that shouldn't really be police officers view you as a direct threat, and it's making it worse and might very well get you killed.
It's not illegal to film cops. They're public servants on taxpayer's dime. If they say it's illegal, they're wrong. If you're on public property or on your own private property, it's legal.
Unfortunately they don’t, it’s not like the military where you sign a contract to put your life on the line and take an oath. They just go through training and be done with it. Police departments should really encourage more honor and discipline within their units this was definitely not the way

In Texas, they're trained to assume everyone is a member of the "Republic of Texas", a loose Confederation of Nut-jobs who think that the State of Texas joining the Union was illegal, and they still think they live in the Wild Wild West. They accuse everyone, especially those trying to uphold their Own Constitutional Rights in Court, like Pro Se litigants who represent themselves, or those trying to obtain Government records thru Statutory procedures (like when they make "Open Records" request), or when trying to serve a public official in any Government facility, like at a Court.

@Zeek Banistor I think you're a troll who knows nothing about US law. You're talking to a former LEO, so I know what I'm talking about. You clearly do not. Reasonable suspicion means that the officer suspects wrongdoing and is related to SEARCH. Not drawing weapons. You are way off base, bud.

So the cop admits he confronted the guy just because he pulled his camera out… but then his response is to pull a gun out? No simple “hey why are you filming me”?
His response to the guy refusing to pull his hand out of his pocket is why he drew the gun, which is 100% reasonable excuse for police to draw. Guy coulda just pulled his hand out and this would never have happened and almost certainly would have resulted in the scenario you think should have happened.
@@TheTwister22 First, living with cops doesn't grant you supreme knowledge. American? Second. Where in the video had the cop decided he was committing an offense?

Why do cops keep asking if, “you’re some kind of a Constitutionalist?” Aren’t cops here to uphold the Constitution? Asking if the citizen believes in the rights afforded him under the Constitution infers that the cop is a fascist.
I think you misinterpret that question. It is asked because being "Some kind of constitutionalist" explains some of the abnormal behavior these "Policing the police" types display. If your the type of person that is serious about your rights and watching the police, then that explains behavior that would, under normal circumstances be strange or suspect. You often see cops saying that to people who are exercising their 2A rights. Walking up and down the sidewalk with a battle rifle slung over your shoulder is potentially strange and erratic behavior, doing so while speaking about 2A rights is perhaps unusual behavior, but entirely justified, and non threatening. Randomly filming the police raises questions (Also in this video, the cop tells the guy to take his hand out of his pocket) This is a super common thing, they don't know what you have, you can see the gun on his hip, he doesn't know why your hand is in your pocket, and police die because they approached the wrong guy. This guy immediately says "No" I would also like to clarify that I am not defending the cop in this situation, at all. His entire reason for stopping was wrong, this police interaction should never have happened. Taking pictures of the police isn't a crime (And although it is somewhat strange behavior it is not suspicious behavior) but some of these things you see cops say a lot. It is because they are trained to say it, or have learned to say it. I have had a lot of experience with the police, on both sides of the law, I am beginning to know them well. "Are you some kind of constitutionalist" actually (Usually) means "Can I relax around you, is this a display of your rights, or just strange behavior" Keep in mind cops are often fought or killed by people who were shouting "I haven't done anything, you don't have the right!" even when they were caught red handed and moments later are shooting at the police. Just sayin. -Edit to be clear (After reading over what I wrote) I am not saying that is how this guy was using this. This cop was behaving disgracefully, I am more commenting on why these phrazes crop up quite a lot. Not that they were in any way justified in this situation. The cop was treating this guy like he was a suspect in a serious crime, all because he filmed the police. Portions of this video look completely justified, and normal, until you remind yourself that this guy isn't suspected of armed robbery.
@@redrath2 "His entire reason for stopping was wrong, this police interaction should never have happened." exactly he should have just filmed him back and drive on, no need to stop since the man did nothing wrong, and instead the officer escalate the situation especially by drawing his weapon even when the guy don't want to pull his hand out of his pocket, last time i check putting your hand inside your pocket is not unlawful, and just because is super common thing doesn't mean is lawful, and the fact the officer still not holster his weapon after the guy put his hands out of his pocket is just so wrong
No, no. That's the military that serves the historically important and federally recognized piece of paper. Cops aren't actually bound to obey the Constitution anywhere in the SOP.
The cop really said “you need to relax” even though he’s the one who literally pulled a gun on the dude for filming. The cop needs to take his own advice and relax

@@DanielRodriguez-bv5wx Depending how he drew his hand out of his pocket. This could be hard to prove from the officers stand-point if he didn't have a bodycam. Assuming the officer did have a bodycam, it would depend on the manner that he drew his hand out of his pocket. If he drew his hand out slowly so that the officer could see if he had any sort of weapon or object and the officer did discharge his service pistol this would be very concerning. I have no idea what was going through that officer's head so I don't want to make any decisive judgements on what I think happened or didnt happen. Edit: Another comment pointed out how relaxed the officer was to take out his cell phone and photograph the suspect. If the officer had shot him or discharged his weapon, knowing this, the officer would probably be found guilty.
Never Fail - Absolutely unacceptable. Cops that act like this need to be reprimanded. They swear an oath to uphold the Constitution, not violate it’s most important tenants, violating the rights and liberty of citizens that have not committed a crime.

that is beyond hilarious!!!
It's not illegal to film cops. They're public servants on taxpayer's dime. If they say it's illegal, they're wrong. If you're on public property or on your own private property, it's legal.

'Are you some kind of Constitutionalist?"
Officer, *didn't you swear an oath to uphold & defend the Constitution???*
“Idk officer, are you some kind of petty tyrant?” Man that old doesn’t need to be on any field job. Office only at best.
Unfortunately they don’t, it’s not like the military where you sign a contract to put your life on the line and take an oath. They just go through training and be done with it. Police departments should really encourage more honor and discipline within their units this was definitely not the way
This cop has some serious issues and needs to be fired asap
Fired? You mean prosecuted and put in prison right?
He should never have even made contact with the guy filming. No reasonable suspicion of any crime whatsoever. Cops like this give the good cops and heroes a bad name. He clearly does not have the temperament to be a peace officer.

The first thing he does is pull out his gun, that escalated quickly.
He had to when someone has their hands in their pockets. It just shows you never been on that kind of situation. Cop is right
Hahahahaha Jacy... How is the cop right... Cop was literally driving around and gets out of his car because the guy is recording him... I'm all for cops but there was never even a reason for him to get out of his truck. Let alone pull his weapon out.
Above world don’t even try to reason with these idiots. You can argue until you get red in the face, no fixin stupid
Jacy Borreaux so can I walk up to you and tell you to get your hands out of your pockets and then proceed to pull my gun out? You have to understand the guy didn’t do anything illegal so the cop has no right to tell him to do anything!
Jacy Borreaux he did not have to get out of his police car. He intended to intimidate this guy no matter what. A cop needs a legal reason to confront a civilian and needs to site that reason the moment he contacts you.
He should be fired there's no reason for him to pull his weapon
smH

yep out now
Wrong police safety protocol. He could be shot or stabbed by a hidden weapon. He was doing what every cop should have done when someone doesnt take their hand out of their pockets. Dumbass didnt want to take his hand out of his pocket he faced the consequence
There is no reason for him to step out of the vehicle in the first place.

"Are you some type of constitutionalist?"
Um, aren't cops suppose to defend the Constitution?
EXACTLY!
In Texas, they're trained to assume everyone is a member of the "Republic of Texas", a loose Confederation of Nut-jobs who think that the State of Texas joining the Union was illegal, and they still think they live in the Wild Wild West.
They accuse everyone, especially those trying to uphold their Own Constitutional Rights in Court, like Pro Se litigants who represent themselves, or those trying to obtain Government records thru Statutory procedures (like when they make "Open Records" request), or when trying to serve a public official in any Government facility, like at a Court.
It's a standard procedure taught at all LEO academies and training facilities, especially in Texas. Every Court and Courthouse in Texas treats everyone as their adversaries, and as a threat, regardless of your legal rights and Constitutional standings 😠
He should have said YES I am. Are you a fucking COMMUNIST!!!!!!!!!
He asked are you some kind of WIERD constitutionalist.
"Or a weird crazy guy"
Who would say, "Yes," to that? He's just trying to be insulting.
You can tell that he didn't pull his weapon out of fear or because he felt threatened. He drew because he wanted to impose his power over the guy.
@@halalfr You good bro?

@Zeek Banistor bud I feel like you don't understand. Every department had use of force requirements. Drawing your weapon is a use of force. That said that can only be done in certain situations, and this ain't it.
@Zeek Banistor I think you're a troll who knows nothing about US law. You're talking to a former LEO, so I know what I'm talking about. You clearly do not. Reasonable suspicion means that the officer suspects wrongdoing and is related to SEARCH. Not drawing weapons. You are way off base, bud.

Sadly, that is exactly how that happened.
Fortunately, he sued in court and won a settlement after the judge denied the officer Qualified Immunity.

Constitutionalist....not quiet.
So the cop admits he confronted the guy just because he pulled his camera out… but then his response is to pull a gun out? No simple “hey why are you filming me”?
His response to the guy refusing to pull his hand out of his pocket is why he drew the gun, which is 100% reasonable excuse for police to draw.
Guy coulda just pulled his hand out and this would never have happened and almost certainly would have resulted in the scenario you think should have happened.

Aren’t cops here to uphold the Constitution? Asking if the citizen believes in the rights afforded him under the Constitution infers that the cop is a fascist.
I'm in agreement with you friend
I think you misinterpret that question. It is asked because being "Some kind of constitutionalist" explains some of the abnormal behavior these "Policing the police" types display. If your the type of person that is serious about your rights and watching the police, then that explains behavior that would, under normal circumstances be strange or suspect. You often see cops saying that to people who are exercising their 2A rights. Walking up and down the sidewalk with a battle rifle slung over your shoulder is potentially strange and erratic behavior, doing so while speaking about 2A rights is perhaps unusual behavior, but entirely justified, and non threatening.
Randomly filming the police raises questions (Also in this video, the cop tells the guy to take his hand out of his pocket) This is a super common thing, they don't know what you have, you can see the gun on his hip, he doesn't know why your hand is in your pocket, and police die because they approached the wrong guy. This guy immediately says "No"
I would also like to clarify that I am not defending the cop in this situation, at all. His entire reason for stopping was wrong, this police interaction should never have happened. Taking pictures of the police isn't a crime (And although it is somewhat strange behavior it is not suspicious behavior) but some of these things you see cops say a lot. It is because they are trained to say it, or have learned to say it.
I have had a lot of experience with the police, on both sides of the law, I am beginning to know them well. "Are you some kind of constitutionalist" actually (Usually) means "Can I relax around you, is this a display of your rights, or just strange behavior"
Keep in mind cops are often fought or killed by people who were shouting "I haven't done anything, you don't have the right!" even when they were caught red handed and moments later are shooting at the police. Just sayin.
-Edit to be clear (After reading over what I wrote)
I am not saying that is how this guy was using this. This cop was behaving disgracefully, I am more commenting on why these phrazes crop up quite a lot. Not that they were in any way justified in this situation. The cop was treating this guy like he was a suspect in a serious crime, all because he filmed the police. Portions of this video look completely justified, and normal, until you remind yourself that this guy isn't suspected of armed robbery.
@@redrath2 "His entire reason for stopping was wrong, this police interaction should never have happened." exactly he should have just filmed him back and drive on, no need to stop since the man did nothing wrong, and instead the officer escalate the situation especially by drawing his weapon even when the guy don't want to pull his hand out of his pocket, last time i check putting your hand inside your pocket is not unlawful, and just because is super common thing doesn't mean is lawful, and the fact the officer still not holster his weapon after the guy put his hands out of his pocket is just so wrong
Because Everybody Talk like they know Something and instead they know Nothing That's why

Where I'm from a cop does that and he has to live in the police station, cause the minute he's of duty it's on
Let me get this straight - this cop shows up to someone’s house, pulls a gun & then goes on vacation no questions asked.
"You need to relax"... says the guy who just pulled out his gun.
I'm laughing but man, that's scary 😬😬
Roy Gonzalez that would have been a good case of shooting a cop in self defense
@Anthony Douglass You're probably an idiot. Just kidding, you're definitely an idiot.
haha yeah, was thinking the same. Thats some fucking Xanex for the nerves!
Yes the cop pulled a gun but he was very relaxed and asked the man nicely.
The man however wasnt calm at all, if he just cooperate its all fine.
And yes i know the gun wasn't necessary but you could clearly see he was a decent cop by the way he looked.
He has no respect for his weapon. He doesn't deserve a badge or a gun.
Police are bully
Cop: Pulls a gun out
Also cop: you need to calm down

@@angadgrewal7386 not all
It would be "*nor a gun".
The cop actually asked, "Are you some kind of Constitutioalist?" Like that would be a bad thing. Keep in mind He is the one who swore to uphold and protect the Constitution.
cops are just corporate drones
Where do people get that idea? Cops don’t swear shit.
All law enforcement, military and politicians in the US take an oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States. They literally have to hold up there right hand while standing in the presence of the US flag when doing so. If you ever served in any of these capacities you would know.
Not the first time he has done this, just the first time caught.
It's commiefornia, a totally different country.
As a cop, you are allowed to harass and draw your weapon on civilians on their own property and NOTHING will happen! How is this okay!?
He looks like he was sizing up whether or not he could get away with murdering you dude.
Exactly… as soon as the guy took his hand out of his pocket he was going to shoot claiming self defense
@@DanielRodriguez-bv5wx Depending how he drew his hand out of his pocket. This could be hard to prove from the officers stand-point if he didn't have a bodycam. Assuming the officer did have a bodycam, it would depend on the manner that he drew his hand out of his pocket. If he drew his hand out slowly so that the officer could see if he had any sort of weapon or object and the officer did discharge his service pistol this would be very concerning. I have no idea what was going through that officer's head so I don't want to make any decisive judgements on what I think happened or didnt happen.
Edit:
Another comment pointed out how relaxed the officer was to take out his cell phone and photograph the suspect. If the officer had shot him or discharged his weapon, knowing this, the officer would probably be found guilty.

*Continues walking forward with a gun out*
Never Fail - Absolutely unacceptable. Cops that act like this need to be reprimanded. They swear an oath to uphold the Constitution, not violate it’s most important tenants, violating the rights and liberty of citizens that have not committed a crime.
Something similar happened in July 2011 in Norway where a terrorist dressed as a police officer told kids to relax as he quickly closed in and then shot them...
He said that as if he wanted to execute that man. It's so goddamn terrifying to be told like that
Yung Berno We’re not in Norway goober
Canopy Breezes Outdoors I’m from Norway, goober. It’s relevant.
He took his gun out when he didn’t need to. That alone is a violation.

There should be consequences when an officer pulls a gun for no apparent reason.
Shoot them for being an unknown threat

Yes, but you have to admit the guy with the camera was just trying to evoke that reaction from the cop.

Oh boo hoo, what did the big bad establishment do to you? Give you a parking ticket? Told you not to smoke indoors? Took away something you were illegally possessing?

If you honestly believe that the people responsible for preventing those issues are "pigs" that deserve death, then I have no words to describe how much of a real "pig" you yourself are.
1:10 "Constitutionalist"? You mean the thing you swore on and which is the foundation to your job? If one should be a 'constitutionalist' it'd be you.
