Do they sell my browsing information or any of my info?
You gotta make a very wise decision on who you decide to use for VPN. The reason is because some 'free' and even some paid VPNs are selling all your data to the highest bidder. This is bad because a VPN gets every single packet of your internet use in order to do what it does, redirect all of it to a virtual private server and wash your IP address. Be safe guys
I think this might be a joke call the cops three men with guns get down here quick, all you're interested in parking eh, pretty sure you got a warrant give me your ID, f these commies there needs to be real consequences for these people legally if it's ever going to change
@@Speedster189
As to the video, I could understand how the clerk thought this guy may need mental health assistance.
Giant parking lots but he can't find a place to park?
Bizarre. Most mass shooters have mental health issues by default.
Creating conflict for conflicts sake is pathetic.
Blah Blah Blah,... video upon video upon video,... continues to show public that law enforcement totally lacks any REASONABLE sense of the very laws, they're suppose to enforce. No lawyers, No Judges seem to want to stop ANY of these constant violations of Rights. WTF?!
When will you go beyond "fundamental mis-understanding of the law"? Don't you see, they simply don't like being questioned or assertion of citizen's rights. Time and again that is the underlying cause - Big egos. As an auditor, if you can't identify the problem, what use is your recommendations or opinion?
The city employee was not alarmed. She was annoyed. She used an emergency system to call for police help simply because she was annoyed with a customer. She should be charged for an intentional false emergency call.
".... and Mrs. Grungus gets a C- for being a reaaaaaal B-word!"
Yeah, if she truly believed it to be a prank situation, tell him they are done talking and for him to leave. Call the cops only after he fails to leave.
she had good cause to
@@jackpeterman6977 What was the cause then?? Her being pissy and bitchy to the gentleman?? I mean everyone has a right to be bitchy and angry but calling a police just you are bitchy and angry leaves a bad tastes in everyone's mouth...
@@jackpeterman6977 bootlicker alert
The woman at the front desk seemed like she never once had human interaction.. she basically sits her ass there and collects a check.
ong 💀 she called the cops so quick like???
Npc for sure
It still baffles me how these people with no knowledge of how rules and laws work , actually get a job in the very departments that are meant for their upkeep.
The guy had really poor social skills as well
Yeah honestly all the guy needed to do was ask if he would be fined for parking over 2 hours. But that lady was lame af. Definitely still on his side. some kind of poor social skills don't warrant getting arrested.
This all started with a city hall employee that was lazy and didn’t want to be “bothered” to help a person.
I don't think that's entirely true here. This video is edited and doesn't show her answering his questions to where he could park. It also edits out where he kept talking over her rudely. She isn't the problem here. The officer and her co-worker are the problems.
@@bear3663 Ah yes, when someone is a bit unruly in their diction, we should call the cops on them. well done sir, well done
@@bear3663fascists like you are always exposing themselves. Good for you. Stay away from the public.
Auditer: "am I detained"
Cop: "no, but I order you to sit down, you can't leave, and you're under arrest for asking too many questions"
"am i being detained?"
"no"
"okay, bye"
Didn’t work here, cop had an inflated ego and a tool belt equipped designed to hurt people. Doubt that would’ve went well if he tried to exit with the guy blocking the entry way..
The city hall employee, a public servant, who called the police should be fined for making a false report to the police.
I doubt that’ll happen . She’s sitting there doing nothing all day
I'd sue her and the police.
Well, I wouldn't say she's doing nothing all day. I mean, she scratches her crotch and plays solitaire on the computer.
@@peternicholas3858 sounds like a job I need
She needs to be educated along with the officers, then when they repeat the action they should be fired. This is why people dont trust, respect or like Leo's.
The dude: "I want to be a law abiding citizen. Can you help?"
The cops: "Obeying the law is illegal, you're under arrest."
The irony lol
He went to city hall to say "I'd like to spend more than 2 hours in your town, but I can't find any parking". Their response was to give him a room for the night.
@@ToomanyFrancis you forgot to mention clean clothes and two meals.
This is so stupid Im out of words...
😂🤣😂
"Do you wanna show me YOUR driver's license?"
Dude's a legend for that one! 🤣
It's one of his schticks [= love it
This channel name is literally "exchange ID's with Travis Hines"
in one video he gave a cop the letter I and D cut out of paper when asked for id
“Where do I park?”
“Are you pranking me?”
Ah yes. The classic prank. Asking where to park.
Right next to asking if parking is valid due to lack of visible signs prohibiting it, and then getting the reply, if you wanna get towed.
Completely neutral and absolutely non- escalating language there👍
it never gets old.
😂
@@Roamr1720right lol
I DISAGREE!
*runs away*
Imagine getting arrested for talking about your concerns about the town's parking rules at town hall. This is so sad
But she sure loved it.
to protect and arrest
Bit wierd how he worded it tho , not to arrest but still strange
Police: No you wont be charged, you can park here for more then 2 hours
Person: Ahh, okay thanks, then we are good and its settled.
Police: WhAt?! NOT ON MY WATCH
He was rambling. He never once stated a concern.
The fact she even buzzed the cops is what's wrong here. A simple, "I'm sorry. I don't know too much about that, but I can find out for you. Just give me a minute." Like why did you immediately give up and escalate the situation?
Agreed. She should have called a supervisor.
He had a really weird vibe, and it seemed like he had ulterior motives. How is she supposed to know what those motives are? Notthing wrong with what she did, the cops escalated the situation.
@@manman478 Weird vibe how? Awkward maybe, but there wa nothing suspicious about him
@@manman478 we should call the cops on everyone who sounds socially awkward or just tired, let's start calling cops on truckers when they're in public since they're typically tired from long drives
@@manman478 he was asking a simple question, you’re the type just like the lady
Imagine getting "alarmed" by a civilian asking about parking. People in the UK would be laughing at her.
Yeah, totally Everyone in the UK is perfect obviously.
@@shredhead21 well good thing that’s not what they said
America is a lie. It brags about freedom but fails to mention that freedom is only for the favored.
People in the US are laughing already LOL
Yeah. Laughing while getting arrested for posting memes on social media.
From this channel (and lived experience) I’ve learned that…
it’s a crime to:
be disabled, mentally distressed, anxious, traumatised, Black, elderly, assertive (especially if you’re female), emotional, have a speech impediment or cognitive impairment, be a victim of s*xual abuse, be aware of ones rights or be unafraid to express ones views.
"All in the land of the free. "
@@Tu_Carnalxiii Indeed 🙄
Oh and wear a body camera!
Womp womp
You're forgetting "have a question about parking".
What a toxic department. From the front desk lady calling him “irate” to the unlawful actions of the officers…this town NEEDS help.
I know, irate?!?! I was like are you kidding me!!!!!! He wasn’t irate, she must not know what irate IS!!!!!
@@Gunship888 Agreed 100%, front desk lady should’ve just answered his questions and asked him to move on, same for the police…… I mean seriously! The guy had very simple questions, answer them and send them on his way,done!
Now if they answered his questions, and he wanted to continue his weird 2hour parking spot witchhunt, and not leave, then you have a case of him being a nuisance, That’s different.
Why did he go in there with a camera on his shirt? He wanted a problem and that’s what he got. These videos annoy me sometimes
@@Maggie_b He went in with a camera on the shirt no different than police using their own body cams, he wears a camera so when abuse of power like this occurs if needed in court he has is own angle of all the events that unfolded, You're a small minded simpleton, living in a bubble called America. Outside in other countries EVERYONE who drives actively has a dash cam because hit and runs and this kind of corruption is everywhere. He can use all of this footage to sue the police department involved and have something called a PAYDAY. Especially since they are CIVIL SERVANTS AND WORK FOR YOU. You are allowed to Record them. Period. You're their boss. Not the other way around. You're brain washed by the media into believing they have power over you. When you get into an altercation and remind them of their position their demeanor tends to change. Been there and done that, never had any problems when they were hit with a reality check. Especially when they knew they were in the wrong and i wasn't afraid to threaten suing them. Stand firm and learn your Constitutional Rights It'll save you more than you know.
@@Maggie_b How did he want a problem? Camera doesn't matter if he is just asking a simple question about parking and having a conversation.
Officer Harris body language says it all. He came in there fully looking to escalate the situation, and make an arrest.
Any pig who stands like he does is probably corrupt. Never met a cop who stands like that and isnt corrupt.
he simply wanted to run for warrants........dumb donkey
Pure authoritarianism from that officer, his stance and positioning said it all before he even opened his mouth
Pathetic, probably gets no respect anywhere else
They sometimes get push to arrest just to mske statistic numbers
"You're under arrest for being an inconvenience!!!"
Where can I park? “You’re under arrest!”
i think the point of the matter he was concerned about was if he would get a parking ticket for being parked longer than the posted 2 hour limit.
What kind of mad man would try to park in this day and age? This situation has some "Rambo: First Blood" energy.
Blocking his exit is illegal. These officers are that concerned all because a citizen has a discussion because of a parking concern. This is absolutely absurd.
Has to be the whole establishment, the lady he talked to in the beginning obviously made his request sounds hearty/heafty. I saw a girl in the back smiling away as this citizen is being cornered by dirty cops left and right. The whole team seams sheisty, never once did the officers show a shimmer emotion or of humanity or a smile nothing to show that this was a simple light situation
Just because one person was smiling doesn’t mean that he wasn’t disturbing the peace or needed a welfare check (I’ll leave that argument up to a prosecutor and not some CZcamsr).
Additionally, if Mr. Hines has nothing better to do than get arrested and spend the night in jail maybe he should try getting a job. Perhaps then he wouldn’t be living in his car! I hope the city hall issued him a trespass which a city business is permitted to do . There’s another video on ADA in which another one of these nut jobs is issued a 1 year criminal trespass for a very similar situation.
@@slynn5138 He could have been a whole lot clearer at the outset, but I don’t understand how politely asking a question can lead to a criminal trespass. Especially as he did try to leave when he realized that he overstayed his welcome but was blocked from doing so.
@@johnbarone7602because the Police are fully aware of this guy and what his intentions are. He runs around town with his video camera asking ridiculous questions trying to get people to call the police on him so he can film his interactions with the Police and post them on his CZcams channel. Not illegal but a complete waste of taxpayer resources.
Nowadays, guys that act in such a manner are nothing new to the Police. This department has more than likely met with the District Attorneys and discussed how to best achieved their goals (to leave) without violating his civil liberties. I m
It’s very unfortunate that guys like this take FULL ADVANTAGE of our great Constitution to make CZcams videos.
@@slynn5138 You're such a trololo
As someone who is autistic and has problems with being socially normal, I do fear being in a situation similar to this. Being stopped by an Officer, acting awkward or nervous, and the cop taking that as suspicious behavior is one of my fears.
Same here. In my view mass media is to blame for all of this. We think any awkward or odd man is some kind of rapist, terrorist, criminal or whatever because of all the doom and gloom on the news but that kind of stuff isn’t as common as it seems.
I wonder that constantly. Like I drove up to Hoover Dam and at the security check, they asked if I had any weapons in the vehicle and I said "I don't think so" and he was immediately alerted and insisted I give a straight "no" unless I wanted to be searched.
@@willcarlton3906 "it's the quiet ones you've gotta look out for"
This guy is not autistic nor does he have asburgers… He just came in with an attitude… As soon as the cops came in, he became much nicer
So I have a story that happened to me, and this is a CRAZY story: So I have autism as well. Back when I was 15 (I am over 25 years old now), I was out jogging in my neighborhood to get some exercise when all of a sudden, a police officer drove by, got out of his car, and confronted me. He accused me of stealing items from a parked car, and didn’t want to show me proof that I did it. I told him many times that I didn’t steal anything, but he kept insisting that I did. I felt afraid of him because he towered over me. Plus, I have social issues and a stuttering problem. Anyways, he got my information and then it got really weird… He wanted to know where I lived and “needed” proof that I lived there. I wish I knew my rights at the time, but I didn’t. I wish I had the education back then to know what my rights were. So I felt forced to let him in. My dog tried to attack the officer, and I saw the cop reach for his gun. Me being the selfless idiot I am covered my dog to protect her from any harm. The officer didn’t shoot. No one else was home when I came back home, but the TV was on and there was dinner made on the stove. The officer asked me “Who’s cooking?!” I told him “No one.” I wanted to record him, but he threatened violence against me. I was so afraid. After he left my house, I called my mom immediately to take me to the nearest police station to tell them what happened. I was crying. The officer showed up there. After the officer saw me crying, he then tried to accuse me of being high on drugs just because my eyes were red from crying. I told him “I was crying, you idiot.” After that whole day, the officer was fired.
I am glad karma got to him, but it didn’t change the fact that I feared him so much. I told myself to get educated on the law and my rights after that and to never fear any bad cops ever again.
Missouri law says a person commits the crime of disturbing the peace when you get on the cops nerves by knowing your rights
i mean, getting a call that wont resolve quickly for a report is disturbing the peace with paper work and having to stand when they could be relaxing in a car.
not giving them id means they cant pretend to be doing work, so they have to make up work instead which means REAL paper work instead of just looking for problems where there are none.
As someone who works in retail and if I called the police on all the customers who made me uncomfortable, put their hands in my face, screamed at, and even threatened me we would have to have a police detail posted permanently at the store.
This man didn’t even do anything close to that.
You can have them trespassed
@@slumz12 only if management believes the offense is “serious” enough
Im from Germany and the problem I see with police in the US, is that they escalate situations when they should be the CALM ones in the engagement. You shouldn’t get emotional or personally offended when you are a cop.
I am from Germany, too. This sh*t happens here either, even though you have to study 3 years at least to get thrown on the streets as a cop. Police with power hungry egos are not just limited to the United States. Furthermore, Germany is a stop and ID country. German police officers can demand your identification, if you look or behave suspicious to them.
@@callyacaos5339 I mean we often refer to Nazi Germany as "papers" this is Nazi Germany!
Overly sensitive people seem to ignore all sense of logic and thought process.
@@callyacaos5339 in all my life i've never seen police escalate the situation here in Europe if only more i only hear the other party often escalate worse. most people just behave once the police arrive. in all the video of America it's always the police escalating. maybe it's cause not many just film police in Europe.
@@kyoyaposter1701 I can assure you, this happens in Europe, too. Police brutality, or illegal authoritarian behavior by police is not just limited to USA, China and Russia. It happens in every country on the world, because people who should never have gotten cops did become cops.
Maybe you will find some files of overly use of force by police for your country, or state.
We can all agree that the root problem was the employee who became irritated because the man wasn’t communicating and submissive in the way she wanted. Unfortunately I think we’ve all encountered this exact personality type at least once in customer service.
I don't agree with that, but I understand why people do. The video was edited in a way that makes her look bad. People watch this video and assume that she didn't answer his questions to where he could park when she had.
She wasn’t that bad, didn’t even understand what the parking guy was trying to get out of the interaction lol. He’s an idiot.
@@booprice5473 After watching the un edited version, I agree. He was being a bit of a pest.
Yes but the police officer was a real dickhead about it too
yes
'Officer Harris' needs some years of jail time for impersonating a police officer.
I love how judges and prosecutors alike will laugh at this and dismiss but not do anything to make things right for the man held all day and night in jail
I understand his question. Here it is - "I'm going to the library and might be there for a while..because I like learning things. Are there any parking places that don't have a two hour limit?" ...That is what he was arrested for.
His fault for being aggressive
If he asked the question as you have written it, the interaction would have been over in 30 seconds.
You understood his question after the extra explanations with the officers. If I was behind the counter initially, I would not have gotten that. I had no idea what he was asking about without the extra context. He could have been more clear in his question. The officers are full of crap after that though.
@@ihateyou3976 LOL, when was he aggressive?
bruh with how he was talking to the lady i would have never came to that conclusion. its not until the cops show up where he clarifies his question.
"I won't get a ticket, alright. Then we're good."
"I need your license."
And that was the moment it went from any reasonable investigation of a potentially unruly persons into a "Now I'm just going to bug you until you create a scene in which I can arrest you."
He saw a potentially easy target and took a shot at it, like fools do
Yeah I was blown away that it didn't end there. Harris there really is a Moron. It should have ended. But instead he escalated it? I had some Law Enforcement Training when I was in the Army, and I'll NEVER forget what my Instructor told us. "Most of the issues you see with law Enforcement is Lack of Training." That is EXACTLY what we have here. Lack of Training, or Wilful Ignorance.
Exactly. Up until then I was like "this all seems relatively reasonable". The guy did come in pretty hot on the lady at the front desk, I don't think she was completely out of line thinking she was being pranked. But once the cop asked for the license it all went to hell.
I notice that the man didnt get to say "will I get a ticket if i parked longer than 2 hours" to the lady before she buzzer and ask security to come over or something because the guy was talking in a tone where he's distressed whether he will get a ticket for parking longer than the sign is
@@cloroxusthestainlessone4324 its a lot safer than going after dangerous criminals like the one shooting up the uvalde school. the police should have been this bent on identifying that guy.
Keep in mind that every time a cop escalates a situation, or threatens to criminalize otherwise innocuous behavior, you are being threatened by a man in a costume with a gun. he believes that he is justified and can do whatever he wants to you because he is wearing his costume, and all his other costume wearing buddies all believe that too, and will back him up and participate in abusing you for your own good, and the good of everyone else whom they will abuse at a later date.
This poor guy was nervous and had no idea what to ask. I feel so sad for him.
He isn't a poor guy. Well he is because he has no jib and he's homeless but what I mean is he is a frauditor that goes around to record his encounters for clicks and views. He got what was coming to him.
I'm autistic and have a lot of the same issues speaking and phrasing my questions. This is honestly one of the scariest encounters I've seen. I've been called names, been talked down to and asked where my parents are as an adult hundreds of times because of my speech. This is another level and really alarming that this could happen because I need help
This is exactly why I like Travis Heinz channel; he asks logical questions of public service workers, sometimes in a way they find annoying/challenging to their perceived authority but never aggressively. These are questions that can be answered with patience but some workers choose to treat him as less than worthy of human decency. He exposes those individuals (and a few good people too!) These horrid encounters would be unbelievable if not filmed!
Disability rights n just treating some nicely is seriously lacking in modern societies, especially when people think they know u have a autism etc... They see that as a green light to a cert them self as a sudo adult or they are superior, it's sad to see all this potential talent being wasted by dogmatic ideas and stereotypes, I mean I have autism and can speak three languages badly lol
Just remember anyone who treats you of less respect because of a disability, is a total pinecone. CZcams made me edit my comment to keep it more respectful,hence why I used the word pinecone.
at first I thought this guy was being an idiot but your comment gave me a different perspective. we are all different and we synthesize situations differently. we all deserve to be treated w.respect and patience. God's blessings and God's Love to You.
Do you know this person is autistic for a fact or you just assume it?
Travis is my favorite non-auditer. He never instigates conflict. He pushes back on real issues (like where to legally park overnight) and he never curses, raises his voice, or disrespects individuals. I too applaud his behavior. A+
They interpret his calm demeanor for weakness and take advantage of him
Casual Civilian: "Hey, is it okay to park here?"
Police Officer: "... and I took that personally."
"We got a call and I'm here. Obviously that means someone is getting arrested." -Most American cops
This is a totally valid way for a state to run conflict resolution., if that state isn't overly concerned with legal rights or freedoms. Our state purports to be founded on them.
or murderd
@@TrogdorBurnin8or you know, while you're in part right, it's also very much a cultural thing. I live in russia, and it's not normal to behave so antagonistically from the start even here, and our police force is atrocious.
Arrested or shot
Confirmation bias... you never hear about the times that never happens because no one cares...
I like how the police can just hold you in jail and they can drop the charges with no repercussions
Exactly. And being in jail for even 8 hours can have drastic effects on someone's life.
There is too much strength in numbers. This is why the police are not scared. They have backup. They never expect the public to have backup. Make them fear like you do, and things will change fast.
Yup...good luck finding an affordable lawyer willing to sue the police for an unlawful arrest. There are no repercussions.
Srsly, wtf is up with that??
yess thiss is a major problem. and to sue for defamation or libel it is extremely expensive. see my channel, its happening to the guy who made the video.
And police wonder why people don't trust them . . .
If I pass my criminal procedure class in law school I'm going to owe a big debt of gratitude to this channel. You're doing a great service I exposing these police officers and also explaining to the American public what their rights are.
I’d say this guy could be assessed as “socially awkward” at the worst. Cops insisting on identifying people is the best way to unnecessarily escalate any situation.
no. it's a youtuber causing civil unrest on purpose for the sake of views.

Same stuff happens in my small town, also thats what happens when you let people become police officers without proper training and they think the badge let's them do whatever they want
typical behavior from the world's largest GANG
My question is did we watch two different videos. And are you deaf.. the title of the video is arrested for asking directions but he didn't ask for directions he talked about two hours parking. Now if he was lost and he needed directions he could have Google his directions. Instead he talked about two hours parking. Unless he did it to try to make the police officer look bad for views and clicks.
And the thumbnail says "I'm just trying to park " lol can't make up our minds on which is it lol
@@rondolan4489 he asked for directions tho. he asked "where" he could park for longer than two houres.
he could have used google? yeah ok so what? he can also ask a normal person for directions.
the police officers made themselves look bad by exaggerating this situation.
A city employee couldn't answer a simple question so she called the cops. Karen
The lady did answer his questions to where he could park ,even though he kept talking over her. This was edited out.
I hope these officers learned a valuable lesson. Not to violate people’s rights
Person: "Hello, what are the parking rules around here?"
City Hall Receptionist: "You are emotionally distressing me and I'm calling the police."
I would love to hear her tell this story to other people. "this guy guy tried to pull this wild prank on me" "okay grandma."
"it was so crazy he was like 'uhh 2 hour parking???' so crazy right???"
Shut up Becka
Lol he was talking nonsense purposefully not asking a direct question to see how she would react, he was basically doing an employee conduct check which she clearly failed but understand that this was completely on purpose I don't see how people don't realize that when he was obviously not talking normally lol
@@thraxberserker9960 is english your 2nd or 3rd language?
the reason i ask is i could understand what he was asking for quite clearly and no he wasnt talking nonsense he was asking quite simply if there was anywhere local that he could park for longer than 2 hours as the signage was slightly unclear as to where was 2 hour stay and where wasnt.
also fyi not everybody is totally eloquent when they ask questions some do as you say not talk normally
@@gregdunn401 Read my comment again very slowly, he PURPOSEFULLY made it unclear what his exact issue was in order to see how well the public employee could handle the situation, at the beginning of the video he was avoiding asking a direct question multiple times then he clarified after interacting with the police officers because at that point he had already got what he needed.
As someone who is super awkward and has a tough time communicating with others, this video plays into my fears perfectly. Just trying to do the right thing, understand how to do the right thing, and you still just get shit on. I feel for this man.
You can tell he's Canadian
He does come across as a bit to the woman though.
Maybe he's hangry or just super desperate to get out of his car.
It might have helped if he said he was a CZcamsr and that's the reason for the GoApro.
I would totally be pissed off if someone was filming me.
@@mde6006 he doesn't have to explain why he's filming though. He was gone with the woman. And just as well he did film...the idiotic woman called the police just for asking about parking.
He comes of as smug. When the women seems honestly confused with his question he gets even more smug. People need to learn to communicate better.
He knew he was going to act a certain way and got the reaction he wanted. It still could have been handled better though
bro if i was asking for help and someone said "Am i being pranked, are you serious?" id just walk the other way you'll never get anything out of that person
"Ok, Im willing to exchange IDs"
"Face the wall" 😂
So you want the ID or not? 😂
I have never seen a more innocent man harassed and jailed.
How are police in America not completely ashamed to look themselves in the mirror daily after actions like these?
Because they shit gold and live in their own little kingdoms
Look at his CZcams channel. This guy isn’t innocent. He’s up to no good stirring up trouble where ever he goes.

Why walk into city hall and say the town has a problem with the roads and parking? Thats just not a logical thing to do, especially from an out of towner. If he wanted to find out the best parking at the library...why not ask the library? I just don't understand his actions and feel like he was baiting.
That city hall employee is not fit for the job. She should be immediately fired or moved somewhere where she can't hurt the public.
She's hostile and socially awkward too. Socially awkward people never mix well.
why? she isnt in charge of parking.
I am surprised her name isn't Karen 😂
@@jimhunt1592 yea. She and Karl would be a team!!
My guess is that she is the City Clerk. That's an elected position so people actually voted her into that position if I am correct. You can't fire an elected official they have to be recalled in a recall election or they have to be pressured to resign.
My jaw dropped
When he said he spent a night in jail. The dude was literally trying to follow the rules
It started with him not being able to figure out how to park his car. It’s not rocket science to find a parking spot. Then he has some weird expectation with an attitude that this lady is going to be able to do anything for him. Not saying the cops are right but started this whole stupid situation by not using common sense.
not everyone is a supergenius like you
"You are not being detained, you just can't go anywhere but here."
That... sounds like what it means to be detained.
"and 'sit Ubu sit' down there" even a dog would object to these maners:) Egos with guns.
This guy has such a strange way about him but they weren't very kind in dealing with them. No need to arrest him. He was polite. He's just kind of a strange dude.
True!
He is seeking attention. Has camera ready. Probaly looking for easy lawsuits. Sure the police is wrong here. But these people do it on purpose
Indeed, I honestly couldn't understand what he wants!
@RepaleoN Halo mini bootlicker here
@@repaleonhalo9754 Do you go through life making blatant assumptions? Because that's a fool's life to live.
Most police can’t handle being told no, and will illegally arrest you for telling them no.
"Hey can I park here?"
"Sorry, you're under arrest"
"Is this a prank?" she asked while simultaneously invalidating a customer's query and abandoning all pretense that she's responsible for anything more than collecting an easy paycheck. She's concerned about the body cam he's wearing and yet she helped create a situation in which his body cam become invaluable.
She literally looks at him as if he's speaking in hieroglyphics when all he is doing is asking a couple simple questions about where he should park, it's just infuriating how unhelpful and unprofessional she was considering she's employed as a clerk for the city hall..
@@Cynsham By simple you mean, mumbling, meandering, and confusing, then ya, you are completely correct.
What did you expect from a govt employee?
Care and service?
Is this a prank title of the video is arrested for asking directions but he didn't ask for any direction witch he could have Google it on his phone. Instead he talked about two hours parking. There are sign posted for two hours parking he didn't need to go into a police station unless he wanted to make the police officer look bad for his CZcams channel for views and clicks.
@@matthewpaine6908 He literally asked about "two hour parking signs" and offered to show pictures of the signs.
Your comment is the only confusing thing about this video.
I believe the employees at the city hall need to be graded too. The unprofessionalism and attitude presented to a member of the public is reprehensible. Then calling law enforcement to escalate the situation further shows lack of care for the public for which they serve. Time and time again, behaviors and false reports like this are the catalyst for rights violations, arrests, and violence at the hands of law enforcement.
Exactly!
100% agree here. 99% of encounters with City Hall, or something of the fashion, they neglect their duty to 'Serve' the public, and make the public out as criminals when there's zero need. They are the ones that escalate, and then police come, and all they know is how to violate rights and demand ID.
I disagree, the guy was being a karen and acting very suspicious. she was very and confused and probably a little afraid. she was just doing her job to collect a small paycheck to feed her family. she wasn't trying to be a hero or make a statement.
@@chadd990 nah, if the employee had just heard him out a little longer, she would have understood the situation and guided him to a valid parking lot. quit your leftist yapping please
Calling the police is a bit strong... particularly without first asking them to leave if that is what you want them to do.
I think many people don't understand that calling the police is escalating the matter.
But seriously, dude brings a GoPro to ask questions about parking? Really?
I can't believe they fell for this. It's obviously exactly what he was checking for. Well done.
Lol can't believe all the support for this guy he literally travels the country looking for confrontation in carparks and this day he got his content probably after numerous encounters in different states. The cops are by no means all good but this guy is clearly just an attention seeker and deserved a night in jail.
Being an attention seeker is not illegal. I can see being annoyed, but as a public servant you can't arrest people for nearly being annoying. If we trample Constitutional rights for some, we trample them for all. It's the only way the Constitution works.
Travis is polite, and friendly.
The woman who described Travis' conduct as, irate, and called police....seems unreasonably distressed...she's dangerous...has poor capacity to interact with the public...should probably work from home...and find a therapist...before she gets someone hurt.
This is so stupid, after the cops got there they clearly saw he was polite and had legitimate questions about where he could park.
He’s also insane. All those words and nothing coherent among any of them lol. Like wtf is this dude even saying or talking about. I understand why the lady requested police help - he seemed deranged and was making so sense whatsoever.
And need to be charged with making a false call and misuse of resources. If she can't answer questions of someone who clearly don't live there then she needs to find another job.
@@stripeybeast He made complete sense he was asking about the local parking because it was all limited time parking he was trying to find a place to park where he wouldn't be ticketed lmao. Any half brained individual can see that is what he was asking about.
She's a "Textbook Karen"
How dare you ask a public servant for public service!!!
He 100% should sue these POS’s
No one has ever come in and asked her for directions, you can tells. That was probably the longest interaction she had with a person asking questions about parking, ever.
Not far-fetched. Maybe she got/picked that presumably eventless office job so that her own social deficiencies wouldn't cause issues. (Then again, she seemed to be working effectively at a reception counter.)
@@Dowlphin What the fuck are talking about?! Stupid people should be lawfully prevented from talking.
Yeah, probably. It's really not her job to intimately know where parking is or to know the city code. Thats the citizen's job
@@Dowlphin I have experience with small town municipal government, and one thing to know is that they often have high-turnover, since new employees are usually middle-aged secretaries who just got a basic business certificate, so they spend a year or two in a small town office until they gain enough experience to work in a city office.
These types often screw up everything in the office, especially by firing lifers in the office and replacing them with minimum wage employees because, on paper, that looks like fiscal saving (for the short term, until the actual work backs up because nobody knows what they are doing). And since they don't have ties to the local community, they just pack up and move when offered a better job elsewhere, leaving their mess behind.
I grew up in a small town here in Canada and I knew one clerk who basically ran the entire town for 40 years. Then some outsiders took over the office and forced that clerk into early retirement, which really hurt their pension. Then whenever I would go in that office, I would see 6 employees literally standing around, looking for things to do because they were so bored. They would even occasionally phone that old clerk up, saying they will pay them peanuts to come into the office for a day and train these people in how to actually do anything job-related. Then after the administrators piss off everybody in town by gauging taxes, they then move away. I bet they put "hiring manager" on their resume though.
She had 0 social skills it seemed like she didn’t even attempt to understand what he was saying just kept saying how she’s confused and no one else has had a problem.
Officers will NEVER stop this type of harassment, and training for them will never improve, until there are consequences.
The only “consequence” is a 2 week paid vacation and a hefty fine paid by taxpayers... Ridiculous system
There will never be consequences, they're the exact type of people US cops are trying to recruit.
the state is a business and just like working at a store that requires its employees to upsell an item they are promoting to make more sale, the cop doing a warrant check is not for the safety of the public but to generate income
Considering the size of the small town, I would guess that half of its police force was deployed to deal with Jeff. What a waste of resources.
@@CZpersi
They literally have nothing better to do. Most cops are a waste of resources.
I am from Madrid, Spain and always I watch this kind of videos I can't simply believe how police can act like this. In my country this is unthinkable how police can act and treat you like this they look like gangsters it is insane.

How is he unable to convey what his "problem" with the parking is? Just clearly state what you want ...
Exactly. He talked in circles without ever getting to his point. No wonder they called the police on him. They must’ve figured he had mental illness.
Some people really aren't good communicators. He doesn't sound like he's good at getting to the point. I have a friend who can't ask a full question. She'd had been in trouble here!
The video gives me chills. How quickly something nonchalant can be ESCALATED by law enforcement.
You can avoid that by not being so passive aggressive towards them as if you're looking for trouble. He's partially at fault for this.
@@VeraxMusic at what part was he being passive aggressive? I genuinely don't see it. Maybe I missed it.
Cute the law where it’s illegal to be passive aggressive
The cops do this to law-abiding folks all the time. We live in an oppressive police-state.
@@VeraxMusic no he's not, police officers do not have power themselves, they represent the community's political power and protect their integrity.

Women “honey, we are lost, just stop and ask for directions.”

to be fair, the dude filming couldn't articulate a question to save his life.
@@NordicFireDKK You can't be that dense. Right?
@@GWAANTotherocket yea he was acting strangely but didn't do anything to cause alarm.
He could have done a much better job articulating his problem to the reception. Walking up to someone with a go pro pointed at them and saying, “I’m confused about the 2 hour parking at library”, is a confusing situation in itself. What’s confusing him about the 2 hour parking? Why does he have a camera? What is the context of the question? Of course he was within his rights to act as he did but a reasonable person would be confused by his actions.
If he had asked the receptionist if he would be ticketed for parking longer than 2 hours with the same clarity he did the officer’s, this whole thing could have been avoided. The officer’s are clearly out of line but he didn’t help himself. His conduct and manner of speech towards the receptionist could have provided reasonable suspicion for public intoxication.
It's obviously fucked up they called the cops on him for communication issues, but why was he so incoherent lol? He just kept repeating "what's the parking situation" and "two hour parking" without ever clarifying what his actual issue was.
He was just pointing out that he was confused by their big city parking rules and checking where he could park longer than 2 hours. If you watch his original vid that's what any reasonable person would have realised his issue was, and he was never irate. Rambling, odd, strange yup guilty of all three, but none of those are criminal offences. Those staff need customer service training and the cops need training in your constitution.
Yeah exactly, arrested for being confusing?? People in the comments really support that lmao
Dunno man he seemed cringey and trolly. The officer saying “are you pranking me right now” took the words out of my mouth. The guy just made me cringe so I had to stop watching after that.
any nobody got time for his bullsht
For real, some people have social anxiety or other disorders that can make their speech a bit confusing. Definitely shouldn't be arrested for that.
@@GrandHuevotes, so, are any of what you're saying arrestable offenses? That's the real issue, dunce.
Even though “no harm” was done to Mr Heinze the fact that he went to a public office to get advice on HOW TO COMPLY with the local parking guidelines and ended being clearly falsely arrested for harassment is deeply chilling.

@@HelmuthGerka Thats why "no Harm" is in quotes. Physical harm to his person.
The city still made money from him. He paid a fifty dollar fee for his bail. They kept his cash and gave him a check that he had trouble cashing.
@ joe2snj Absolutely agreed. And I'll add that living in America sucks.
Man: "Hi I'd like to know where I can legally park for longer than 2 hours"
Police: "Stop right there, criminal scum!" *Cue Oblivion battle music*
I’m not gonna lie, he did himself no favors by being dismissive of the woman at the window. It’s clear she tried to comprehend his issue and attempted to clarify first. Him cutting her off, asking to speak to someone else and telling her she doesn’t have sound understanding of the situation, even if he was right, is naturally gonna escalate things. You can be correct, but if you take measures to insult people while proving your point, is that helpful for anyone? Even if you’re irritated, there is no excuse for being disrespectful.
“Will I get a ticket if I park my car in a certain spot for over two hours?” Basically this was his concern and if he had said this very clear and concise statement, most likely she would have been able to solidly say “Yes.” or “No.”
This was infuriating to watch . It’s insane how people act when you hand them a badge or give them the slightest bit of authority.

@@decoysheep2023 Not people.
Why is no one talking about the women in the office? I mean lets be honest here.
How are there any officers left today who don’t understand when they are authorized to require an ID? End qualified immunity and require police to maintain liability insurance so the taxpayers stop paying for the lawsuits.
Well likly these little pass by towns don’t have the bandwidth to support a CZcams video. Personally I’m more concerned about the the officers looking like relatives. Might be a single gene pool in that entire town.
It’s not that they don’t understand, they do. They just know that people generally don’t know their right, hell most cops don’t even know their Miranda right outside of the card they’re issued.
90% of these cops are simply out there winging it and doing whatever they want to do and almost always have their entire corrupt city behind them to support their extortion.
Right on!
You really think the police unions and/or city will make the officers pay for these insurance premiums?
Even if they did, the police would just demand a pay raise to offset this added cost.
Long-story short, this will make policing more expensive... which will end up costing taxpayers more money. This is fine and still a good idea.
But let's not pretend the cops are going to bear the financial burden, that just isn't going to happen.
Oh they understood they werent authorized to require an ID, they just didnt care. And when their authority is questioned they care even less and just do anything to assert their will upon whoever is questioning their authority.
It looks like the receptionist woman never gets any visitors in and usually would just shoo them away so she can go back to sleeping through her shift and she finally met a guy who didn't go away.
She did fine. She was helpful and answered his questions to where he could park, even though he kept interrupting her while (lawfully) filming with at least 2 cameras. This was edited out.
I mean, while I do agree that the guy shouldn't have been harrassed by the cops, he went into city hall looking to pick a fight about the parking.
“…make sure you don’t have any warrants…”
That escalated quickly.
Also because they can only ask for it if they have proof of a crime
How is this not kidnapping?!? They ONLY arrested him and held him in jail for 24hrs as retaliation! If I were to hold anyone against their will overnight I would be in jail!!
in the defense of the cops. this guy took 5 minutes to answer, “what was your question?” i would have assumed he was on crack as well lol
He sounds drunk or something
I sympathize with the woman behind the desk. Hines’s conduct is not criminal but it’s just… weird. If someone came into city hall and started asking vaguely and imprecisely about “the parking” and the 2 hour sections” around the library, I’d be confused, too, and worried that I might be dealing with someone having a schizophrenic episode.
Imagine how different it would have been if Hines were more coherent, e.g., “Hello. I understand this may be an unusual request, but I am unfamiliar with this town and its parking ordinances. I would like to park near the library for an indefinite period of time but it seems all I can find are spots with a two-hour time limit. Can you suggest a place to park near the library?”
Well, shoot. I spent 10 years working in retail management, I never once thought of just calling the cops because a customer was being obtuse or challenging. I was even hit by a customer and handled it all on my own. These people are worthless.

I don't think he should have been arrested but he could have worded his question to the lady a lot better. It was really confusing to me.

The simple fact the officer has a thin blue line flag on his uniform is all you need to know about how that idiot was gonna act.
This is insane! The guy wanted to know if there was only two hour parking or some other parking option and they arrest him and hold him in jail overnight? What the hell is wrong with these people? If he has a question about parking and he can’t get more information then an arrest then where does he go to find out. If not them, than who? Why on earth did they imprison him for asking about parking?
That's not even what he asked though. He asked where to park and by all rights she should have said the library parking lot if there was none for the library, pay the meter or obey the time limit. Pretty simple. I have no idea why she called the police though it might have been in fear of a mentally unstable person.

Happened to me on my first day on a job site… 5 cop cars surrounded me and my new “Boss”…😢
It happened to me. Except I was the VICTIM the whole time. And there was plenty of proof on that fact. Yet, in Canada, despite it being completely against the law, when you defend yourself with a weapon, the police will go out of their way to arrest the person who defended their life (even though they had every right to use a weapon to defend themselves, as long as they don't use more force than is necessary to get away) and not arrest, at all, the psycho who originally attacked the person. It took two years for my charges to be dropped, and only after I refused every deal they tried to throw at me. I'm not an idiot, I knew how horrible their case was. Besides, I could not agree to take any deals, when I didn't do anything illegal. Not only that, I wouldn't agree to any deal that made that woman look like a victim. I plan on suing the police and this woman, at least. Even though my charges were EVENTUALLY dropped, it ended up having very serious ,and permanent, effects to my permanent health!

It’s clear the employee was offended that he said “you’re not understanding.” As a result of a bruised ego, she called the cops rather than resolving the issue.
Although the guy could’ve worded himself better. “Hi, I was wondering if I’m allowed to park here” rather than talking about having a “problem”, and how it’s different from where you are, etc. With that said, he didn’t do anything wrong. Hope he sues
He did nothing unlawful, but he was rude to the first lady. He kept talking over her after asking a question. She did answer his question to where he could park, but it was edited out. She was helpful. He seems to know where he could park already, he just didn't like the quality of the parking that was open to the public. The first lady was helpful and did not call the police on this man. Now, the officer who was called by her coworker, he should be in prison and be sued.

Did those cop forget that everything was filmed?
The officer literally said "You have the right to identify yourself to me". Crazy.
He rightly thought he was speaking to an idiot.
Not only did he say that, he also said "I want to run your ID for warrants", basically telling Travis that he thinks he's a criminal with outstanding warrants. In the many hours of audit videos I've watched so far, I've never seen a cop just straight up say to someone that they want to check their ID for warrants. They usually at least try to hide it behind some thinly veiled excuse or just try to scare it out of them with their assumed authority. This cop literally straight up told Travis that he thinks he's a criminal. Absolute scumbag behavior.
I seriously don't understand how people defend police when they're so often like this. Even if you hate brown people, police will ruin your life casually, trample on your rights and find any reason to fuck your life up as much as they can because they may or may not feel like it. They have no accountability to anyone. They are everything the right fears about big government.
Also, for those that forget, rights aren't determined by how charismatic someone is. The constitution and state laws don't create a class of likable or pleasant for creating rights. This dude is a goober, a weirdo and annoying, and he deserves his 4th amendment as much as anyone else.
If a lawsuit isn't followed up in these cases, the officers will be justified in their actions, and it will encourage them to continue with and possibly ever escalate these kinds of actions.
