Just discovered this channel a week ago, and have been binging the videos since then. You got my subscription.
@Jaison Borne Biden has a dog, not a pig! and....pigs bite too 😋
Undercover officers should never have to identify themselves as police officers but once they start ACTING as a police officer they are no longer undercover. very simple.
Sound logic.
It’s surprising that you and I could come to that conclusion, and yet the Supreme Court fails completely at it.
THAT MAKES COMPLETE SENSE
Im a civilian..but i dont agree with the person who is recording..its just a small infraction by the officers to begin with..he purposely challenged the officers by recording everything thus begin this whole shit-show thereby impeding the investigation (from my perspective)..i hate these kind of people who think they are smart but on reality are just a bunch of man-child craving for public affection..boo-hoo...
@@aztechnotronic IF he had ACTUALLY been "impeding their investigation I would agree with you but they were the ones that impeded him so you're wrong on this. And appearing in public AS A POLICE OFFICER nullified ANY claim to "undercover" status.
How the hell can a man in tactical gear with “SHERIFF” across his chest claim to be undercover ??
It's just dumb enough to work! Lol
Florida
As far as I can tell only the title of the video claims that anyone is undercover. It also states that they didn't know they were being recorded. This is a great channel that shouldn't have to stoop to click bait titles.
@@rvrcaction7287 Every channel has to stoop to click bait. Millions of quality channels go unnoticed due to luck of the algorithm.
@@rvrcaction7287 I agree, clickbait titles suck.
In a sane world:
"Hey what's up?"
"Just filming."
"Ok cool. Just don't be in the middle of the road, come on up on the side so you're safe."
"Oh yea. No problem."
The end.
thats why these audits are a good thing....... they just cant control the ego.. if they would just let them film the auditers would leave because thewre not there as TMZs they are thereto fight for rights that have been violated sinve the start of organized law enforcement...
That would be madness first we need 25 laws about when where how who and why a person can walk along a public road another 35 laws about walking, 89 laws about recording, and some statutes and then we have to get a few lawyers involved and that’s just getting started !!
@@alanmorales4140 interesting but we are speakingnabout rights and what is protected by 1st ammed.. im interested in your plan yu spoke could you explain
Sane world: let’s see if I can bait these cops to engage with me. Oh never mind that’s stupid
In a same world, a person who says he getting harassed by the sheriff department, you wouldn't keep going out of your way to harass them. That's just asking to get arrested.
I lost it when that lady walked by and he said "Is she impeding the investigation too?" ROFL
The officers' investigation is so vital that 3 or 4 of them need to stop doing it so they can hassle a random citizen exercising his rights. 🙄
lmaooo the dude was impeding them by simply existing, meanwhile the officers went out of their way to stop what they were doing, and engage this man who was nowhere near their business at hand. 😂 just classic. Reminds me of when you play around and slap your friends face with his own hand and say why you hittin yourself why you hittin yourself? am i right lol
All they had to do was say, “Sir, could you please stay on the shoulder?” Instead dude went straight to finding 8 ways to violate the constitution
Real irony is the claim to be undercover and they exposed themselves because a man with a camera meandered passed. They could have stayed in their nearly blacked out SUVs and would have saved them exposure and any embarrassment but no, their god complex strikes again. To be honest I doubt they are working UC, unmarked and UC are in many locations two very different classes of police work. UC usually won’t even dress in the police gear, maybe a vest but mostly try to look civilian in case they have to separate from their vehicle and follow on foot but a UC vehicle may not even have lights on them, looking at 3/4 of the cars there there’s cherries and berries. So def in my opinion an unmarked unit of police working something. Also in what world would a UC work with 4-6 unmarked cars gathered on a private side road? That’s sus at best.
The cops walk in the middle of the street in order to accuse the dude of walking in the street.
Seems legit
House owner: "Officer what about this dead body inside my house?"
Officer: "Hold on, this guy with camera just walked down the street, looked at me funny, I need all available units"
LOL! Now that's some salt you can sell!!!
But.... according to the title, the cops didn't know they were being recorded....????
Lol

I am so ashamed of my Sheriff's office. How can they get away with this?
I voted for James, sad he didn't win

Keep voting every time he runs.
If he ever does win all the officers are going to hate him and work against him which won’t help achieve what he wants to achieve.
@@Unstoppable_Unicorn
I think it will weed out the bad cops. Good riddance
@@Unstoppable_Unicorn the he should fire them
When police officers demonstrate they are trained to escalate situations rather than de-escalate, there is a problem.
Thats not unusual. Cops will try to belittle you for so long until you get ticked off.
This is the problem with police in this country. I’m not against the police and overall they provide an essential service in our society but the way they are trained is a major failure. How is it that a person that is supposed to uphold the law doesn’t even know or respect those laws? People are arrested every day for trying to assert rights that are clearly granted to them by our constitution and that’s not ok. They operate under this idea that they’ll just arrest you and let the court settle it out. ANY amount of time you spend being detained or arrested is a violation of your rights and an abuse. We don’t need defunding of police we need a re-education of police.
THIS. SO MUCH THIS.
Is cause they have Qualified Inmunity, they use it like a License for all, also to Kill. Citicens real not have rights.
Not to mention the fact that they turn hostile as soon as they see a camera.
The number 1 most infuriating thing I hate about the average police officer in this country is the condescending way they speak to citizens. Whether they’re right or wrong. Whether said citizen they are investigating is being polite or not, they always feel the need to assert their authority while speaking down to everyone as if we were children. I’ve experienced it myself firsthand. All while I was being nothing but extremely polite and respectful to them in return. I almost wish I was able to hold a mirror up to them so they could get a taste of how demeaning it feels to basically get called stupid to your own face all while doing nothing at all to provoke it
Yes, and they take that kind of attitude home. That's why it eventually turns too domestic violence on their part.
The job attracts morons and psychopaths for a reason.
I’ve experienced the same thing! I called for help and was very polite when they showed up. They immediately treated me like I was some scumbag criminal. I was VERY confused as to why they acted that way. Then they twisted everything I said to incriminate me when IM the one who called them for help…..no wonder nobody trusts the police. I legit thought they were there to help. They aren’t. :(((( they’re assholes.
They are the ‘clean up’ crew it is law they don’t have to help you that’s why the cop car don’t say, to protect and serve. Now it says in god we trust
@@damlynch9295 Even worse....
How could the guys on the left and the right claim they're undercover when their vests are clearly marked as sheriff?
can someone explain to me how you can be undercover while wearing a police issued bullet proof vest!!
Search warrants or investigations for protection
Haha with your lights on
Smh this is why you should always act professionally when you’re on the clock. Undercover is STILL on the clock!
But but I'm undercover!
Is an officer "undercover" once they start barking orders and demanding to be obeyed as an officer? If they refuse to identify, aren't they then pretending to be impersonating an officer?
@@richardstuplich8278 It is clear they are not undercover if they identify themselves as deputy sheriffs.
@@Hear-MeoutTwo2 Right?? Plus they’re not undercover if driving police vehicles in obvious gear and identifying clothing. Unmarked and undercover are polar opposite. But heaven forbid people look at this objectively.
No officers are “undercover” in this video. The giant SHERIFF on their vest would be a pretty bad choice of gear for an undercover officer. Lol
worst undercover cop ever - breaks cover to bust the case of the pedestrian in the middle of the road!
Breaks cover? You mean like the flashing red and blue lights and the vests that say sheriff.
Yes I know I am surprised that they didn't notice that
@Andy Vera shut up
If owned a police academy I would use all your videos to train my officers. DREAMS
The problem is since you'd want to do it right it would get shut down as a legitimate place to train
@@JamesLard32 think they meant to train as in what not to do.
@@maninblack1354 I'm aware. I'm also aware of how the corruption works
@@maninblack1354 And I think what he was commenting was an indictment of the state of police training - his point being that if you wanted to train officers correctly and carefully, you would get shut down because the other police are so crap at their jobs that they would feel threatened, or something similar.
In my world we would have robot cops like I robot style. They would treat everyone the same. You could scream your frustration right in the robots face after a ticket and all the robot says is thank you sir. Even make them with a rubber bobble head we are allowed to slap to release frustration.
Those cops 100% already knew who he was if they have had that many interactions with him and he had just RAN FOR SHERIFF. They didn't need his ID.
It's a criminal syndicate, simple as!
The genius undercover cop came out and blew his cover, on camera, just to tell the man he wasn't allowed to stand in the street. Now that's something special.
Well they were investigating the theft of a candy bar by a 4year old, so they had to get some excitement going for the day
L🤫L Once given a badge and gun, Abandon all Logic! 🤦♂️

@@PaiMei667 Assume this and push for the best.

So. What do you think about the Kentucky New Law that you can’t hurt cops feelings. ?
I love that there are people out there fighting for ALL of our rights
That cop sure loves the show Perry Mason with all the Perry Mason references.
It's hilarious they stood there for that long during their super important investigation to argue with this guy about what side of the street he should walk on.
Gang members will be gangsters.
They argued about their authority. Regardless of the investigation they were handling they authority was the only concern.

But what about qualified immunity?
second any lawsuit that results from an officer's conduct should come straight out of the salary and benefit's of that officer or his entire department. There needs to be a better incentive for cops to not break the law.
I think I heard something passed about a week ago. I don't know which state. They'll find some loop hole to turn this around on the people. They always do.
Get rid of police unions and require individual officers to carry malpractice insurance so tax payers are not on the hook when they get sued.
@@utubepunk but you forgot qualified immunity.
It’s amazing how easily distracted police officers get from a guy simply holding a camera. It’s also amazing how none of them can seem to multi-task when they are at a scene.
Cant not multitask just like gta police

I understand your point and agree with it but its scientifically wrong "amazing how none of them can seem to multi-task" its not amazing, its literally how humans work, no human being in existence can multitask to the literal meaning of the word

The best way for an undercover cop to conceal his identity is to argue with a cameraman.
Loool. I was thinking the same thing! Under cover officer # 2 is ready for his close up.
They knew who he was. He ran against their boss. I think they were harassing him because they knew who he was.
The guy with the handicapped parking permit could have at least played his part and walked with a limp!
@@waggtech8793 I wondering how faking a disability is an investigation technique.
Yes because any bad guy knows a real cop would never be that stupid.
Hard to believe they are undercover when the lights are flashing and they are wearing body armor with "Sheriff" written on it.
Ssssssssshhh! You're gonna blow their cover! XDDD
They are american sheriff deupites, basically a hired gun, not real police officers.
It stems back to the lawless Wild West, and the United States never stopped using that outdated system.
I think his point was that they're unmarked police cars.
Seems like they are mixing plain clothes and under cover, though they have used "under cover" as an excuse not to identify the cops.
Also the whole "Didn't know they were being recorded seems a bit suss, since the first thing he said was "I'm recording..."
I mean he only asked the one in plain clothes not wearing a Sheriff vest for his name and badge number. So if he is in plain clothes and not wearing it for a reason then it's not implausible for him to be one of the undercover. He never asked the others wearing the Sheriff vests for their names and badge numbers.
I’d vote for him. Clearly cares about professionalism and right/wrong policing
Thanks for sharing.
I like how they were there investigating what was most likely a serious crime but still take the time out of their day to harass a random citizen.
they dont want the same scrutiny put on them, that they exert on powerless citizens.....no wonder people dont trust them anymore.

“Your Perry Mason stuff?” From officer…” impeding our investigation” …from officer how?
True but this guy was clearly there to goad them into this response.
@@PlutozReal by walking by and video taping them? Even if that wrre true thats some weak shit my dude
The “Perry Mason” condescension is ridiculous. You can easily deal with this man without the name calling Deputy.
Brags about 20 years of experience while behaving like a 12 year old.
Yes, unless the police officer is also an attorney he is playing Perry Mason also by pretending to know the law. They are displaying numerous identifying items presenting themselves as police...really dumb if they're truly undercover their cover is blown. Police really like to recite law they are wrong about and ignorance is no excuse. At the same time they believe they are above the law. Jerks just drew attention to themselves. I would have continued on with my investigation and not drew said attention. A bunch of Barney Fifes.
I was a fan too! Go blow morons!
Lets see if he's going to dare do that to him when he becomes sheriff, and be his boss. HAHAHA! He probably want to resign. The only problem with him becoming sheriff is that he made change, and become just like them, but hopefully he won't.
Cop's with hurt feelings,they know their wrong
When the cop said, " you can't stand in the street " he was standing in the street. Lol.
Pure power abuse, the cops went mental as soon as saw someone pointing a camera on them
Clearly they didn’t approach this man because he broke a “pedestrian law”. They approached him because he was recording and they didn’t like it. And when he didn’t leave, they all came out to intimidate. They aren’t fooling anyone. FTP.

Exactly!!! They have severe guilty conscience. And the fact his ex wife has blown half of these guys is scary. Lol.

“Is she impeding the investigation too” 🤣🤣🤣
Cards are stacked on the side of these clown cops. So much so that even a plain-clothes cop doesn't have to identify. GTFO.
So the best way to impersonate a cop is to act like a jerk when someone wants your department ID as proof.
So let me get this straight. Plainclothes cops don't have to provide their name and badge number because this would "blow their cover." But these Pinellas County plainclothes cops made a point of walking up to the guy with the camera and harassing him, giving us a close-up view of their faces. And now their faces have been broadcasted over the worldwide internet, so everyone in the world can see what they look like. I'd say they've blown their cover.
Surely once an officer dons any piece of official clothing that clearly identifies him as an officer, he's no longer "under cover"?!!

@@kodakbrown4461 Yes they can, the Supreme Court has ruled that they can several times. That corrupt institution has even recently ruled that they don't even have to mirandize suspects anymore.
They can present you with false evidence in order to extract a confession, they can use it to threaten you, they can lie to you about whether something you allegedly did is illegal or not and what the degree of punishment is, etc. But that's the worse part, they are completely legally insulated from their bad behavior.

@@alanparedes2427 and canada. I got framed for a break n enter before and I I arrested for a warrant when I went in for a small charge. The sheriff stated to Mr he had my finger prints. Which was a complete lie
Where does it say that you can't lie to a cop
I like how this citizen thinks & moves. Very calculate & meticulous play, great champaign move. Exposing how that department works in your community, shows what you're saying has truth to it. Law abiding citizens should never feel intimidate by there own police department & officers. They were very condescending & disrespectful to him. They definitely try get him to react negatively. Those officers are definitely ready, willing to violate citizens civil & constitution rights at any given time. This why qualified immunity policy needs to be reviewe & revised on all levels,of law enforcement agencies. I definitely see a new Sheff & better department with you.
Although I agree with this individual taping the PD, one has to understand that when you intentionally stir the pot, you're gonna bring the s**t up from the bottom. If you're looking for a fight you're gonna get one.

I smell a epidemic of NARCISSISM in that department. A habit of being condescending to the public … The rules dont apply to them…. They dont want to be held accountable….They get mad when they are held accountable or bad behavior is exposed and make up ridiculous excuses….They manipulate the scenario to try to dominate when it isnt necessary, but it feeds their ego…Unlike normal people, They actually LIKE negative attention bcz they know they have your undivided attention. Each interaction is new “source”. 😢 The Bully NPD Gang. What do you want to bet they laugh about harassing people behind closed doors?? Does this sound professional and a positive roll model for the people that pay their salary… the citizens they are lowly SERVANTS to? 👁️👁️
The Perry Mason comment was way out of line, but just another example of the police believing they are above everyone else.
The repeated use of it, should have registered a complaint. Dude is high on himself.
When you act above everyone for years you essentially are.
His comment about "oh you're the expert, I've only been doing this job for 20 years" was ridiculous as well. He's not a lawyer. The man isn't a lawyer. They're both on even ground in terms of legal expertise.

The instant the citizen asks "am I being detained" he has just opened himself up to future harassment.
In my opinion, this video would be much better had the citizen simply replied with one "no" when I asked for ID and then, just continued, silently, doing what he wanted to do.
Saying anything to those tyrant cops gives them an edge.
there is some intention of those auditors to escalate to some level. But... escalation to an officer can be looking at them, while they are not at all escalating when up in your face.
6:25 While an undercover officer wouldnt have to ID themselves as an officer, it's important to know they can't legally detain you without Positively ID'ing themselves as law enforcement
"Is she impeding the investigation too" I almost lost it LMFAO
Right? She gave him a: "Don't drag me into your shit!" look. Poor lady haha
😂😂😂😂
I mean, she's doing the same thing, minus a camera, as this guy.
@Weske one? Several multiples. At least you read the comments. So many videos with the same thing repeated ad nauseum.
So basically it boiled down to:
"You're interupting an investigation."
"No, I'm not. You walked out here to me on your own Accord."
"That's true, so here's a ticket for walking in the street cuz you made me look stupid."
Most police stops. like 90% of them lmfao. over paid meter maids.
That pretty much sums it up
Except they didn't try to ticket him and even noted that it was not an arrestable offense.
Not to mention the police walking in the street while threatening a ticket for walking in the street
The problem is he drove by had no reason to be there deliberately got out of his car walked past them with the intent on getting stopped to make content for his youtube Video.. and get interaction for possible lawsuit as he stated he has to many already…
Congratulations 🎉 on making it to 2mil subscribers!
Hats off to these people for sticking their necks out like that . I’ve found that nearly every interaction I’ve had with LEOs end up costing me money . I avoid them as much as possible
As a side note When Mclynas ran for Sheriff he went around the county and pressure washed the sidewalks using a stencil to basically put campaign ads all over the place at almost no cost. brilliant!
Wow, that is really clever, if i ever get a pressure washer im definitely going to do this!
There are videos of the police harassing him during the pressure washing I think on John Filax's channel.
I'm impressed
Did he win?
Evidently he's an expert on sidewalks
Based on the fact that they're wearing a police uniform, I'd say the classification of "undercover" is pretty blown there.
I think its because the officers vehicle was not marked. But I agree?
The little sticker that said "not" before the sheriff fell off.
He gave up the status when he represented himself as an officer and starting giving orders as a police officer I would assume?
@@dustinb1070 I mean that's what anyone with half a brain would think, unfortunately we are dealing with police here.
They all had clothing or self identified as law enforcement. So with that, they wouldn’t be covered under that statute and should have their identities disclosed. Definitely an issue I’d press
Asking for his ID as if they didn't know who he was already... lol
Thanks
Nothing worse than a Guy having one years experience 20 times..
Oh my god, that was written beautifully.

Shit that was eloquent
how is wearing bulletproof wests with "sheriff" printed on them and a car blinking red and blue UNDERCOVER?
With same indicator one cop was beaten pretty good when trying to harrass the wrong guy. His complaints dismissed for not having sirenes going!
Undercover is constantly misused. It's unmarked. They're unmarked police vehicles.
There is only one plain clothes officer there (not really giving orders or handling the case), and a few unmarked cars. Undercover is just a wrong term to use but it makes it easy for many to understand what you're talking about.
🤔🥵
They are not in uniform but the moment they might perform active police duties they need an identifying mark for them not to be mis identified as one of the suspects...or they might get fired upon by fellow officers responding but not part of the undercover cop group...
Nice. Thank you
But if the officer doesn't identify himself, then how are we to know that he is really an officer? If he can't I.D. himself and we don't know that he is an officer, then he has no authority to be giving demands. Because if some random guy comes asking for my I.D. I'm gonna tell him exactly what he can do with that request
@6:12... the law does not prohibit police officers from lying while performing their duties...
And this isn't seen as a major issue
If they are giving you orders, they will be identifying themselves in a scenario. Seems like an extremely unlikely scenario where an undercover officer would lie about being an officer yet try to detain you. The officers in an undercover activity may need to maintain their safety by not revealing they are an officer, goes in line with the reasoning why they would be undercover.
@@JAKE8E8S exactly. The undercover in the video wouldn't identify himself, but he was giving orders to the camera person. Or actually he gave orders first then when asked to identify, he wouldn't. So as far as dude knows, that was just some random guy barking orders.
The fact that there are multiple uniformed officers right next to the guy, who are probably willing to identify themselves isn't enough?
I mean, the undercover cop isn't giving any orders, he was literally just talking. He was saying something anyone could know and say. The one giving orders is uniformed
"Undercover" with the word SHERRIFF emblazoned on their chests
Dude, when a plain clothes detective for example is working a crime scene not everyone knows him or her and the vest is to distinguish themselves as a LEO.
@@HighSpeedNoDrag
thats a detective tho, not a undercover cop. a undercover cop would have nothing because they want to organize deals and be anonymous, they have to be anonymous so the criminals don't think they are a cop.
and it doesn't matter if they don't id themselves, criminals can spot or get rumors about him and that cop is done for. there is a such thing as street smarts.
Yup, it’s not a Undercover LEO - Plain Clothes officers isn’t Undercover!
@@HighSpeedNoDrag You can’t use logic on these haters, they got a ticket or their woman cheated with a cop. They just mad. They also talk big online. Lol
@@gorillaguerillaDK exactly.
That lady walking by was like "Don't involve me in this bro" 🤣🤣
"Don't record us planting evidence or whatever BS we're trying to pull off"
"Is she impeding the investigation too??" I almost broke my neck rollin' off the couch when he said that...this guy's my hero, haha 😂.
Lmao
Can’t lie that’s bad ass that he ran after being ignored.
I watched several of his videos and the entire Sherriffs department was terrible and completely against his campaign.
I really wanted him to win and clean this department up.
@@a.m.m.4592 good for him. I hope he wins eventually. I'm debating getting into politics myself.
Fr such a cool guy id vote for him
Yeah, nice that he ran but his campaign info showed some really wacky stuff. I think his "persecution" is imagined.
@@patmontecki2325 there are plenty of police who would play white knight. I don't know if this man was targeted but it doesn't seem too crazy to me.
I like how those clowns try to surround him. It's like being surrounded by the power rangers.
This is a great Video...I wish their were more like this from California.
Once the undercover deputy has verbally identified themselves as a Sheriff's Deputy, who is acting in their official capacity, with a specific agency, they are no longer considered to be undercover and should be required to identify themselves, just as any uniformed deputy would be.
i’m hesitant to call them undercover because they’re wearing equipment with “sheriff” on it
@@misseselise3864 they straight up put a label on themselves lmaoo
Not to mention that they are all middle aged guys with the word sheriff on their body armor.
I'm not so sure is that simple Parry Mason.
@@ashir555 It actually is that simple, and most (but, not all) departments I have had dealings with require it, by their policy (but, not by law). Once you put on a big ol' vest that identifies you, to the world, as a Deputy or Police Officer and you start performing the duties of a Deputy or Police Officer (acting in an official capacity), you lose the anonymity that comes with being undercover (being unidentifiable as a Law Enforcer) and should be required to provide the public with your identifying information, upon request, for accountability purposes.
"You can't walk in the middle of the road"
"You blocked the side"
"Streets not blocked"
"Correct, I was walking down the street till you stopped me"
Good call ATA!!
Beautiful WORK and I hope you win as the NEW SHERIFF
I'm so thankful for guys like him
Always count on the cops to needlessly escalate the simplest of stuff and abuse their power whenever possible.
Yep unfortunately, they believe it's ok for them to disrespect us.
The wild boar is known for aggressive behavior
how are they doing aything this weirdo is ruining an investigation
Safest bet out there
"Well you have to ID". When the cop said that without missing a beat, that just shows how effortlessly he's told that lie many times. They can't claim ignorance, that kind of thing is taught to you in the academy.
if your not doing anything wrong, there shouldnt be any issue with showing id..
@@JoeGrunt9 except that you have the right to not show it.
@@JoeGrunt9 absolutely, but it should be a personal choice if it's not required by law. Cops are people like you and me, and strangers to most people they come into contact with. If any other stranger comes up to you and starts telling you what to do, you'd most likely tell them to piss off. It's the same with cops when they're only telling you to do things that aren't legally required.
@@Hawkfania you shouldnt have any rights
Show me your papers,Sounds like we’ve herd this before,2022,show your Papers (I D).😳🤔
When the cop who keep calling him Perry Mason asked him a question he should have responded by calling him Columbo
Wearing vests with the word “Sheriff” across them doesn’t look like undercover to me. Their vehicles were unmarked but that doesn’t matter.
Common Perry Mason, knock it off.
Un marked so people their don't take pop shots at them.
@@kfiscal01 it's really counterproductive to keep the cherries and berries on then.
What about the guy in plain civilian clothes? Did you watch it all?
@@TheFounderUtopia acting as law enforcement, yelling he's been doing it for 20 years. You mean that guy
Every time! When they realize they're the ones wasting their own time, they get all huffy and end up just walking away. They just love being bullies and get all butthurt when it doesn't work. Love it!!
If I’m not wrong, wasn’t it the guy who was walking away?
Wow.....nuff said.
This guy gives F to all officer and gives A to all civilian trying to start a fight and actually breaking a law
I noticed that the statute cited for the infraction was in regard to a Highway. In my state, a distinction is made between highways and residential roadways. This looks much more like a residential roadway than a highway; if Florida makes a similar distinction, then it's possible that there was no infraction at all!
I was thinking the same thing! What if a kid is riding his bike on the street? Is he’s breaking the law?! What about peaceful protesters?
I counted about 4 or 5 citations for vehicle blocking the roadway facing the wrong way of travel and all of them Sheriff vehicles
Oh wow, that would be another example of that point not having been examined in enough detail by AtA, actually quite an omission. It is striking how the other points say roadway but that particular one says highway.
What also occupied my mind was the question about changing direction. I guess in that case, if the article applied, he would have to cross the road and continue there. But if it is really a highway that is concerned, that would be quite dangerous.
No differentiation under FL Statutes. Highway means any street etc... Roadway is the actual portion used for vehicular traffic. For ex. two lanes divided by a center median. The roadway would be the paved lanes on either side, highway would include the median, shoulders etc...
@@RyanRamboer-sv3pm NOT TRUE> Under Fl Statutes all streets are highways. The only differentiation is the roadway is the paved area where traffic uses and the highway portion includes shoulders, medians etc...
“None of these deputies even attempted to engage in a productive dialogue” welcome to pinellas county... they’re all like this.
The lead investigator for PCSO 👮🏻♂️ at the scene of FL vs Drejka, the ♿ space shooting, was later cited-fired for misconduct. He went to a crime scene drunk 🍺🍷🍸 & was unable to work. The sheriff fired the detective for misconduct.
I hope he winds up being the sheriff. Imagine all these deputies that harrassed him then having to work for him
That’s typical police behavior nationwide. Welcome to America.
@@TheMityquin no no no no, it’s absolutely not. There’s some great departments out there. I’d personally invite you to Buckley, Washington to see how that department operates but I’m not involved with them in any way. I invite myself to a shit ton of police interaction because of my disregard for traffic laws. All of my interaction with Tacoma PD has been great too, that’s a big department though and I’m sure they have their bad eggs.
@@casey360360 that’s… hard to believe. They’re all like that
7:40 i got tense when the camera turns to see they're surrounding him and the one guy starts repeating "Sir, do you understand the question that has been asked you." Thought it was going to escalate right there.
I live in a gated community in Florida. The number of people who leisurely walk in the road, without being accosted by cops, makes this whole video a joke. Makes you wonder what they were ACTUALLY doing, instead of "investigating".
I live in Pinellas county... this is nothing new. Got pulled over by a cop for having a headlight out at 2pm (that I didn't even know was out (I know no excuse but didn't deserve the following to happen)) and because I said "hey dude" (I say that to everyone) when he walked up he lost his mind, started pacing and yelling/threatening me say dude one more time etc. When I went to pull out my phone to record his tirade he threatened to pull me out of the car and arrest me stating that recording an officer is a felony. I filed a report on him and his supervisor showed up at my door early in the am the next day asking me to explain to him why I filed the report. He said there have been multiple complaints about this officer but a year later I still saw him out there harassing people. In fact, he was screaming at some old lady he pulled over who went through a blinking crosswalk after the person who was using it was already a good 15 yards past it altogether. Same thing pacing, screaming making a scene...
Thinking I should have just pulled out the phone and hit record no matter the consequences... People like these cops in the video and the one that I spoke of need to be held accountable. I know it's not illegal to record here his supervisor said so but at the time I didn't know for sure... Florida has some weird laws and doesn't always follow federal guidelines.
federal law is not a guide line; it applys to all!
@@JohnDoe-mp1zk Tell that to Florida Reps... Our own governor said he will sue/fine any teacher that brings up gays or CRT. He said he doesn't care what the feds say this is how it is in 'his state' and nothings been done to challenge him by the US gov.
“ Is she impeding the investigation too” had me dead!!
The very fact that the officer said "impeding" rather than using a legal term might just mean he was speaking generally. Not every single word in a police interaction has to be analyzed in terms of statutes. They're people, too. He might have just meant that this guy fishing for trouble-purposefully acting in a way that he knew would bring suspicion upon himself and then arguing confrontationally with the cops-was getting in the way of them doing their actual job. Same as if someone came over to my desk at work, started taking pictures of my desk until I asked them wtf they're doing, then argued with me about it, and continued to argue with me about it until I said "screw off, you're impeding me getting work done". It's like the auditing community and society at large forget that cops are people, too, believing that they don't deserve common decency as soon as they put on their uniform. As long as rude or belligerent behavior is directed at cops, these "auditors" claim they're being perfectly respectful and get outraged that their hostility is met with hostility. And then this otherwise awesome channel promotes such escalatory behavior with cops by grading it with an A.
I respect the mission proclaimed by auditors. I do not respect the execution in the majority of cases. And I sure as hell do not respect promoting the behavior to millions of normal / casual viewers as an A+ way of interacting with cops. It's a great way to ensure that the police and civilians stay at each other's throats.
If i had a handicap tag hanging in my window and i wasn’t handicapped I’d probably be going to prison the cop with the glasses is committing a felony he’s making that statement the laws are for me not thee 😮
After 20 years he's actually perfected being a bully but failed after meeting up with the camera
As this sort of dirtball usually does, when confronted with the truth about themselves.
20 years of bullying and threatening the public! Wow and he is not in jail.
The officer, He is a narcissistic psychopath
He's a burnt out "hard-on"
as for the undercover guy that says you cant walk in the middle of the road and tries to explain you need to not be in the middle and that its a civil infraction?
Hard to find a better example of law enforcement “earning the hate”. Ridiculous!
This channel is full of them unfortunately.
Mommy was too strict huh TestyKid? 🤪🤪🤪🤪🥵🤡
This is nothing. They kill people.
@@petertoft70 Part of the job... isn't it. Sometimes they have to.......Little Peter.
@@RLTtizME I'm referring to the "earning the hate" comment. My point being - they do way worse than this, and no, it's not part of the job to earn hate.
I love how walking away from the scene he is once again walking on the wrong side of the road.
Cops think they’re so professional 😂 but in reality we clown them & disrespect them every chance we get lol.
You lack respect and expect it back funny that
"I'm an undercover police officer, I'm in the middle of a serious investigation and can't identify as it will risk exposing me, a real life or death scenario. BUT....maybe I'll stand around to harass someone walking by over pedestrian infractions so I can get recorded and get my face up on youtube" Seriously, how do any of these clowns and their superiors keep their jobs.
Because it’s America and a fricking banana can be a cop...
So glad to hear another police officer stating the facts about these Dicks
When they get the power they lose their brains that's if they had any to begin with.
Thank You for being a Good Cop! We appreciate You!
Yeah!
