  1. Thanks for joining us for another episode! I'm working on a full length documentary on modern policing and informed citizens. Let me know what you would like to see in that video in the comments below. Cheers!

  2. Physical abuse by a police officer is a serious violation of constitutional rights and can lead to the loss of qualified immunity. If an officer uses excessive force or engages in physical abuse during an encounter with a member of the public, they may lose qualified immunity if a court determines that their actions violated clearly established constitutional rights. Courts assess the reasonableness of an officer's use of force based on the totality of the circumstances, including the severity of the alleged crime, the threat posed by the individual, and whether the individual posed an immediate threat to the safety of the officer or others. If the officer's use of force is deemed excessive or unjustified, they may lose qualified immunity and be held personally liable for their actions.

  3. Everyone should be required, on threat of federal prison and a seizure of assets, to identify upon request. Such requests should be lawful orders. If you have nothing to fear, you have nothing to hide, and if you have anything to hide, you should be punished.

  4. I belive your wrong about they don't have to tell you what crime they have you on just I'd . That is wrong they lie all the time . They can use that all the time to I'd . There for they can't with hold till the court room they have to tell you. Or its kidnapping and none lawful. Why cops get no respect at all .

  5. The driver and passenger can refuse DUI testing, actually. In no state can they penalize a pre-arrest refusal to do sobriety testing or breathalyzer. Post arrest, you likely need to do breathalyzer or face a license suspicion or warrant for blood test.

  6. 'Begging the question' is a fallacy of formal logic, i.e. circular reasoning where the premise is assumed in the assertion. You meant 'brings up the question…' It might be worthwhile to get your expressions correct if you're going to offer information on important civics topics like this video of yours does.

  7. So, let me get this straight. Cops can lie during an investigation. Cops can compel you to act contrary to your constitutional rights if they deem your actions suspicious. Cops can lie about what you have done to justify claiming you are acting suspiciously. Cops can claim they feel unsafe to justify assaulting you. Cops can lie about feeling unsafe.
    Judges, knowing cops are trained to use lying to "investigate" suspects, choose to believe them and take their words as evidence.
    Prety much sounds like cops can do whatever they want, and walk all over your rights.

  8. They can ID the passenger if they make an arrest on the driver for something other than a driving-related offense. If they simply ticket the driver for speeding, failing to signal, etc., they cannot legally demand ID from the passenger.

  9. The deck is stacked in favor of law enforcement so it is best to invoke the rights that citizens possess such as the 4th amendment protecting from illegal searches and seizures and the 5th amendment which protects against self-incrimination and gives us the right to remain silent. If stopped by police as a pedestrian or a passenger you should invoke these rights by name to have it documented that you knew and correctly asserted your rights. Any actions by police after you assert your rights could cause them to lose their “qualified immunity” and subject them to investigation and discipline.

  10. I was broke down on the highway and a trooper came up lights on asked me what I was doing.i explained what was happening and was waiting for a tow truck. He said hurry up and get the fuck outta here . True story. Then they wonder where the hate comes from.
