Remind me again exactly what service filming a police department parking lot serves? Because that's what they always do and apparently only because they know it will set the cops off.
If the law and order industry hadn't spent the better portion of 50+ years raping the 4th amendment and wiping their arse with the constitution, I'd have a hell of a lot more concern about their concerns. I agree they should have basic safety, but they can and will completely ruin lives based on hunches.

The people who do it are mostly assholes in my opinion BUT the number of cops who show up and immediately escalate the situation for no reason is revealing. Why there management don't tell them to ignore them is beyond me but they can't help themselves. I know they probably spend hours getting 10 minutes of video but they get enough to post a couple of videos a week, most time, of cops showing up and simply escalating a situation....and when it happens there will be multiple cops tied up for a long time. Just ignore the frickers. Go to the complainant and ask if they have been on their property. If they say they have ask them to show the cop where. Almost every time the complainant will point to an area that is an easement or public property....and never has any evidence that the person was on their property. The cop should simply explain that the person is an a-hole and being an a-hole is not illegal and leave. And the probably do just that most of the time...but they don't often enough to give the a-hole with the camera another 10 minute video a couple of times a week from the same police department and often the same policeman.

Stand out front and shoot them the bird or say something objectionable in a City Council meeting. That's the First Amendment and I can get behind protecting that. I don't give a flying frick if we have video of the police department parking lot. I can understand the agency not wanting officers doxxed these days.
Unfortunately for the cops they are public servants and the parking lot is public property and recording video is not illegal. If they ask them to leave, and are authorized to do so, and they don't they can trespass them and if they don't leave or show back up they can be arrested. But usually the cops just start arguing with them and escalating. Its pretty revealing how little of the law cops actually know, understand or care about.

All people have to do is ignore them. They can't put you on the YouTube if you say nothing because people aren't watching nothing being said. But, for some this impossible and they get sucked into the confrontation.
Most people will say something along the lines "yeah but its only occasionally and a few cops" and it probably is....but its also usually the same department and often the same cop over and over and over again....to the point where its pretty obvious their command WANTS them confronting the a-hole because their authority can't be questioned in any manner.

It's amazing how often these situations simply come down to this and cops even say it on their body cam. The fact that so many cops can't just walk away is wild. Do cops ever receive any training on when to just walk away.

Love them. When we stop exercising our rights, we lose them.

When I watch 1st Amendment Audits, I'm more amazed how empty these huge and brand-new Government buildings look with Government employees who are unwilling to help people who pay their salaries. A complete waste of US tax dollars
Most of the time, they won't even let them in the buildings

Probably bc they are ignorant of the law. Especially police. They’ll violate your 1st and 4th amendments in a heartbeat. Even though, they took an oath to uphold those amendments.
To be fair, it’s not necessarily all of their fault. The training in those areas are lacking.
Its far more sinister than that...they are trained to violate first and fourth amendment rights. Especially the 4th. A gracious plenty traffic stops are fishing expeditions where the intent is to violate someone's 4th amendment rights and its by design...when someone bows up against them they are in a shite ton of trouble until the DA dismisses the charges but the damage is done at that point....
Often times the DA doesn't dismiss the charges and people who were searched illegally are taking up an awful lot of room in jails and prisons. Yes, they were engaged in criminal activity BUT the state should be held to the highest standard before stripping someone of their freedom...but far too many people are convinced the system can't make a mistake.

They are a pain but do important stuff.
The crazy part is still having LEOs that fall for it and arrest them only to have the city’s insurance pay a settlement.

That's the issue....they do indeed. Over and over. They simply can't tolerate the public not jumping when they say jump even when they have no right to say jump. The people doing it are assholes but the cops fall for it time and time again. Falling for it is not overly accurate....they seem to enjoy escalating which is a major problem.

They're not filming because it will bring any service in and of itself, the service is to hopefully help local LEOs to learn about constitutional rights.
Cops are not above the law, and the police state, whether it be federal, state or local, is not your friend. Covid should've showed all of you what police will do under the guise of, "public safety." When their master (the politician) gives them an order, they'll blindly follow it.
Less revenue generating and more quality community police work would do wonders for their public relations, but if they don't know basic constitutional rights it's all a wash.
Seriously when you see ICE Agents knocking the windows out of the wrong vehicle and dragging Senior Citizens who they have knocked to the ground around something is amiss. Cops are not your friends. I would hesitate and think long and hard before I called a cop to report a crime. They are simply out of control. I have never had much of an issue with any but I do not trust them any more than I do a known criminal because they have too much power and not enough regulation. Its a bad situation and its getting worse instead of better because they simply can't do any wrong in the minds of far too many Americans. Its all cops, no matter who they work for. Not every individual but the agency is simply out of control and no one is about to reign them in.
You can bet you arse if we ever see firearms being rounded up in the US it will be cops doing it and justifying it because they were told to do it.

My undergrad was at EKU, where a lot of Kentucky State Police recruits go for their 60 hours (if they don't have military or sworn office time under their belt). I shared some classes with those folks because of my minor.
It's pretty eye opening how quickly some of them were willing to forgo basic Constitutional rights to detain someone and had no problem openly admitting that. Made for some great insight and class discussions though. And thankfully with some good professors, hopefully taught some Staties the law.

It is pretty obvious that they are actually trained, encouraged and rewarded for NOT walking away and for escalating a situation. Again they do it time and time again, same agency, all too often the same cops and the same "auditor". Thats the training they receive and the job they are paid to do by their command. It wouldn't happen otherwise. If they got their arse chewed out for responding and escalating the first time and were fired for subsequent events they'd stop....they are actually encouraged to behave the way they do or they would at least be embarrassed during a daily briefing.....

If it is truly a concern they should put a fence up and a gate. Issue solved. It is not about safety, it is about their ego and someone questioning their authority.
You can't eat a booger in this country without a camera catching it....why do cops deserve anymore privacy than the policed? Whats good for the goose and what not....

It teaches police the law. Most coops think they can demand id if there is reasonable suspicion, but they need reasonable suspicion OF A CRIME.

Try to exert BS authority and shite happens.
Every cop, or anyone in the general public should know whats allowed in public.
I 100% love the people who get theirs phones out to record when theyre complaining about people recording.....
Cops, if for no more reason than to make their jobs slightly easier, and lord knows it is a hard assed job at times, should indeed know exactly what is allowed and where. When some dufus is videoing a storefront from the sidewalk it is perfectly legal....when someone calls them they should simply inform the person that what the dufus is doing isn't against the law but calling about a crime that did not happen is. Seriously, in most of these videos one could argue the complainant had broken the law...especially when they claim the person had come on their property and the person has video evidence to the contrary...and especially when the person is known to cops in the area for knowing full well what is legal and what isn't....but they just can't help themselves, they simply MUST exert their authority.

I used to watch Big Nick From South Florida because he was and is funny as hell when he is doing it....but his intro music is godawful LOL. Whats truly amazing about him is the number of times it is exactly the same cop...over and over acting in exactly the same manner. They all know him by name in the area...most will come up and bump fists with him....and many who do so proceed to act like the tyrant they are even knowing who he is and what he is doing. He is also one of very few who will publicly apologize for saying something mean in the heat of the moment and will also upload videos of cops doing what they should do when he is around...so he isn't all one sided just mostly LOL...

It’s disgusting on how cops let their ego dictate their actions. Even though they have body cams that record their actions, they will lie and conspire against the public.
I’ve been watching these videos for a while now. It’s rare to see a cop come on the scene without swinging their ego around.
