Behavior

[@zertec4562]

4 armed men attacked me ( a 4'11 98lb female) they accused me of being intoxicated which later my blood work proved 0.0% alcohol. They wrote a false statement saying they could smell the metabolized alcohol emanating from my breath. They forcibly cuffed me, forcibly shoved me in the back of their car and also wrote a statement saying I attacked them and broke their camera, which also later proved to be false since the camera was working from beginning to end. They unlawfully and illegally entered my vehicle and stole all my items in my vehicle and put them in the trunk of an unmarked vehicle 2 items were never returned back equalling about $600 in value. Again, this is 4 armed men at 4am in the middle of nowhere with no other witnesses to protect me. I was able to dial 911 to report this attack and they ran up to me and snatched my phone from my hands and broke the screen while I was in the middle of the call with 911. They had my vehicle towed and they locked me up for 3 days and my family didn't know where I was. 4 years later and 6 corrupt attorneys later. All 6 charges they had placed on me to include felonies were dropped. But I was never allowed to defend my case in a court of law. The reason why this lasted 4 years is because the prosecution was trying to get me to plea guilty to dwi even though the blood work said 0.0% alcohol. Talk about corruption. I never got any justice. Never got my stolen items back. Never had my phone repaired. Never got financially compensated, in fact I was charged with many fees. And I still have PTSD from criminals who emporsonate law enforcement while totally violating citizens and the US constitution.

We opened it and that same cop barged in with aggression and yelling. "WTF DID I SAY THE 1ST TIME?? SHUT THIS PARTY DOWN RIGHT NOW. HE WAS WALKING IN THE HOUSE AND SCREAMING AT EVERYONE." We were completely shocked. And I was furious so I demanded if he got a warrant and that he cant enter my house. He was like "what the fuck are you gonna do about it, Boy??" And I told him hes being recorded right now and I told him to get the fuck out. He sized me up and wanted to harm me so bad. I asked for his name and badge # and he told me to fuck off. I got his plate number and filed a complaint. Come to find out this cop had over 30 complaints in the past year alone. He was later fired for breaking a 13 year old boys arm when he slammed him.

Around 8-9 years ago, two cops from the local police department (this is in Texas ) tried to rush an apartment a few doors down from me. No idea why. They had no warrant (I could easily overhear the conversation). The husband of the family that lived there slammed the door in their face when he found out that they didn't have a warrant. They proceeded to try to break down the door. He called the sheriff's department about breaking and entering by two renegade cops. A sheriff's deputy lives close by in the same apartment complex. He got the call. He came over in less than a minute with a shotgun on the two cops and arrested them on the spot - they had entered the home by that time. They went directly to jail. They were both fired. This never went on the news.

​@@kennybachman35exactly. Every time I hear someone talk about a good cop or that they're a good cop or whatever, I asked one question. "How many police officers have you filed charges against?" Every cop on duty has seen another officer commit a violation. If that cop allowed that violation to stand, they're just as bad as the other one. Two of my three good friends are actually law enforcement. One of them got a Harris County Sheriff's Department Lieutenant thrown in prison for stealing a bunch of County property. The other one is actually on a video he's a sergeant, running around on KZbin actually correcting one of his officers who was trying to ID the passenger in a vehicle. I was so proud of Shawn when I heard his voice correcting him. Anyway, I know two good cops. I know hundreds of bad ones.

[@hokehinson5987]

This happened to us! In volusia county. Our son violated parole. He used our address against our request...after working with the parole officer giving any address where he might be. The deputies came knocking on our door at 2am we knew we did not have to answer the door. Without a writ of search warrant but these los violated our search & seizure rights. Searched our property in back yard without pemission using very powerful lites, banging & pulling on doors trying to open them. Finally they came to the bedroom window peering in with their lites brighter than the sun! Could heard them mumbling among themselves.." hey there's the old man lying in the bed see him"? Finally after about 20 + minutes they left. Guess what? the same 2 returned at 2pm next day. They threated arrest for harboring a fugitive. Told them well that has to be proven. One saw a very expensive bicycle behind me as I cracked the door asking whose bike? Answered I just bought the bike for our grandson...deputy immediately shot back your son? I said no the person you want is 40 + yrs old and a fugitive I would not buy that person an $800.00 bicycle. Eventually the spokes person became less agitated. A kinder personality overcame his demeanor. We negotiated though the door way. I should've stood my ground yet, one must always weight the out come of when to stand and when to step aside. The deputy stated well, if if you have nothing to hid may we come in for a walk thru...then we will leave and enter in report you are not harboring. So they walked thru even into our religious sanctuary...even though they could tell it was just that. It all ended well. No harassment since, but in today's society with goverment departments interconnected harassment could always manifest on many levels. The police state is alive! our bill of rights are unknown to these indoctrinated lEOs. Its tuff for the petty criminal...they are treated like scum. Parole is a joke, just a way to intimidate and collect revenue. The petty criminals are many times forced back into crime because the system is against hiring an excon. Definitely no rehabitation in the system any longer. How do I know? My dad worked for 32 years in the federal division of corrections & close to ten years after retirement for the state prison system. It's far worse today then his time and rehabilitation usually didn't happen unless there were supervisors like Dad who pushed for it, created it, provided opportunities for those inmates who wanted it.

"you better be able to prove it". Acknowledging once again, LEO's word will always carry more weight than a citizen. Which begs the question, why is it when it is proven LEO's have acted unlawfully, then by and large, get lesser or no sentences?

[@pancakes8816]

@COOL HAND VETS wrong, qualified immunity makes them basically not liable. Plus, a quick Google search shows that it doesn't mean you can resist with deadly force if needed

[@glprime2814]

@Stoic Mexican that immunity ends when armed citizens rise up, as has been proven several times, especially after several citizens threatened to lynch these oath breakers when they tried to over step their bounds. One case that comes to mind, is when a sheriff and the New Mexico VA tried to strip a veteran of his weapons.

[@OrlandoFace]

@COOL HAND VETS Theory vs in practice. Don't know about you, but I'm not willing to put my fate in the courts hands if it can be avoided. I've been unlawfully arrested (as confirmed with an internal affairs report that sustained my claim of such), and there was no repercussions for the officer that violated my rights, and I'm still glad I didn't resist the arrest, as odds are I would have taken the loss to my life, or freedom at the hands of that system you just cited.

Government takes care of their own. And taking care of your enforcers is of upmost importance.

[@anonymous-tn6ij]

James I’m still confused about the law so if an officer is unlawfully trying to enter your property and you have to shoot them to defend your life do you put them in recycling or just put them out with the regular garbage

[@92656trw]

Considering just how toxic police culture is, I’d suspect that the carcasses would be toxic as well.

If this has happened 6 times, why do they keep opening the door? Talk through the door, then ignore them. If they had probable cause they would have a warrant.

[@stanmonk2851]

Exactly. I would add don't even talk through door, don't answer the door.

[@msbelindab5231]

This is why locking security doors are so important, you can talk to whoever you need but they can’t intrude or grab you.

[@kidlargo1]

My storm door is always locked. I can open the main door and lower the glass on my outer door which pulls down a screen at the same time. I had a cop grab the handle and try to open it as soon as I opened the door. The look on his face was priceless when it wouldn’t open. I told them both their chance to talk ended the second he grabbed that handle unless they had a warrant. They were there cuz the neighbor heard my guitar and called them. I closed the door and they left.

[@ShmuckCanuck]

I mean I’m a jay treaty native and you’d be suprised how well “sir is a treaty native this is my proeprt and if you don’t get off now your never going to” Works Cops might not run from an armed black dude And they might tell a white dude uttering threats “sir I’ll arrest you” A big angry narive loonts out your breaking the law but if he wants to get physical you’ve got cousins? That cop is running the fuck away Crying Shittinf in his pants And then frantically looking up the phone number for the atf who are gonna laugh at him And then calling the fbi who let him know he fucked uo and they’ll be sending cops to investigate the cop for breaking the law because “they’re allowed to hire lawyers now and we don’t need that smoke “

I think this is James 2nd best video. The 1st being the one where he asks to breathalyzer that detective.

[@CommanderKlag]

@@eldia-bros7665 So if the cop can somehow get you to open the door, they can take the door and hold it open by blocking it with their body ? That was not answered. I think thats the most important question and it was not answered. So I think the video gives a poor level of factual information, which is not helpfull except to stir emotion. Which always favors the cop. And is not educational because of the high confusion caused by excess emotion.

[@revirdt]

They have to get it through their heads, that uniform does not give you the right to break the law. Times are changing, if you get caught, you're screwed. Bad police are getting fired, sued, and sitting behind bars as we speak. Practice integrity and honesty or you will be weeded out. It's that simple.

[@chrislaprise398]

This cop need to fired. Such crooked cops need to be prosecuted for breaking and entering to full extent of the law.

[@al1383]

I wish James would've asked "what if they aren't allowing me close my door at 1am in the morning". He did ask "if a cop was trying to illegally enter the home....". But the sheriff's answer may have been different if asked about not allowing the homeowner shut their door. The "locking the house down" is just simply watching the house, front and back, to see who enters and leaves, from public property.

[@37thgungrunts]

The courts have ruled that's illegal. The cops are home invaders

[@JamesFreeman1]

I think she answered that question when she said, "if you can go back inside and shut your door, you should, but if they aren't allowing you, then you do what you have to do." Time stamp 11:52

pretty sure preventing a home owner from securing a threshold is an element of B&E, you're forcibly restraining a property owner from going about their business with/on their property that you have no right to take hold of
