@@OutDehFamily Ballentines was all around there. The workers used to watch us say the Pledge of Allegiance during their morning break when we went to school at St Al's. The second pipeline going into the river (just past Mott St) is where the rinse water from cleaning the beer kegs used to empty into the river. Ballentines used to supply the school and the church with their heat from their steam plant. I still remember the barley trucks with their chain drives and steel wheels pulling out with hot barely.

Public video cams has been a very tough transition for LEO, They went from stating that they believe in the constitution to actually being exposed for their actions.

[@nachopretzel3533]

That is true... I personally know of situations where pigs have escalated or fabricated aliagations just so they can feel powerful.

[@stillwater7]

Exposed to illegal behavior is why cops don’t like video cameras, otherwise it would be “I have nothing to hide, film me anytime”. No articulate suspicion of a crime, hence no show of the ID. Photography of public buildings from a public space (navigable river) is not a crime. One million men and women died fighting for USA freedom, what better reason not to give up your rights?

[@napalmholocaust9093]

Being somewhere, especially on public land or water, Is Not a crime nor in itself suspicious. The law harassing people without cause is a threat to us all.

Newark looks better than it did back in the 60's/70's.

[@stephenbrand5661]

We sold my grandmother's house across the river in Kearny back in 2011, and it had already gotten a lot better by then. Newark was absolutely awful when I was a kid in the late 80's early 90's, but it's made a lot of improvement since then along with the rest of the NYC metro. Even Hoboken was sketchy back then, but now it's practically as expensive as the city!

When I was a kid, 60 years ago I lived right there and used to play along the banks of the river. I lived right up the street from where the storm water enters the river. Sure does look different. A lot of things are gone forever. I remember playing on the seesaws and the swings at Riverbank Park and going to the Ironbound Red Shield Boys and Girls Club. St Al's Church is still there but the school is gone. The Dairy Queen is gone and well as Park Stand Hotdogs. Thanks for the videos.

Tell the cops to kick rocks. They have absolutely no right to ask for ID in the first place. Secondly it is well established by case law that you can photograph ANYTHING you can see from a publicly accessible location. You can not trespass the eyes. If you simply ignored them and paddled away they would have done nothing but stand there and look stupid.

The cops violated the boater’s 4th Amendment Rights. They need probable cause to ID you, this isn’t Nazi Germany. Furthermore, the Supreme Court has already ruled that video taping in public is not a crime. It’s a protected constitutional activity under the First Amendment. If you don’t exercise your rights you will lose them like this guy and be violated.

[@FLyAgaric421]

I agree with your sentiment.. but you’re wrong. Police don’t need probable cause to ask you a question.. “You don’t happen to have ID do you?” He voluntarily handed it over. You have a lot of studying to do..

[@quill6211]

Actually the context wasn’t asking. Did you not watch the video?You don’t happen to have any ID on you because I want to see it is the proper context. The boater should have known his Civil Rights and told the cop to kick rocks.

NJ is actually pretty close to N Germany lol. There are police departments everywhere in the state, and there's still crime because they selectively enforce and go harass people that are easy and have money for them. They also don't believe in the US Constitution either.

The police were very cool, I was a bit shocked to see them come down to the water

[@jasonmacneil2256]

​@OutDehFamily Good for you. They were just being careful because of the climate of the world. Those like the goofball above want to whine and complain about everything when the cops get involved. You, however, obviously have good common sense, and we're cool. God bless you, Sir and thanks for the cool video!!

I'd love to hear what your KZbin law degree has taught you. 🤣

I’m happy to see they are monitoring these areas.

The river used to run multiple different colors years ago. It’s been cleaned up a lot, but there’s still no way in hell I would jump in it. Did you see any bodies on your trip?

[@gerardmcaveney332]

The Federale's probably sent the police after you went by their building .

[@OutDehFamily]

I think you’re right!

What we do to our waterways and groundwater is truly disgusting. We can't claim to care about the planet when we see this trash every damn day.

[@heribertosarmiento1265]

Look for al that say "No ID" after the two bomb attempts to NJ transit I say anyone that gets close to NJ transit property just show the ID and cops will leave you alone .Plus did anyone of you notice the ramp was close so they didn't expected any boaters, once is open is another matter.

@@heribertosarmiento1265 you’ll learn that cops aren’t your friends. there was no reason to ask for his id the whole point of them asking was because he was filming which is protected by the first amendment so there is no real reason to make contact with him in the first place…..so the cop at best is just ill informed or at worst knows that he had no legal obligation to give up his Id and the cop is just fish ( looking for a problem)……that’s like taking a picture out in public and a cop using that as an excuse to check you Id….oh wait that’s exactly what happened…..and you say just give it to them

@@b.i.s9915 yawn here we go again you think I’m “bOotLicKinG” you don’t know me or where I grew up. I been living in NYC since 1990. Dealt with stop and frisk during Giuliani era. But I won’t hear me saying that bs of “all cops are not your friends”. I dealt with cops day in and day out but I wouldn’t be caught in places I shouldn’t be at when the doors are locked. If they are open then the cops wouldn’t even bat an eye lash. Second NJ transit was targeted by terrorist and thanks to those @ssholes I almost became a victim of it, thanks to “insert deity’s you worship here” the bomb failed. So yeah if anyone that in places they shouldn’t be they need to be ID.

[@jaimhaas5170]

Wow. Complete violation of your rights to stop you and ask for ID. What crime did they suspect you of?

[@FLyAgaric421]

Incorrect. A cause of action isn’t needed to ask a question, had he declined and then they forced him to present identification under threat of arrest, then you would correct.

[@jaimhaas5170]

@@jaimhaas5170 Did they say he was detained or arrested? They clearly said he was not doing anything wrong. I wish he had clarified, "Is this a consensual conversation?" And if they said yes, then paddled away. In this case, I don't think they violated his rights. I think he willingly gave up his rights up during a consensual conversation.

@@kbc1883 if he is doing nothing wrong then by definition he is neither detained nor arrested.

[@kbc1883]

@@jaimhaas5170 Yes, it is clear to us as informed citizens. But I’ve noticed that it is a very wide thing to clarify verbally on camera so that there is total clarity captured. There are lots of videos where police get pissed off when somebody doesn’t agree to identify, and then they turn around and say that the person was detained and try to edit history and make it seem like the person was legally required to ID. So my point was that he should have forced the police to very directly and clearly confirm that it was a consensual conversation on video to protect himself should the interaction taken a turn if he had declined to identify.
