Lol these are all BASIC rights that the cops are ignorant of.
When a cops "opinion" becomes law.
OMG, so embarrassing.
I would have made them carry me.
Perhaps Mr Knowles could argue that because his signs were aggressively slapped off him and kicked, that he was in fear of being assaulted, thus he dropped to the ground on threat of illegal arrest? Resisting surely only counts when it is a legal arrest?
ID really is like a drug to American police, they need it, they crave it, and they'll break the law to get it
There is a difference between profanity and vulgarity. Otto's signs may be considered vulgar, not profane.
The cop said it all for himself and the victim ignorance of the law is no excuse
The fact that these disgusting garbage cops didn't spend time in prison for this conclusively demonstrates that our "justice" system is completely and irredeemably illegitimate. The only way to restore any level of legitimacy is to remove all forms of legal immunity for all public offices. Government shouldn't be allowed to commit crimes.
38.02, learn it officer before putting on a badge
Any officer who justifies violating rights with "Well, we got a call…" should be fired on the spot.
None of the 3 "law enforcement officers" there cared about the Bill of Rights, or even the Texas ID law. Yet, people will still say "Oh, it's only a FEW BAD APPLES." I guess this guy unfortunately happened to draw three of the rare bad apples at the same time. What are the odds?
This is how cops are trained. To VIOLATE your rights. That need to stop first.
⤠OTTO he's awesome… 😂
The ONLY criminals in this entire video are the cops. I doubt any charges for kidnapping or false imprisonment will ever be filed against them, but they sure as hell need to be if we're going to start holding them actually accountable.
Because you can do something doesn't mean you should do it. This is nothing more that click bait for clout. Don't be this guy. Are we now reduced to people making up stuff like this to goad police vs actual bad police behavior? Dude gets a D- for his belly flop and laying on his back like a dieing whale. What a clown
Yay! It must be happy F the cops day!
Always love seeing Otto assert his rights
We shouldn't have to be bigger people than the cops. They're big enough already.
I'm sorry this body flop was unnecessary and comical. 11:00
What exactly did his signs say and he was out there protesting for?
Talk about Texas cops thinking we're in the past. The world is now a different place whether they wanna accept it or not.
Yeah let the taxes we're forced to pay go up ,defund these useless tax parasites what a joke on America.
3:22 and they are blocking the opposite lane of traffic with 2 cars
He won.
3:03 Tyrant feels like a
big girlreal man nowThe flop at 4:56 was pure gold.
Looks like these cops don't know the Constitution
cops acting like thugs.Typical
It's absolutely shocking how stupid, disgusting, psychopathic, and blatantly incompetent law enforcement officers are
Cops like this needs fired. They think they are above the law.
First, never ignore the police. That's a clear and present sign of an bad auditor that does more harm than good. It may be your right, but its not something any judge is likely to sympathize with.
Cops, good or bad are a part of the criminal justice organization meaning the judge will always have to acknowledge it in order to make a ruling. Besides, by not responding you give the the cops a valid reason and legal cause to stay and further investigate (or intimidate).
If you're doing a First Amendment audit it's OK to tell them that. If they ask for a reason or additional details about your purpose. Give them your Youtube channel (ref. About Page) and tell them to LIKE/SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE to your channel. Now you can plead the 5th or just keep repeating the above statement.
If you end up in court now, the focus will be on the cop that has to defend his reasoning, not you.
The sign is not a complaint since it breaks no laws. The 911 operator should have told the caller that. The first glitch in our antiquated system is the poorly trained 911 operators. Profanity, verbal, signed, or written, is distasteful, totally low-class, but it's not illegal.
One more thing, don't ask the cops if you're doing something illegal. For cops can lie. And second, they will frequently misrepresent the truth to get you to comply. Or trump up a charge (like they did here) in order to arrest you.
Besides, if you didn't already know if your doing something illegal you shouldn't be an auditor. First rule of Auditing: Do you homework. Check and double check the law. Then check again.
One more thing, Passive Resistance? It occurs to me that charge could be a universal charge that applies to just about anyone since I don't know many people that want to be arrested.
When did cussing become against the law?
Lol – My only takeaway from this video right now is that it's literally a crime to fart in public here.
This lawsuit was settled a long time ago. He won. I think only Jeff Gray has won more lawsuits then him.
Cops don't give a Damn about the Constitution OR the Oath they flapped their gums saying…..
Profantiy. They should know by now that profanity, in and of itself, is not illegal. What was it that that cop said? "Ignorance of the law is no excuse"? Oh the FRIGGIN IRONY!
ACAB
Uh oh, the cops are the only ones who broke the law. The cops need to go back to school and learn their job before putting on a badge.
I am moving Otto to a Solid A… +5 points just for being one of the greats.
CAUTION: Blue Line gang at work.
New slogan for Texas
Come to Texas where our Police don't Know or Understand the Law…
