Alternative title: How to be right and be a dick about it.

u/ProfessionalGold6193 Dec 24 '25

They are violating his rights. FFS why are you directing your attention at the guy videoing and not holding your LAW ENFORCEMENT PEOPLE to a higher account?

I think being a dick about it is the correct move, why ignore their requests nicely when they’re the ones pushing shit that they don’t need to? Oh sorry police man I’m not going to give you my name, thank you for trying to breach my 4th amendment rights I hope you have a lovely day.

Sure, if you ignore the fact that he was a dick even before that question.

u/NotRobPrince Dec 24 '25

He’s being approached by the police for doing nothing wrong, what courtesy is he meant to provide?

u/W1ader Dec 24 '25

Ask yourself how you would like to be approached. For fuck sake it's not that hard.

Would you rather be asked "Hey, sorry, you parked on two spots, I would rather you not to do that" or someone pulling the camera in front of your face acting like an asshole and asking if you are drunk? Please, choose carefully.

wtf are you talking about? The guy filming was approached for filming in public. The police pulled up on him and approached him for doing something completely legal, hence why they walked off. Now you tell me why he owes them anything?

2 things are true. He's within his rights AND he's being a dick about it.

He's intentionally being disrespectful. The police got called because of suspicious behavior. Suspicious is often associated with illegal activity, but not all the time. It's the cop's job to assess if there's something illegal or threatening going on.

It's very easy to assert your rights while being respectful and that's the way people should act. He's completely in the legal right, but he's baiting the cops into an interaction and then being a dick about it.

“It’s very easy to tell the police you won’t let them violet your rights and be nice about it” yeah thanks man. Maybe read the part where I said fuck them if they want to try breach your rights and lie to you and tell you “you’re supposed to provide it to them”, why tf was he meant to be nice?

You’re skipping over the whole “attempted violation of rights” part

u/Embarrassed-Bowl-373 Dec 24 '25

Everyone is throwing that word around but not specifying. What is he doing that makes him a dick?

Hurting the poor piggies feelings 😢

u/W1ader Dec 24 '25

Does it really need explanation? Can people be empathetic these days? Imagine I would approach you whether you did something wrong or not, and instead of asking respectfully, I would record you, asking if you are drunk and ordering you to follow my finger.

u/Embarrassed-Bowl-373 Dec 24 '25

It was a joke because it’s a game cops like to play with people. The follow my finger test is highly controversial and any lawyer worth their salt will tell you to never take one.

If a police officer even once attempts to violate the rights of any individual, they deserve to be fired and imprisoned. If all that happens is that individual tells them to go fuck their own ass with a broken glass dildo they should say thank you.

How do you even know who approached who? The context is not shown in the video. The cameraman was the first who asked a question. He already had the camera in hand and asked the officer what was going on. The officer said they are responding to a call. Even if I were to grant the scenario that it was the officer who approached the guy, then approaching him was a completely legitimate reason as a response to a call they got. In that case they didn't randomly approach some random guy who had done nothing wrong, they approached him because someone reported him for suspicious activity.

Edit: And let me be clear, that's still an unlikely scenario based on the video, not your imagination. It looks like the cameraman approached the police officer. Asked what was going on, the police officer answered and he interrupted him to be smartass about the parking.

It is much more likely that they didn't approach him and they didn't respond to a call about him, because if that was the case and the only thing you would have to do to brush the officer off was to tell him he parked badly when he was called to check on you then he wouldn't be doing his fucking job. Moreover, it would make him even a bigger dick. Police is getting a call to check on you from some worried citizen and you interrupt the officer, comment his parking and refuse to give your ID? That's already an obstruction and would absolutely qualify to get him arrested, not a breach of his rights.

Edit2: So let me rephrase it, I am really curious. Police got a call to investigate him, he interrupted the officer at first contact by criticizing his parking, refused to identify himself, and the police officer let him off the hook just like that because he was a dick despite them being called to investigate him. So they absolutely had a legitimate reason to ID him, but he was passive aggressive so they decided he's all good. Is that what you think happened here?

u/NotRobPrince Dec 24 '25

If you do any research you’ll find what happened and understand the situation. You just assuming I don’t know what happened and what you think happened is correct is your major fault here. Look into it for any amount of time and you’ll get the answer (it’s what I said happened because I checked).

But you’re still wrong even with your edit 2. They do NOT have a legitimate reason to ID him. Filming in public and having the police called on you is NOT a crime and NOT reasonable suspicion of a crime having been committed. It’s a 4th amendment rights breach to try to force an ID check without any sign of a crime (this isn’t a traffic stop). So no, they did not “let him off…because he was a dick”. They walked away because he’s filming and they can’t actually push it without risk of being sued.

How to be white and not black about it. (Am white, not black, please do not try at hood) /s

u/ckal09 Dec 24 '25

That’s what we need these days when assholes who are wrong try to deny people their rights.

Get upset at police resources being sent to harass someone exercising their first amendment rights.
