There's other people around here. >> Charge me. >> I'm not charging you right now. I'm investigating it. >> Charge me.

He flipped off a group of Santa Fe officers at a gas station, and instead of ignoring it, a sergeant jumped into an unmarked truck, pulled behind him, and blocked him in. The officer immediately claimed he was detained and started fishing for disorderly conduct, insisting kids being nearby somehow turned a middle finger into a crime. What followed was a supervisor scrambling to Google the very statute he was trying to enforce, while the man refused illegal ID demand and challenged the lack of reasonable suspicion. Watch how this so-called top cop exposed his own ignorance trying to turn protected speech into a charge that would never stick. So this is infringing upon my first amendment rights. I flipped him off. He pulls his truck behind me and now he says I'm detained. Do not answer anything that guy asks you. Okay. We're fine. We're going to be okay. He's just being >> Can I get a supervisor? >> I have a supervisor. >> Can I get your supervisor? >> I'm the top cop working right now. >> And you don't know that flipping off cops is a first amendment protected activity. >> Are you there's other people around here? >> Charge me. >> I'm not charging you right now. I'm investigating it. charge me. What's there to investigate? >> I'm not going to answer any questions. >> Okay? >> If you saw me or you think you saw me do something, then >> I'm not trying to push it that way. I can ask for your driver's license and take you for good stolen identity if you don't want to pull it over. You have a kid here. We're not trying to do all that. More so, I just want to have a conversation with you. >> You have to have reasonable suspicion of a crime in order to demand my ID. And then >> I can read you the uh statute for condom. Pull it up. >> I know what it is. What is it? >> I'm not going to tell you. It's your job. >> Cuz you don't know it. >> Mhm. Heat. Heat. I want to read it verbatim for you. Disorderly conduct and guide you engaging in violent abuse in decent, profane, boisterous, unreasonably, loud, or otherwise >> disorderly conduct which tends to disturb the peace. One can articulate that is flipping off in the general vicinity of a public area. There's kids here. It's a gas station. So, if you go by the police station and I'm here parked and it's just me and you flip me off, That's one thing. But >> you know for a fact that charge will not stick. This is contempt of cop right now. >> It's not contempt of cop. >> It's contempt of cop. >> We only need probable cause to investigate something. Ask your driver's license. You know suspicion. Not probable cause. Reasonable suspicion is a lower standard. >> It is lower standard. So I have reasonable suspicion to investigate this right now. You agree that right? >> No I don't. >> You don't. >> I don't. >> Well I'm not going to push it that way. I just want to have a conversation with you. I'll get >> I have zero in sorry for >> you people my child his brother. So >> guys, for whatever happened to your family, >> you want to get me for saying to you cuz I mean >> just have a conversation with you, sir. >> I'm not interested. >> I'm sorry Hill. I hope you have a good rest of your day. Okay. I'm sorry for whatever happened with your family in the past. We're not all the same. Okay. >> What's your name, sir? >> Uh 75. >> Who's your direct supervisor if I was file complaint? >> Lieutenant Michael Muriel. >> I know. >> All right. Thank you. Have a great day. >> Have a great day, sir. >> This was never about public safety. It was about ego. A supervising sergeant tried to stretch disorderly conduct into something it clearly was not. Blocked a car over a gesture and then had to look up the law mid detention. No charge, no citation. Just another example of authority tested and exposed when someone actually knows their rights.
