cop who has ever tried to twist and turn the law in his favor and done that with zero respect just wait until you meet this next one how you doing sir he I don't want to give you a hard time or anything but I can't let you hold of that sign I'm sorry the first amendment protects my free political speech you're Live on YouTube video and audio recorded that's fine sir your sign's a little vulgar and It's upsetting people it doesn't matter you're not the Free Speech police I understand that I have a constitutionally protected right to say whatever I want I'm politically protesting Governor Larry Hogan it's my first amendment right on the right to petition my right to redress of grievances and my right to file a complaint in any manner I feel fit by the way I'm not trespassing I'm on public property I'm on a public uh cross walk I'm doing nothing wrong I got a sign that you find offensive that's not a lot where in the Maryland criminal code does it say you cannot have an offensive political sign cuz free speech is not open to your your uh interpretation and he was completely right about that freedom of speech is as objective as possible seeing as it's a part of the law but officer McKenzie needed to be reminded this man was standing outside with a vulgar sign protesting a political candidate when the police rolled up the thing is he was well within his rights to hold up the sign thanks to the freedom of spe speech the cops however had a different idea I understand we just got to call for it I understand you got to call you made your best shot I'm not leaving cuz I haven't broken any laws he okay there's a thing called disorderly conduct I can't hear you there's a thing called disorderly conduct if somebody finds your your sign and your actions to be disorderly in public okay then that is a charge and we can ask you to leave and they to do that you can get arrested uh get your commanding officer out here cuz cuz this is uh political free speech and I'm protected on the First Amendment why are you shaking so much are you are you on the inflence on anything oh now you're going that route trying to say I'm on drugs I'm asking you you're shaking like a leaf sir we're not trying to be nasty to you or anything like that it's free speech and you can't do anything about call your State's Attorney's office I talk to my lawyers every day I'm in the newspapers every State's Attorney's Office reviewed it and said you can't do anything about it's free speech you're not even supposed to be talking to me I'm not I'm not arguing I'm not arguing on that come on you're right you're right about Free Speech we have a call because people were offended by your sign but I didn't offend them they offended themselves by not liking the choice of words I have for the governor okay things weren't going particularly well but they got even worse when officer Arnold came into the mix you live around here sir I'm not making any statements other than the fact I haven't committed any crimes and you know it Hey sir I never said you committed a crime you said I was disorderly in public and I'm not no actually I didn't say that I'm engaged in constitutionally protected activity and you cannot make any law that will infringe upon it nor apply any law that infringes upon it sir all I did was tell you why I'm here I got called about your sign this guy said uh I'm disorderly I said if somebody finds your action to be disorderly then need would be disordered right no absolutely not my my free speech is not contingent upon someone else's emotions you know that I have a question for you we haven't been NY to you at all we come here to talk you he said he's going to arrest me for disorderly I didn't say that I said someone finds your actions to be disorderly and disturbing of the piece I'm sorry but they're not judge jury and executioner arrested could be could be that's all I'm saying I'm engaged in constitutionally protected activities there was an if oh you're giving me what ifs and hypotheticals now that's right all right let me explain something to you I'm engaged in constitutionally protected activity okay and I'm not out here protesting you guys are burning down your city so why are you all so personally pissed off that I don't like Governor Hogan no I'm not I'm not mad I don't like him I mean is my sign not not is it too subtle you're entitled to your opinion I'm entitled to be protected by the First Amendment wrap it around me like a big old blanket while I stand out here with my my giant Larry Hogan sign I don't like the governor I um I won't comment on that sort of stuff I'm just doing my job you understand we're here for a call for service we're not here because we want to be right oh you're here cuz you want to be you should have told him there's no crime you should have said there's there's no CME we have to come out for everything if we get a call we have to come we have to come out here that's it what was your name officer Mackenzie McKenzie yes sir Arnold B Arnold am I being detained no I'm free to go I'm free to continue protesting also we free to stand here too absolutely it's a free country I'm glad you know that make sure you recognize that when you try to charge me with disorderly conduct because you don't like the content of my free speech why are you being because I don't like it when cops try to tell me what is and is not allowed on a political sign he didn't do that he told this guy did he said that my free speech could be considered disorderly cuz someone got offended and has thin skin I'm sorry but every person on on Facebook named Karen doesn't determine my free speech rights I mean seriously I mean nasty dude you know that I I am a nasty dude you know if you if you want to get your point across if you're just a little nicer to people why would I care this is my this is my message verbatim this is right from my heart well this is my deep felt political belief it's my protected free speech and I'm going to continue to display the wrong way what's the right way be kind be kind to us we haven't been nasty to you at all this guy said he's going to arrest me for disorder to arrest you rewind the tape I said you could be if someone found your conduct to be disorderly and disturbing their peace okay that is the law you can lawyer you can you can quote the lawyer you can quote all this stuff all you want but if your protest becomes disorderly you're saying this while they're burning down cities in Wisconsin and you're saying that my sign is disorderly come on seriously you guys are out of your mind you think I'm disorderly after a lot of back and forth with the officers going back on their word and the citizen standing his ground a supervisor arrived and immediately shut down the whole thing officer McKenzie's demeanor had changed reasonably by the time she came back to talk to the man anyone can tell that the boss had put both officers in their [Music] place so if you're standing out here holding the sign I don't really have a problem with that you do cuz you stopped and told me I'm going to jail that guy did no you didn't you've been nice this guy's not been very nice you been I hav been mean to you I just said that yeah you said you're going to throw me in jail for free I'm not hearing it have a good I'm going to I'm not talking to you I'll talk to this lady un what I okay so we came out here because we had a call we have to come out for everything I understand you have your your rights freedom of speech all that this is considered a protest right you're peacefully protest correct right have I lit any cities on fire today no sir come on hear me out right so as long as you're not jumping in traffic or causing any harm to people or running with Scissors or taking candy from strangers getting in the back of a van I know whatever use that whatever use that you want to stand here and hold the sign

gun no I'm uh making sure we're 6t apart I won't look down I won't move my hands my hands are up here yeah I see your hands they're going to stay there yes sir it seems to be a trend that the Second Officer to get to the scene is always the worst of the two just as seen in the previous case the next officer who arrived simply escalated the situation by being aggressive and controlling listen I do not consent any search or seizure this is my fourth amendment right but if it excuse me if it if it makes more you more comfortable I will not resist you seizing my property from me your propert what are you talking about man my firearm on my side right now okay if it makes you if it makes you feel more comfortable I will not I'm not allowing you to do so but if you I will not at all if you decide

YouTube budy which part of that is suspicious or illegal I I'm trying to figure out what was so ah so so suspicious about what you guys were doing well that's up to you to discern and that's what we're trying to do somebody thought you guys were just hot it's somebody somebody no it's not suspicious I don't have a legal obligation to you have a legal obligation to identify yourself can you give me that statute I more than happy to look it up please do when officer Vance a superior to both of the present officers arrived things immediately took a turn for the better he asked direct questions that would either absolve or incriminate good citizen and immediately freed everyone to go about their day I'm just exercising my rights if exercising your rights makes it more if if me exercising my rights makes it more difficult for you then what's the point of you enforcing any rights you see what I'm saying so so you scream out the Amendments and all that you know we have a job to do man yes sir we just can't let did you swear and oath to defend the Constitution when you took your job was the original complain suspicious to suspicious males with a camera okay wearing all

didn't say anything to anybody okay who called this in no clue okay I was just disast where was he at when you approached they were right here okay you s another guy yeah he locked the door gu I believe this is duplex or apartment okay I'll tell you I'll I'll explain our job here done yes sir so thank you can I have your name and badge number please yeah officer B 75 thank you very much yes sir take care yep you guys have a great day talk about a man that gets the job done the same can be said for this Sergeant who arrived at a county building to put his errant subordinate officers in their place to see the um the county clerk okay so need your driver's license I don't I don't have a driver's license now what is your name Ben Ben Franklin Ben Franklin correct what's your date of birth Ben why do you need my date of birth what is your date of birth do you want to come in this building yeah I have business to conduct ma'am I I just don't see why this is not Germany I don't see why I would need to give dat of birth I need your address my address and my date of birth yes for what ma'am I don't understand do you have a supervisor I could speak with this first amendment auditor had genan to a county building in New York to challenge the status quo that is unreasonable rules put in place for personal reasons the worst part is that these rules are not backed up by the law but are rather bureaucratic and personal unsurprisingly he was proven right by every single staff member he encountered when he arrived sir please put the phone away please you're not allowed to video or I'm sorry please put it away why why can't ask can you nicer because there's a sign posted out so I bet you can't do that in here why can't I record in here here who you here to see the county clerk I'm here to see the county clerk I have business to conduct I have to do a public records request me being hurt on you okay how do I go I have that you can show us your name so we can let you in I don't have anything with my name I don't have please just stay here yeah no problem no problem ridiculous the law allows people to film at public places regardless of what personal signs are placed there however the officers here decided to take matters into their own hands and make filming a forbidden act at a county building look at your name say it or is that Broski Broad Brodsky see this is why it's more polite to tell somebody their name um so I can't enter in a public building and conduct services without showing some sort of government ID that's that sounds like sounds like Germany to me not the United States of America under who Authority County building it's a policy of the building it's a policy of the building of the county this building needs ID in order to go in can you show be the policy where is the policy I don't have it on me but that is the policy so you're enforcing a policy that you can't even show on there you're enforcing a policy you can't even show me a sign so you can take that to please please have picture ID ready to show the public this is a taxpayer funded ID I'm trying to conduct business that you don't need an ID to vote for the president of the United States but yet you need an Ida to enter in some County building that doesn't even make any sense it wasn't until the sergeant arrived that his subordinates relented on enforcing this useless rule I'm trying to conduct business I'm a journalist I'm trying to conduct business here by doing a freedom of Information Act request okay so they're saying if you show them government ID I would be able to correct that's what they're saying and that's and what I'm saying is that's unconstitutional and I understand we might have difference of opinion but the reason why I'm here today is to challenge that unconstitutional uh policy and has authorization certain parts of the building you're not allowed to go just no you're not allowed to go into into the building at all without a government issued ID all right all right I'm going to go speak to them all right thanks Sergeant appreciate it if you enjoyed this video let me know in the comment section and don't forget to
