You're saying that we're being stopped because of uh smuggling activity. The dentist is going to let you know right now. No, they're not smuggling. They're on the way to the dentist. >> Okay. I don't I don't understand how that's relevant. >> Okay. Then you do not know how to do an investigation properly. Are you Are we under arrest? >> This is called an investigation. >> Are we under arrest? Are we free to go? >> No, it's called an in >> Wait, are we under Are we detained? >> That's Yes, you are detained. >> You're legally detaining us under the threat of arrest? >> No, it's called an investigation. >> Are under the threat of arrest? Are you going to detain us? going to argue. >> Okay, then never mind. >> The encounter begins with a driver asserting their right to travel without unjust interference, emphasizing their journey to a dentist appointment and interest in a nearby campground. The driver challenges the Border Patrol stop, questioning the validity of their suspicion based on a U-turn and vague claims of alien smuggling. By showing their ID, but refusing to hand it over without cause, the driver stands firm, highlighting that mere proximity to a border does not justify detention. This bold stance sets the tone for resisting overreach. >> No, I'll let you look back there, though. >> Okay. >> All right. So, this is Agent Walsh from the IC and you're being recorded as well. >> Okay. >> All right. Listen. So, the reason why we're stopping you is because you did U-turns and there's a there's a known alien out in the area. >> Okay. >> So, your your vehicle was driving near? >> Yeah, we're exploring. >> That's why >> we're going we're traveling. We're on the way to a dentist appointment right now, but we're going this way and then we're going to stop at the casino up the road. We saw a sign for a campground. So, we're looking for potential campgrounds. If you put your look back there, we are campers. We have stuff back there, okay? Where we can pop a tent, all that stuff. So that's the explanation for that. >> Okay. >> And that's the end of conversation. >> That's fine. So I just need to see some ID. >> I'm not going to show you ID. I'll show it to you, but I'm not giving it to you. >> I need to see your ID. >> I'll show it to you. >> Sir, playing the games isn't going to >> I'm not playing games. I'm exercising my rights. >> Right. And and I'd love for you on your way to camp. [Music] >> That's it. >> Sir, we're going to stay here until I can extract you from the vehicle. an ID if you do not show me your ID. >> I just showed you my ID. >> If you cooperate with >> I'm not going to cooperate because I'm not doing anything wrong. >> So get your supervisor here now. Please call your supervisor. >> There isn't one. I am the supervisor. >> Here's it again. >> I need a >> You're not going to have it. I do not consent to any seizures, anything like that. >> Not a seizure. That's a >> I'm not So I'm exercising. Okay. At this point, I'm going to remain silent and exercise all my rights. >> I'm going to get a K9 out here. The stop's going to turn. >> You do what you got to do. You do what you got to do. >> I need you to turn your vehicle down. >> No, I don't have No, >> just let you know what's going on. I'm waiting for a can to come out. >> No, you can say what you Listen. Hey, praise the Lord. Do all that. Um, we're going to remain silent. We haven't done anything wrong and um you're risky impeding on our way to get to the dentist. You're going to make me late. I've had surgery um over 2 years now of surgery. >> I understand, sir. for that. >> We're going to remain silent and then that's it. >> But but can you understand? >> We exercising our right to remain silent. Thank you. Have a nice day. >> So if you have a dentist appointment, it probably wasn't the best decision to be out in the middle of nowhere. >> No, that's We have the right to travel anywhere we want to travel. >> You do. You're absolutely right. You do. And I actually have the right and authority to stop you. >> And you did. And I told you where we're going. We're not suspicious. suspicion. >> So, you're continuing to to uh you know, your suspicions are not a crime, >> right? But it's enough to >> Okay. Well, there's not a crime committed here at all. >> Well, actually, we just got we just got an alien load. >> Well, we're not aliens. >> Smugglers, right? But there >> and we're not smugglers. >> I'm not going to explain the details for >> Okay, you don't have to. I'm just letting you know. I do not We do not match your description. So, therefore, you are impeding in our travel. >> You mean understand that arguing is not helping. >> I'm not arguing you with you. So, I'm going to exercise every right that I have as an American citizen. >> The problem is is that some of what you're saying is misinformed. >> No, it's not. You can change whatever language you like, but this is what it is. >> But that's but that's fine because we're just going to wait for a K9 come here. We can >> go ahead. What's the K9 going to do? There's nobody in my car. You saw the windows. Look it. There's nobody back there. It's just us two. There's nothing illegal in the vehicle. [Music] Every single thing in this vehicle we have the legal right to possess. [Music] So, you're going to false flag the K-9 to give you probable cause to break our windows and pull us out of this vehicle? That That's what we see every day. You're doing this to American citizens. Why? [Music] >> We already know you tip off the dogs. [Music] >> No, she's not gonna ID either. >> She's not gonna ID either. and I'm her husband and I'm speaking. She is not going to ID either. [Music] This is crazy. You guys are crazy. You guys are Nazis. Straight up Nazis. You racial profiled us and pulled us over for no reason. We did no illegal infractions, no traffic infractions, and you pulled us over. We've already told you we're not illegal. Now, are we are you are you are we under arrest? >> This is called an investigation. >> Are we under arrest or are we free to go? >> No, it's called an invest. >> Wait, are we under are we detained? >> That's Yes, you are detained. >> You're legally detaining us under the threat of arrest? >> No, it's called an investigation. >> Under the threat of arrest, are you going to detain us? >> I'm not going to argue. >> Okay, then never mind. >> The repeat of of some YouTube video. >> We're not watching YouTube. We're exercising our rights. We're not doing YouTube. >> This is a detention. >> So, are you illegally detaining us? Yes, you are. illegal detaining American citizens that have already declared their their st their uh citizenship >> investigated detention. >> Okay. Well, why is a dog What does a dog have to do with our citizen status? >> Huh? >> Does it smell if I if I'm illegal? Does it smell if I'm from a different country? >> No. It It's called reasonable suspicion. >> So, you're going to false flag the dog to get a a reasonable to Yes, you are. Yes, you guys do. You did. Come on, man. We have dogs, too. All right. We have German Shepherds. We know the rules here, okay? And that's what you're going to do. >> Your German Shepherds have >> Listen, hold on, man. You're full. You are so full of it and trying to get into our vehicle that it's nuts. We are American citizens. You are border patrol. We didn't do any traffic infractions. I'm going to the dentist and you're making me late. We stopped by cuz we saw a campground thing and we want cuz we like camping. >> Technically, you did a U-turn over >> I can do as many. No, I turned into here and I looked around and there was no vehicles within 100 yards of me. infraction. However, that is not my deal. That's that's law enforcement's deal. We have that on camera. So, I mean, I I could call >> We have it on camera, too. We can have it on We have it on camera, too. We safely proceeded off the road. >> That is not what I'm concerned with. What I'm concerned with was your activity in relation to a smuggling event that just happened. >> We are not taking place in any of that. And I'm letting you know that right now. If you want to call, I'll tell you what I will do for you to help you. >> That's what's called >> Here's what I'll do to help you. No, here's what I'll do to help you. I will give you the number to the Tory Delmare dentistry and you can ask them if they're expecting me and my wife because they know both of us. Okay. So, how's that? >> What is that? >> That would end your investigation completely. >> Your dentist appointment has nothing that's where we're going. >> Why you're being stopped? >> You're saying that we're being stopped because of uh smuggling activity. The dentist is going to let you know right now. No, they're not smuggling. They're on the way to the dentist. >> Okay. I don't I don't understand how that's relevant. >> Okay. and you do not know how to do an investigation properly. >> As the situation escalates, the driver invokes their right to remain silent, refusing to engage further with Agent Walsh's demands. The Fifth Amendment ensures that no person shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself. The driver's repeated assertion of silence frustrates the agents attempts to elicit incriminating responses, showcasing a clear understanding of constitutional protections. By calmly but firmly refusing to cooperate beyond showing ID, the driver demonstrates that knowledge of one's rights can shift the power dynamic. This moment underscores the importance of standing resolute against pressure tactics. >> Stop has nothing to do with your dentist. >> Yes, it does. >> I just told you that's where we're going. We're not doing smuggling. We're going to the dentist. Okay. All of my life, 50 years I've been here, I've never been harassed by Border Patrol on this side of the border like this. This is outrageous. >> Well, I'm your new your uh your opinion at this >> It's not an opinion. It's a fact. >> No, it isn't. >> It's a fact. It's a fact. And no matter what your dog does, I'm letting you know we do not consent to any searches or seizures at all. This is ridiculous. I showed you my driver's license. What else do you want? It's my my cannot should be here in about a minute or I'll put you back on. >> What is your name and your badge number? >> Oscar 29. >> And and the person behind you. >> Oscar 29. >> What's your name and badge number, sir? >> My badge number >> over here. Ask him what his name and badge number is. >> Sir, what's your name and badge number? >> Badge number is Oscar 172. >> Oscar 172. Oh, >> your name and badge number, please. Name and badge number. >> My name's Gonzalez. Last name Gonzalez. >> No badge number. >> We don't have >> ID. ID. >> I don't have my ID. >> So, you just got here, huh? All right. >> Gonzalez. >> You know this is wrong. We are American citizens and we're being harassed. Your dog does not tell if we're American or not. Waiting for a canine is you're in violating our our rights as American citizens. >> Hey, sir. How's it going? I'm US patrol agent uh Michael Suadis. I'm the canine handler for the Border Patrol station here in Boulevard. >> So, your dogs going to tell us if we're legal citizens or not? >> No, dogs can't talk though. >> Okay. So, then what's the deal here? Because we don't have anything illegal. >> Consent to uh >> I do not consent to any searches or seizures. >> As a uh >> and I'm letting you know as an American citizen, we do not consent to anything. Okay? You're going to tip off your dog just to get probable cause. It's a it's a gimmick. We all know about that. >> Formality. We don't need your consent. >> Well, I'm not Well, you don't have consent. >> So, my dog, he's able to detect marijuana and that's not okay. Well, check this out. Marijuana is not marijuana. >> Yeah. And we're in California. >> Okay. But we're in California and we recognize California rules. >> We're a federal agency. >> We We don't comply with federal agencies. Sorry. >> Um, >> so you guys do what you got to do. You're viol We're going to be remain silent. We do not consent to anything. So, you know, marijuana is not illegal in the state of California. >> It is. >> The driver questions the legality of their detention, demanding to know if they are under arrest or free to go, exposing the agents vague investigative detention claim. According to the Supreme Court in Terry versus Ohio, 1968, an officer may conduct a brief investigatory stop when the officer has a reasonable suspicion supported by articulable facts that criminal activity may be a foot. The driver argues that no specific evidence ties them to smuggling, only a U-turn and proximity to a border area, which fails to meet the threshold for reasonable suspicion. Their insistence on clarity forces the agent to reveal the weak basis for the stop, empowering others to question similar overreaches. >> So whatever your dog says, it's false. I'm letting you know now. And that's that. So we're done talking. You guys continue with whatever you're going to do to violate our rights. Thank you. >> To to to not consent to >> We don't consent. Okay. So that's it. I told you we don't consent. >> And it's noted on the body cam. >> And it's noted on our camera, too. Okay. So no, you don't have to tell me anything. You guys do what you guys are going to do what you're going to do at the end of the day no matter what. >> We already told I don't care. >> I'll be right. >> All right, sir. I listed those orders already. If my dog alerts to the vehicle, that gives us probable cause to take you guys out the vehicle and search the vehicle. >> We don't consent. >> You know, >> we don't consent. We don't consent. We don't consent to any of that. >> Oh, and it's loaded. So, federal law does not give you any any validation over us. Supremacy clause in the constitution. >> Not in this traffic, not in this stuff you got going on here. You're doing a you guys are border patrol. >> Still considered contrament. >> It too bad. Too damn bad. You're not going to tell us how to live when we have a legal right as California citizens to possess any kind of bad stuff. Whether it's CBD, uh, whatever it is, it doesn't matter. We have the legal rights and we will not allow you to come in as Nazi federal government and trample those rights because you think it's okay. Your ideas do not trample every single person's ideas. Okay? We have the right to free think. And we're not YouTubers. You just violated two normal people on American citizens on the way to the dentist scouting the land. Now we're scared to even travel in our own country. This is crazy. Oh man. >> So now you're scratching up our car. >> If there's any damage, we can give you >> No, you're going to give us a check. I guarantee that. And it's going to be a lot bigger than the scratches. Tell me. Sir, you guys ever smoke marijuana in the car? >> That's none of your business. >> All right. Well, my dog positive. >> That's none of your business. I don't care. >> That is probably what causes her severity. >> So, are you going to tell us to get out under the threat of arrest? >> We have We >> We're not getting out unless you tell us you're going to arrest us. >> So, right now, you are being detained. >> Okay. So, we're not going to comply with anything unless you say right now unless we do so. >> Now, you are detained to conduct our investigation. >> Go ahead and do what you got to do. Hurry up. >> 2139. >> All right, sir. Listen, >> I'm trying to be as patient with you guys. You can be as patient as you want. I would love to get you on your way. >> Um, >> your breath smells. The dog alert. That's interesting. >> The dog alerted on your vehicle. >> I don't care. >> There's nothing illegal in this vehicle. >> When agent Suarez arrives with a K9 unit, the driver accuses the Border Patrol of using the dog to fabricate probable cause, refusing consent to any search. The Supreme Court in Illinois versus Cabal 2005 holds that a seizure that is justified solely by the interest in issuing a warning ticket to the driver can become unlawful if it is prolonged beyond the time reasonably required to complete that mission. The driver's outspoken distrust of the K9 process, citing knowledge of tipping tactics, challenges the legitimacy of the search by vocalizing their non-conent and referencing California's marijuana laws. They exposed the federal overreach in a state where personal use is legal, reinforcing their stand against intimidation. >> That might be the case with a dog alert. >> I don't care. I don't I don't listen to dogs. >> We need you to get out of the vehicle. So, >> okay. Is it going to be under the threat of arrest? >> If there's contraband, yes. >> No. I'm telling you right now, if we don't get out, are you going to arrest us and break our windows? >> Yes or no? It's a simple question because if you're going to threaten me to cuz if you're going to threaten me and my wife with arrest, then we're going to turn off this car, get out, and we're going to call the sheriff's. >> Yeah, you can get out if you want to do that. >> No, I don't want to. I want you to leave us alone so I can get to the dentist. >> Right. So, in order for you to do that, >> we're not Okay, so we're not going to do anything unless you threaten to arrest us. >> Doesn't mean that you consent to anything. >> I am not consenting or cooperating with you at all. >> And I'm agreeing. >> Okay. Well, okay. Well, that's that. Doesn't mean you have to consent. >> Okay, we're not. End the conversation then. >> But this is an investigative detention. The dog alerted. >> I don't care what your dog alerted to. We don't have anything illegal in the vehicle. >> That might that very well may be the case. >> It is the case. It's a fact. >> But that doesn't change the fact that you get out of the vehicle. >> We're not going to unless you threaten to arrest us or break our window. >> You're going to you're going to be arrested. >> So you're threatening to arrest us. >> No, you're going to be arrested if you won't get out of the vehicle. >> That's what I'm saying. If unless we get out, you're going to arrest us. >> Correct. >> Okay. So, let's get out. >> Get out. Then this will continue to be an investigative detention. If we find nothing, you'll go on your vehicle and be on your way. >> There's nothing for you. No. So, I'm just making sure that we don't I'm I'm letting you know as our rights as citizens, we do not want to get out. We want to go on the way. But if you're going to threaten to break our window and arrest us, then I have no option but to turn off my car and get out. So, what's it going to be? >> Yes. You're going to be arrested if >> Okay. So, we're getting out and we're going to open the doors and you guys do what you got to do. >> You're welcome. >> Recording and don't stop. Just over here. Record them. I'll open that for you. I got it right here. Go ahead. Go ahead in the back. Open up. Red cooler. Red cooler. [Music] >> Camping gear. [Music] >> No, it's not. This is violation of citizens rights. Okay. Whether you see it or not, it is. It is. Next thing you know, we're going to have checkpoints everywhere. And it's going to go for you guys as well. Okay. ID every single freeway under the guise of safety. For what? Huh? >> That's none of your business. But for what? To prove a point? Huh? To do an epic cleansing? Huh? You're messing with good people. [Music] that you're not you're not allowed to touch that. You need to put that back where you found it. >> All right. >> All right. So, first >> So, there's a small amount of what I would consider >> That's okay. It's illegal. >> Okay. Listen, can I just explain? >> No, you cannot. Just do what you got to do in this. >> That's exactly what I'm doing. >> Put your hands from your pockets, please. >> Yeah. So, a small amount of personal use marijuana. >> I'm not inclined to think that there's anything more than that. My officer is doing the rest of the search. The K9 officer, and this is perview here, I'm going to explain something to you. >> Just do what you got to do. >> Look, normally, >> there's not going to be no This is not going to be the new normal. So, you can you're not Don't waste your breath. This will never be the new normal. All right? Not for us or for any anybody else that we know of and there's millions of us. >> Okay, duly noted. So, thank you for your speech. I appreciate it. >> It's not a See how you are. You're a cocky son of a [ __ ] >> Normally, Normally, we could seize this personal use marijuana. I could actually write you a ticket. >> Take it. I don't care. >> I'm trying to explain something to you. Normally, we would we could seize this. Just save it, Conrad. >> We could se seize this marijuana and we could take your vehicle back to the station and put you guys >> It just builds our case bigger >> and put you in the system. >> It just builds our case, >> write you a magistrate ticket, in which case you would get a fine or you'd have to show up in court. >> Do what you have to do. >> However, however, in light of the circumstances, >> I don't see there being a whole lot of value in me ruining your day. Like you said, you have pass that sir. You already Conrad. >> Oh my goodness. I can't in light of In light of you having a small amount of personal use. So long as the rest of the search is clear. >> This is ridiculous. >> I'm going to go ahead and let you off with a warning. Once they complete it, that's all we find. >> Well, apparently, you know, he owns my stuff now. He's he's uh taking it. >> That's sad. >> This is really sad, guys. I I I would agree. It is that >> you're absolutely right. There's there's better ways. There's a lot better ways to do this and you guys have failed miserably today. >> Stay right there. Please don't get back in the vehicle. Yes, sir. >> Said go ahead. >> Hey, are they good? Yeah. Go back. Good. Suarez. Suarez. What's the What's the degrees right now? Temperature about 90 something. >> Yeah, it's fine. >> You got my wife out here, >> huh? >> Good. >> Real good, guys. Real good. Good job, guys. >> Yeah. >> All right, sir. >> I'm not here. Said you can go yet. >> Listen, I'm not about for big speeches, >> but I don't want to hear this with you. I don't want to hear it. >> Had you just cooperated, I would have to be the new normal. could have. >> This will not be the new normal. How's that? And I will make sure we go to the board meetings. Okay. This will be your last stance here. You got that, guys? Can I go now? >> Yes, sir. >> All right. >> Have a nice day. >> You mess with the wrong guy. >> I don't Then we'll do another taste. >> Yep. I can't believe that. >> Despite the discovery of a small amount of marijuana, the driver maintains that their rights as California citizens are being violated, refusing to accept the agents actions as normal. The California Compassionate Use Act of 1996, Proposition 25, legalizes marijuana for personal use, stating section in 357, shall not apply to a patient who possesses or cultivate marijuana for the personal medical purposes of the patient. The driver's defiance, coupled with their promise to attend board meetings and challenge such practices, transforms the encounter into a broader call for accountability. By documenting the interaction and vowing to fight back, they inspire others to resist unchecked authority and protect their freedoms. Like and subscribe for more police cam stories.
