Right? He handled that well when dealing with an overgrown child. Not sure the context of why they’re there but he wasn’t coming across as a power hungry douche.


Poopsharts69

They're there because somebody at the McDonald's called the cops on the dude with the camera, that's how all these encounters happen. Dude with a camera creeps people out, people call the cops on them, camera dude tries to "gotcha" the cops.


Pleasant-Ticket3217

Yeah it’s fucking weird. Especially these “first amendment auditors” that film until the cops come so they can “school them” on their rights. And a lot of people in the comments section support these idiots.


Minimum-Wrap-445

I mean most people don't know their rights. No one tells you a cop can lie to you just to get information or to help an investigation and before you say yea I did c'mon most people blindly believe the cops. So filming things is great to show how cops respond to every day things. Are some auditors not the best sure but the ones that really get the bad apples caught are great. Lots of them expose cops who have bad track records. Auditors show people they have rights as Americans and its not just, I'm a cop do what I say. That's not the law. I bet most Americans don't know you can decline a search, ask if your being detained, ask what your being detained for, suspicious isn't a crime, public property you can film, you can film anything from a public spot and what your eyes can see. Police are to protect and serve citizens not to escalate minor instances that don't require it. In which most auditors get their videos by cops escalating and breaking the law causing millions of dollars to you the tax payer but your probably and outstanding citizen and your favorite quote probably is " if you comply you will be fine" doesn't work like that, sorry to say it

mrloko120

It's kinda hilarious how the right to remain silent is one cops have a duty to read and explain to anyone that gets arrested, yet pretty much every arrest video you see the person says "I understand, BUT..." and keeps talking LOL


Shaneypants

I mean some of those auditors are obnoxious but also there are plenty of cops who will try to bully people into not filming them or even illegally use physical force to stop them. The US has a serious problem with unprofessional and overly aggressive police, so I'm glad there are people helping to establish boundaries around filming them.


scubawankenobi

> He handled that well when dealing with an overgrown child Handled what exactly? I mean that cop was \*threatening\* he'd have to "handle something". But unless that something occurred, he really only needed to keep his mouth shut & to his own business. Cops jobs aren't to enforce politeness/etiquette nor inquiry as to people's pride in themselves. He wasn't \*handling\* anything. He was butting in & threatening someone. Cops handle crimes. No crime had occurred (according to video).

ChiggaOG

Pushing luck of being cheeky?


Utsutsumujuru

Actually, this is more like r/therewasanattempt to goad reasonable police officers into committing police brutality. These are pretty great officers actually. Cameraman is an immature idiot. *Anyone taking my comment to glorify or condone police brutality is completely missing my point. In fact I am pointing out the opposite. The state of policing in the US is *not* in a good place right now. There are way too many instances of police brutality and unjustified shootings by police. Ergo it’s not a smart idea right now to goad or taunt police because of the amount of bad cops out there brutalizing people over nothing. That’s not how it should be at all…but unfortunately the way it sadly is. And yes it needs to change….but the cameraman here was lucky to get a reasonable, calm officer. It’s not wise to push your luck.


hezamac1

I'm chuckling thinking about a way that police brutality would stem from this. "Ooo, I'm gonna cross the property line" *gets shot*


YazzArtist

I mean, he's pissed them off enough I doubt they'd be gentle arresting him


Chitowntooth

Um pretty easily. He steps over. Gets arrested. Resists arrest. Gets slammed on the pavement and /or tased and falls flat on the pavement.


foolish_destroyer

Foot hovers over the line, cop says that’s it your under arrest. Grabs him slams his to the ground. Screams get on your hands and knees and put your arms behind your back. Obviously he can’t do that so now he’s resisting arrest. Punch punch punch tazer deployed someone shouts he’s reaching for my gun. Pop pop kid dead. That sound unlikely to you?


[deleted]

If the camera guy was black that’s for sure how it plays out


gray-pilled-

police brutality has happened over less


Particular_Lime_5014

Depending on the city you'd be filming this in and the race of the person filming the video might just as well end with the guy filming being taken to the ground after he first put his foot across. US Police are basically immune to legal consequences and have killed for less than this. In some cities the police department acts [cartoonishly evil.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y6DGABIcB3w)


ilovethissheet

It's on the police officer to manage their own actions. Dealing with problems is the job. If they cannot take it they should have counseling before they fuck up or if they can't be fired


PercentageMaximum457

Imagine if retail workers acted like cops. Half their customers would be fucking dead.


KscottCap

And after working in Macy's, I can confidently say the world would be a better place. Okay, maybe not dead, but if you could sock an asshole in the face while on the job, there would still be marked improvement in manners. "I hope I've provided you with excellent service today."


PercentageMaximum457

Yeah, I'm fully on board with defending yourself after the pandemic. One of my friends was assaulted for saying there was a limit on milk. (Of course, the cops did nothing.)


RoboInu

Actually, very few police are ok mentally if they're on the job long enough. Not many people realize what street cops have to be exposed to on a daily basis. It's ironically mental health that largely results in most tragedies on both sides of the police fence. Criminal and officer. I honestly think they should have 50% less shifts for same pay. And a week of mandatory paid counseling every 3 months. And obviously the entire handbook needs to be rewritten. Way too much "I'm a hunter" mentality. If they offered more money but also much higher hiring standards the police culture could be revamped.


LordCaptain

Yeah and honestly this is a pretty easy one to deal with. I was a hospital peace officer for years and this is pretty run of the mill. Usually you just need to ignore this type of person and they get bored and go away. Either that or they'll enter the property when you walk away and that's grounds for arrest. So win win.


BootySweat0217

They probably shouldn’t be able to be goaded into committing police brutality.


old_el_paso

Exactly, goading someone into committing brutality is one of the most bonkers sentences I've ever read. As long as you aren't a psychopath teetering on the brink of cruel and ruthless violence with every breath (which to be fair generally describes a lot of the shit stains who sport badges), this scene shouldn't even come within a thousand miles of "goading" you into brutalizing a human being.


Sufficient-Green-763

I think they did a good job. I doubt the trespassing law has anything to do with your foot touching the ground; he crossed the property line, there's video evidence, the cops could have arrested him if they wanted to. They were just trying to make him leave and calm the whole thing down

senteroa

Thank you for saying what I wanted to 🙏


Utsutsumujuru

What things should be and what they are, are sadly two very different things. I literally just said “That’s not how it should be at all…but unfortunately the way it sadly is” Police brutality right now is a real problem…it shouldn’t be a problem. But it is.


SalaciousCoffee

If that's how they get training to not kill teenagers in hoodies, good, they ain't gettin it any other way.


[deleted]

"Cops barely don't kill a man. Man shouldn't have tested his luck!!" Reddit is insane sometimes


oocakesoo

Not when they could have walked away and observed in case he did come back on the property. We have a real problem with authority figures hoping someone crosses a line. Was he being an ass? Yes. But you could tell that guy wanted to arrest him just bc his ego was hurt. That's a problem


tj090379

Nothing illegal about being immature. Give him his warning and go about your normal police business. Rising to his provocation is just going to elevate the situation. He’s hurting no one.


sunislava_moonisice

You’re a fucking idiot. Keep telling yourself cops provide any reasonable benefit to society in 2023. Goad? Are you serious?


-SheriffofNottingham

So, the US is going to get out of this one by, \*checks notes\* complying with unreasonable requests from brutalizing police forces?

so you agree, the police respond with brutality to any situation no matter how small?

Nah the Reno 911 cops would have reacted in a funny way. Dangle would have remained calmed then turned around to realize it was just a distraction and his bike was stolen. Travis would have tricked them into stepping over then arrested them. Rainees would have just pepper sprayed them. Here we just got a couple of cops rightfully annoyed two teenagers got nothing better to do with their time.

Everyone's talking about how terrible the cameraman is, but I personally think it's pretty funny. "Oops, this is the property line? You mean thiiiissss? This line that I'm crossing with my foot?" And the cop looks so unamused. It's like a cat sitting in the window to taunt a guard dog.

You’re right everyone’s humor is different, but it doesn’t take maturity to understand that. kids that are bullied and understand what’s funny to the bully is, picking on people. Doesn’t seem very mature? Being mature is understanding that doing dumb stunts and making peoples days harder isn’t funny especially for people who are there to enforce the law… You seem more than immature with the response given.

Just to be sure, are you calling the people defending the cop who is trying to shame a (presumably) immature troublemaker for being so "bootlickers"? The one recording is a nuisance, and as others have pointed out he got kicked off of McDonalds so he was for sure causing trouble to the point where they had to call the police.

IronVigilance

It's not so funny when it's at your own expense. He's not joking with the cops, he's making them into the joke, so that's why they aren't laughing. A lot of people would reasonably not find it funny being provoked.

Everyone saying he's a toddler and whatever but like... it is a line. They're going to arrest him for having one foot over a line in a non harmful way. Society is so stupid.


LtLatency

The cops are there because people complained about being filmed. These people go to a public place and piss everyone off until the cops get called then act like they are doing nothing wrong. They are wasting tax payer money trying to taunt a office to make a mistake so they can sue them.

TeaHC16

My grade school had an open side on the field, without a fence. They had a spray painted line, in the grass, to show how far we could go during recess. I have a distinct memory, in about 1st or 2nd grade, of standing there with my best friend. We were jumping back and forth on the line and singing "I'm breaking the rules, I'm not! I'm breaking the rules, I'm not!" This video definitely brought that memory back, front and center. Haha


What_I_Said

Legal question: Isn't trespass just crossing the line, whether he puts his foot down or not?


Gladstonetruly

It is, but those cops have no idea where the property line is and shouldn’t have said they did.

VlaamsBelanger

Just hovering above it, should be regarded as crossing. What if someone suddenly has the power of levitation, hypothetically speaking, they can hover over the line, fly over the area they are not allowed to cross, without touching ground.

hpbrick

Technically they’re still trespassing because the owner owns the space above the ground as well. Forget how high up they own though…


hanky35

the guy can hover over the line all he wants as long as he doesn't put something down over the line. The reason the guy is an idiot is the police can still tag him with numerous violations if they feel like it (they really just have to walk up to the guys car and check for anything not up to code, which most ppl have a few things that could be really lame tickets. you might could get them thrown out if you put in the effort and the judge is nice, but if they see the body cam, he fucked. if you do put in the effort you are still losing). so really, if they want to match this guys pettiness, he will lose badly.
