That isn't fighting The Man, that right there is called being a difficult asshole for no reason other than to be a difficult asshole.  |
Just doing her job. You know who else were
just doing their jobs, right?
He doesn't need a point - he should not be forced to carry his papers and show them on demand to federal agents.
As you can see from the outcome of the video, he played it well and was eventually allowed to leave. He was never detained, and therefore didn't need to answer any questions.
Her 'simple' one question would have undoubtedly led to more. For instance:
Quote:
cop : Are you a citizen of the United States?
guy : Yes, I am.
cop : And where are you headed to today?
guy : I would rather not say.
And now the cop now has probable cause to detain you. Didn't want to say where you were going, huh? You must have been headed somewhere BAD.

I'm worried that so many on here seem complacent when it comes to exercising their rights.
Avoid the police at all cost, and say as little as possible.
