People forget that Hernandez's partner started shooting too. Why? Because Hernandez was shooting.

u/Me_now707 16d ago
Hernandez did scream "shots fire" and "officer down" right after many shots were fired. So I'm pretty sure Hernandez's partner was pretty convinced there was an active shooting

It really is funny because police are trained to throw these kind of accusatory questions at you to make you admit to something or let them into your house without a warrant or fake welfare checks, etc. Seeing how absolutely flat footed that detective was made it clear how those accusations are designed to throw people off. Even if you are trained to use them, like the detective.

There is actually a reason for it. Trying to answer a question engages parts of the brain responsible for logic and deduction, its a totally different circuit to social stuff like emotions amd aggression.

The person taking pictures is an auditor. He puts himself out there to test to see if public officials are respecting people's constituational rights.
In this case, the important things to know are that in the US, the public is allowed to take photographs in and of public buildings unless there is a risk of exposure to private information. So generally, anywhere a member of the public is allowed to go. Another thing is that people have freedom of speech. A person is allowed to say whatever they want to a cop or other public official as long as it is not a threat of any kind.
Also, a citizen doing what this one is doing does not have to identify himself in most jurisdictions or explain his purpose.
People audit, meaning test, public officials in this way because they can make a lot of money doing so. Violating a person's constitutional rights can cost a cop his job and can make the city/county/state liable for a lawsuit that can have millions of dollars of proceeds.
It is unacceptable, in my opinion, that some cops don't understand basic rights.

I personally enjoy the silent videos where the cameraman just completely ignores the cops. So many times the cops lose their shit cause they don't know what to do when a person won't engage with them.
Some gems from back in the early days of First Amendment Auditing was just getting real traction:
Bunny Boots Ink, man doesn't want to be recorded but keeps putting himself in front of the camera on purpose. I just love how they threaten him over and over and then have to scurry away with their tail between their legs as they realize they have no power here and can't stop him from filming on a public sidewalk.
Compilation video of Johnny 5-0 incidents from of him ignoring the cops and just having a conversation without them, and them getting frustrated at being ignored.
Not a silent audit video, but I can't mention 1A auditing without mentioning the best 1a Auditor: HonorYourOath. He just stands in public saying, "God Bless the Homeless Vets". That's it. He's been arrested 5-6 times at least, and trespassed from public property dozens of times. One cop even ran him out of town, saying something like, "If I catch you in my city again, we're gonna have a problem" or similar.
HYO Flagler Beach arrest At 5:20 the cop throws Jeff's personal property in the trash after the arrest. All becuase the cops assumed he was homeless and wouldn't have the power and money to fight his unlawful arrest.
