A practical understanding of "reasonable suspicion" & "probable cause".

Don't know much about this guy but in this video he is 100% spot on! He does a wonderful job on this and it's well worth a look. I watched another video of his and he doesn't buy into the idea of Christians being under attack in the US, suggesting organizations use the idea of Christians being repressed to whip folks into a frenzy and to drive up revenues with wild sensationalism. So he is pretty reasonable on at least two issues. He is probably a libertarian when it comes to taxes and could be way off and a nut job on some other issues but on this issue he is spot on.

Officer, am I free to leave?

Oh, so our current interaction is not a consensual encounter. Then what is the basis of your reasonable suspicion?

Good knowledge for everyone to have (independent of the political views of the person presenting it).

Thanks again, Q1818.

rights. When they encounter people who know their rights and have cameras rolling, the smart cops leave. This guy is just so used to doing what he wants he did his usual on camera!
