I had an officer pull me over on my way to work for my rear tires losing traction. It was a cold day and I had intended on driving my "daily driver" buy it was unavailable. It was unintentional and I was not speeding. There was a ditch just inches from the road edge line. My car only has a few inches of ground clearance. There was no place to pull over. I decreased speed to 10-15 MPH below the speed limit and activated my right blinker in an attempt to communicate to the officer that I would pull over as soon as it was safe to do so. I drove for approximately 1/2 mile and pulled of the right of the road at my first opportunity. It appeared that the location I pulled into was just for that purpose. The officer approached my car with his handgun drawn and was shouting about me not pulling over and threatening me with felony fleeing and eluding. I explained to the officer that there was no place to pull over and that I was not going to drive into a ditch which would require a tow truck to get out of. He screamed, "You'll pull over when I say pull over!". I was driving an 800 HP Corvette and could have lost this fool in a few seconds if it was my intent to flee. It should have been obvious that I was not trying to flee, but the police are not the "best and brightest". I've seen similar cases were drivers were charged and convicted. I was legitimately concerned that this paranoid b!tch was going to shoot me and thought if I was "black" this fool would have surely shot me. Welcome the the Authoritarian States of America.
Justice Marshal was an ardent drug warrior. I can't have much respect for anyone holding that position.
How do I find a good lawyer or lawyers
Makes you consider hiring a driver. Cabbies probably don't get stopped as much.
"…they're all Karens, but we called them Yankees." I would be honored to pour a scotch for anyone who can throw around such comments. LOL
So what is the correct reply to, "Do you know how fast you were going?" Any answer, yes or no, would indicate something bad for you. If you say "Yes," and they clocked you over the speed limit, then you knowingly violated the law. If you say "No," then you weren't paying attention to your driving and were "distracted driving." If you say "I'm not answering questions," then they think you are a dick and hit you with bs citation(s).
What can one do in PA, if a judge gives you a option of either you had over your firearms or see your kids
Plain view… we look so we don’t get killed. I illuminate vehicles for weapons. Hide your drugs silly billy.
As a police officer I enjoy your videos for refreshments. They help me keep the oath. Keep them coming.
“United States Supreme Judge James Iredell Court Decision"
“That the majority shall prevail is a rule posterior to the formation of government, and results from it. It is not a rule binding upon mankind in their natural state. There, every man is independent of all laws, except those prescribed by nature. He is not bound by any institutions formed by his fellowmen without his consent.” Cruden v. Neale, 2 N.C. 338 (1796) 2 S.E. 70

AGO 1959 No. 88 – Dec 10 1959 Page#2
Attorney General John J. O'Connell Washington state
Dear Sir: [within]
“Any peace officer shall on request produce evidence of his authorization as such."(Emphasis supplied) But, inasmuch as the Washington statutes are penal in character and are in derogation of the common law they must be strictly construed. “, to the end that no citizen shall be deprived of his liberty under statutes that are malum prohibitum only.…"
As stated in 11 Am.Jur., Constitutional Law, § 329, p. 1135 wherein it is said: "The right of a citizen to travel upon the public highways and to transport his property thereon, by horse drawn carriage, wagon, or automobile, is not a mere privilege which may be permitted or prohibited at will, but a common right which he has under his right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Under this constitutional guaranty" See also, Teche Lines, Inc. v. Danforth, In Barbour v. Walker, the distinction between the right of a citizen to use the public highways for private, rather than commercial purposes is recognized: "In Ex parte Dickey (Dickey v. Davis) 76 W.Va. 576, L.R.A. 1915 F, 840, P.U.R. 1915 E, 93, 85 S.E. 781, we find this apt expression of the court: 'The right of a citizen to travel upon the highway and transport his property thereon, in the ordinary course of life and business, differs radically and obviously [[Orig. Op. Page 11]] from that of one who makes the highway his place of business and uses it for private gain, in the running of a stagecoach or omnibus. This distinction, elementary and fundamental in character, is recognized by all the authorities:…" (As to the power of the legislature to prohibit or condition special or extraordinary uses of the highway, i.e., commercial use, as it sees fit, see: ….)
RCW 46.25.050
Commercial driver's license required—Exceptions, restrictions, reciprocity.
(1) Drivers of commercial motor vehicles must obtain a commercial driver's license as required under this chapter. Except when driving… < > …for the vehicle they are driving. However, this requirement does not apply to any person:
(c) Who is operating a recreational vehicle for noncommercial purposes. As used in this section, "recreational vehicle" includes a vehicle towing a horse trailer for a noncommercial purpose…
WAC 308-100-210
*Recreational vehicle—Definition.
For the purposes of RCW 46.25.050 (1)(c), the term "recreational vehicle" shall include vehicles used exclusively for noncommercial purposes which are:
(1) Primarily designed for recreational, camping, or travel use;
WAC 308-100-010
Vehicles requiring a commercial driver's license for their operation. (5) All public school buses, regardless of capacity. All persons driving such
vehicles, other than those exempt under RCW 46.25.050, must have a
commercial driver's license with the proper classification(s) and endorsements.
FACT: that RCW 46.25.080 is the one (1) and only license classification statute in title 46 of the motor vehicle code for the State of Washington and it is also undisputed that all three classes of licenses issued under this statute are: (Class A, Class B & Class C) and are ALL COMMERCIAL DRIVERS LICENSES.
I INVOKE ALL MY GOD GIVEN, NATURAL, UNALIENABLE, RIGHTS AND WAIVE NONE.
“DUE PROCESS OF LAW” AND “EQUAL PROTECTION UNDER THE LAW” SHALL NOT BE VIOLATED.
If the State, City, Towns, County, is the "Plaintiff" = No Standing in court = No Case… 🤣🤣🤣
Good stuff
Stratocaster👍👍
I have found nothing that says the police and other government officials cannot be billed for violations and crimes against the citizen. Many cases have been dismissed by DA's after being detained and arrested and others are detained and handcuffed etc and then let go. The citizen has no choice because of the fears that possible escalation and additional problems from captors may happen.
I think the government entity can be billed at the standard or average reasonable rates established in past cases. It is important to discourage police from wrongfully exercising there judgement against the citizen under the color of Law. What do you think? Lack of knowledge about the laws and citizen rights and due process would be forced to change in the departments because they could no longer hijack the system to punish citizens for free. One of the unjust choices forced on the citizens is to decide whether to pay bills and eat or get an attorney for a process that drags out over time and favors all related parties except the Law abiding lower income citizens.
I hope you have some information I can reference because I have asked others and tried to find pertinent related info.
So in The Great Courses, Law School for Everyone they talked about Amendment 5 and the right to Remain Silent… wherein they tell of cases (I can't remember what ones) where the accused didn't speak at all or very little and that was used against the persons because, they didn't explicitly invoke the Fifth though, in the Miranda warning the phrase 'Remain Silent" presupposes one was already not speaking and or can immediately clam up for defense. How can that be so given the explicit verbiage of the Miranda warning? Is one required to say they are invoking the Fifth (thus breaking their silence) or be allowed to "remain silent"?
Seems to me remaining silent is in all forms including written, which would cover I.d., insurance papers.
if you didn't already I was wondering if you could comment or make a brief video on uniform commercial code UCC 9-109 consumer goods. and the UCC 1-207/308 when signing contracts
Sinister is playing Pokémon in church parking lot (night) ?
(You may not be able to answer this) If you ask if you're being detained and they avoid the question. ie not answer the question. (assuming not a traffic stop) Can one just walk away until they answer the question or say the words your being detained?
I stopped at 28:38 because it was pretty obvious to i that the rest of call a liar video was going nowhere.
suddenly we went from police to peace officers?
What happened to the second amendment?
So what "law" for example would somebody be breaking when a cop pulls u over for a cracked windshield?
anytime someone uses the word legal and lawful in the same sentence it is a good indication they are jerking your chain.
