Watch this video as a man, Andre Stockett, defends his rights at a routine traffic stop and police try everything they can to make him yield, even threatening to take their 2 week old baby to Child Protective Services, because he refused to show his ID.
Yes, this man could have shown his ID and perhaps avoided all the hooplah, but one should never be scared or to defend their rights, especially if they feel they might subject themselves to more of the same abuse if they do.
The incident happened in Sandusky, Ohio.
why don’t u guys stop trying to be the boss over everyone ok.cause u can’t push everyone around.and u know it and u cops that u were wrong.
All he had to do was tell the officer he was an undocumented worker and he would have been sent on his way
Hell hope that city gets sued for Billions and that Police Department is FORCED to be Dismantled! What that cop done is 100% illegal and he should be punished along side ALL that support his actions!
All I know is that if you don’t provide identification during a traffic stop, nine times out of ten, it’s click click until they find out who you are. Why should they take the risk of getting killed by a wanted felon? I agree that it’s inconvenient, but put yourself in their position just once. It takes alot of balls to protect and serve. Not cooperating is almost the same as resisting. You live in America, and yes, you have rights, but there are also rules. If you don’t respect the rules, you don’t deserve the rights.
no they had no right to do this to them and it was an illegal search based upon a routine traffic check which is also illegal if it was a road block check. this is harassment plan and simple. you do not have to tell them where you have been nor do you have to tell them where you are going and a passe.nger does not have to show any type of Identification
It doesn’t take a lot of balls to threaten someone. Put yourself in his place, meaning the guy in the car. If he needed justification to stand up for his rights, the officer offers it by threatening his child. It’s not a matter of inconvenience, it is a matter of constitutional rights. No police office should violate a person’s rights and then be offered the protection of his shield. The shield is an honor earned by the sacrifices of thousands of truly remarkable men and women who have served it. The officer in this video is not a remarkable man. His behavior is despicable and criminal. To offer him to protection of the shield is to dishonor the shield and to dishonor the sacrifice of those thousands.
we are just seeing pregame previews as to how the s@#t is going to go down, that’s all!
Ok, he could have shown his ID, but the cops were clearly fishing. …I too would fear for my life with these excessive force police.
The police were clearly wrong in this instance. The police have to have reasonable cause to believe you have broken the law to detain you and to ask for ID. Not doing so violated the Fourth Amendment on the Bill of Rights.
why don’t they ask all obamers river jumpers for ID??
More proof of GESTAPO POLICE
He should have respect for the law and show his ID!!
