Video @: Checkpoint No Consent, Warrantless Vehicle Search, Right to - YouTube

Man refuses to roll down his window to a checkpoint. He continues to take pictures, as the sheriff comes over they motion him to go to a secondary area and they bash his window in while he is in his car. Is this a bit excessive and goes against our rights? I think so. No warrant was presented.

If checkpoints are legal in that state, then I have no problem with what they did. He wouldn't even talk to them. If a copper gives you a lawful order, you obey. Period.

He was making some sort of test case of himself. It probably cost him a couple hundred dollars. Stupid. Serves him right.

Looks like fun.

What kind of a loser sets out to take pictures of the Border Patrol and generally be a Troll.

Been ruled otherwise by the courts as our Militant Police act ever aggressively against the People; but I feel that checkpoints in general violate the Constitution as they are clearly warantless searches. I throw drug dogs into the same category. I ain't seen a regular dog run up and bark at the smell of pot. You have to train them, you've essentially made a machine. And if a cop cannot use some form of hand held spectrometer around a car, then he can't use a dog.
 
This is a perfect example of my "more liberal taser use" position. People should get tased for asking stupid questions.

A couple hundred bucks? It will be more than that, he's gonna get all sorts of charges and need a lawyer, and blah blah blah. This whole thing is designed to siphon money away from the People.

Warrants aren't always needed for a search, or for a stop.

This guy was an ass hole who was looking for trouble. He should have rolled down his window, at least partially.

Man, you'd be tazed non-stop.


hahahah

No, the whole thing is designed to handle stupid idiots. Didn't realize he had charges; should've known that. Maybe he learned a lesson.

Thats what this guy's actions were..... A ploy to siphon money away from the people by trying his damnedest to create a situation where he could try to sue someone.

Dumb ass...... You can't tell me his actions served any legitimate purpose whatsoever.

Does that post make any sense?

Anyway, after they broke the window they should tased the **** outta 'm.

I support tasing people for supporting checkpoints.

As long as a lot of mother****ers are gettin' tased, society will be better off. I'm tellin' ya, people need it.
 
I hate checkpoints, but one time I had a cop make a pass at me during one.....lol....................

No ****..

It was US Border Patrol, they were a few miles inside the border (you know, that pourous thing that keeps leaking new "undocumented workers") so I can see how the checkpoint was legit.

Most likely all the dumb ass had to do was show some ID, while at the same time the Patrolman would peer into the passenger area (plain view) and then send him on his merry little way.

If he wanted to take photos he should have parked afterwards and taken all the goddamned photos he wanted to.

When does the State ever have to learn their lesson? Seems to me that it's always the individual who has to learn the lesson of Government Domination.

Of course it does. You said people should be tazed for stupid comments, I just mentioned that if stupid comments are the limitation, you'd be tazed constantly. Follow now? It was pretty funny.

Nah...He has no reason to stop me, so why should I listen to him? He can **** off.

What lawful order? He refused a search, which is WELL within his rights. I hope you're not one of those "do whatever the police tell you" types who opposes people citing their rights.

He was making some sort of test case of himself. It probably cost him a couple hundred dollars. Stupid. Serves him right.

If he wasn't being detained he should be free to go. What PC did they have to detain him in secondary inspection? From his story (and yes of course if he is full of it it'll come out in court) they had none.

I really hate these bull**** "interior" border patrol checkpoints. They can occur far from any border and treat the coasts as our borders too:

This includes EVERYWHERE in my state.

Of course it does. The government needs to be reminded it's not in charge, it doesn't hold the power. His actions served completely legitimate purpose. Without cause or warrant, the cops may not do these things. And I hope he does sue and I hope he does win, and I hope some people get fired over this. It's time to reign the government in, not excuse it's aggressive actions against us further.

There was no sound on that video. You have no idea what they were asking him. First thing was probably: "Sir, please roll down your window." What.A.Dork.

I wrote 'stupid questions'.

So you are saying that Border Patrol shouldn't use a USSC approved method (checkpoint) to attempt to do what a large percentage of the American population (The People) have employed them to do (because Border security is their job)???

What lesson is there to be learned from this?

Property damage and arrest are not warranted without proper cause or warrant first.
