I love how they think it’s offensive that he asked to look in their vehicle for alcohol or drugs, yet they do it to citizens every day, and their excuse is, “we’re allowed to ask.”. Yet after they ask, and are denied, canine is called, or the driver is placed in handcuffs, and suddenly they have glassy, watery eyes and see to do a roadside DUI test!
I love it how he turns the tables around on them!
U should have told him. He was detained n looks suspicious… Lol
I’d wish he was more brushed up and confident in asking for the ID
Next time…he should radio for more of his friends to come and surround the officers he is questioning. 7 or 8 of his friends should do.
This shows them exactly how it feels to be interrogated
1) “You’re shaking. Are you nervous?”
2) “How much have you had to drink today?”
3) “Is this your vehicle?”
4) “Where did you come from?”
5) “Where are you going?”
6) “What’s going on?”
7) “What’s the deal?”
8) “Got an ID on you?”
9) “You live near here?”
10) “Are you an attorney?”
11) “Where did you get your law degree?”
12) “Keep you hands where I can see them.”
13) “Why are you being so uncooperative?”Guess he needs permission to give his ID talking to someone on his radio.
LOL you should have asked if she could wait a minute well you went and got a dog to search around her vehicle LOL my opinion
Let’s talk about speaking the language of Trump….
The second they admit that the Kraken was all made up, they are exposed as authoritarians trying to subvert the constitution.
Trump’s Threat to Democracy
four warning signs to determine if a political leader is a dangerous authoritarian:
- The leader shows only a weak commitment to democratic rules.
- He or she denies the legitimacy of opponents.
- He or she tolerates violence.
- He or she shows some willingness to curb civil liberties or the media.
.. “With the exception of Richard Nixon, no major-party presidential candidate met even one of these four criteria over the last century,” they say, which sounds reassuring. Unfortunately, they have one update: “Donald Trump met them all.”
.. democracies are more likely to wither at the hands of insiders who gain power initially through elections. That’s what happened, to one degree or another, in
- Russia, the
- Philippines,
- Turkey,
- Venezuela,
- Ecuador,
- Hungary,
- Nicaragua,
- Sri Lanka,
- Ukraine,
- Poland and
- Peru.
.. Venezuela was a relatively prosperous democracy, for example, when the populist demagogue Hugo Chávez tapped the frustrations of ordinary citizens to be elected president in 1998.
.. the Venezuelan public overwhelmingly believed that “democracy is always the best form of government,” with only one-quarter saying that authoritarianism is sometimes preferable. Yet against their will, Venezuelans slid into autocracy.
“This is how democracies now die,” Levitsky and Ziblatt write. “Democratic backsliding today begins at the ballot box.”
.. he has tried to undermine institutions and referees of our political system: judges, the Justice Department, law enforcement agencies like the F.B.I., the intelligence community, the news media, the opposition party and Congress. But to his great frustration, American institutions have mostly passed the stress test with flying colors... Levitsky and Ziblatt warn of the unraveling of democratic norms — norms such as treating the other side as rivals rather than as enemies, condemning violence and bigotry, and so on. This unraveling was underway long before Trump (Newt Gingrich nudged it along in the 1990s), but Trump accelerated it... It matters when Trump
- denounces the “deep state Justice Department,”
- calls Hillary Clinton a “criminal” and
- urges “jail” for Huma Abedin,
- denounces journalists as the “enemy of the American people” and
- promises to pay the legal fees of supporters who “beat the crap” out of protesters.
.. The answer, they said, is not for Trump opponents to demonize the other side or to adopt scorched-earth tactics, for this can result in “a death spiral in which rule-breaking becomes pandemic.” It’s also not terribly effective, as we’ve seen in Venezuela... they suggested protesting vigorously — but above all, in defense of rights and institutions, not just against the ruler... build coalitions, even if that means making painful compromises, so that protests are very broadly based.
