Officer Paula almond. Expecting EVERYONE to obey the law does not make you a sovereign citizen. Only those who believe the law does not apply to them are sovereign citizens and the single largest group of sovereign citizens are those working as police. That is why they are called cops instead of LAW ENFORCEMENT officers. www.archives.gov/founding-docs/constitution-transcript Article. VI. “This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND (emphasis added); and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.” www.ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?doc=19&page=transcript Marbury v. Madison (1803) The question, whether an act, repugnant to the constitution, can become the law of the land, is a question deeply interesting to the United States; but happily, not of an intricacy proportioned to its interest. It seems only necessary to recognize certain principles, supposed to have been long and well established, to decide it. That the people have an original right to establish, for their future government, such principles as, in their opinion, shall most conduce to their own happiness, is the basis on which the whole American fabric has been erected. The exercise of this original right is a very great exertion; nor can it, nor ought it, to be frequently repeated. The principles, therefore, so established, are deemed fundamental. And as the authority from which they proceed is supreme, and can seldom act, they are designed to be permanent. This original and supreme will organizes the government, and assigns to different departments their respective powers. It may either stop here, or establish certain limits not to be transcended by those departments. The government of the United States is of the latter description. The powers of the legislature are defined and limited; and that those limits may not be mistaken, or forgotten, the constitution is written. To what purpose are powers limited, and to what purpose is that limitation committed to writing, if these limits may, at any time, be passed by those intended to be restrained? The distinction between a government with limited and unlimited powers is abolished, if those limits do not confine the persons on whom they are imposed, and if acts prohibited and acts allowed, are of equal obligation. It is a proposition too plain to be contested, that the constitution controls any legislative act repugnant to it; or, that the legislature may alter the constitution by an ordinary act. Between these alternatives there is no middle ground. The constitution is either a superior, paramount law, unchangeable by ordinary means, or it is on a level with ordinary legislative acts, and, like other acts, is alterable when the legislature shall please to alter it. If the former part of the alternative be true, then a legislative act contrary to the constitution is not law: if the latter part be true, then written constitutions are absurd attempts, on the part of the people, to limit a power in its own nature illimitable. Certainly all those who have framed written constitutions contemplate them as forming the FUNDAMENTAL AND PARAMOUNT LAW (emphasis added) of the nation, and consequently, the theory of every such government must be, that an act of the legislature, repugnant to the constitution, is void. It is also not entirely unworthy of observation that in declaring what shall be the SUPREME LAW OF THE LAND (emphasis added), the constitution itself is first mentioned; and not the laws of the United States generally, but those only which shall be made in pursuance of the constitution, have that rank. Thus, the particular phraseology of the constitution of the United States confirms and strengthens the principle, supposed to be essential to all written constitutions, that A LAW REPUGNANT TO THE CONSTITUTION IS VOID (emphasis added); and that courts, as well as other departments, are bound by that instrument. www.archives.gov/founding-docs/amendments-11-27 Amendment 14, section 1: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. NO STATE SHALL MAKE OR ENFORCE ANY LAW WHICH SHALL ABRIDGE THE PRIVILEGES OR IMMUNITIES OF CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES (emphasis added); nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
James Freeman is a GENIUS- total American Hero. I love this guy.We all should learn from him because his integrity and pursuit of justice applies to everything. This is how we change the WORLD 🌎
Bro, I didn't believe you until I looked it up! Garbage men have 3x more on the job deaths than cops!!! Bartending is even more dangerous, and landscaping. Every job I've had is more dangerous than being a cop!! 😆😆😆😆
Makes sense what other job do u get a vehicle, bulletproof vest, a tool belt filled with weapons to fuck someone up, and a partner to watch ur back along with unlimited armed people to come protect u if ur feeling unsafe lol
If he deletes it not only is that illegal but worse for him. It means that instead of finding the footage immediately, they have to search the phone and therefore see everything on there.
Firstly, I don’t believe that there is any proof that the officer was actually recording the encounter. The officer said he was, but that could’ve been a bluff. So in my view, the officer could’ve erased it and claimed he was never really recording. I love that james followed up on what he said he was going to do and FOIA-ed the recording. Brass balls as always...
Well obviously, he fucking didn't. Did you even watch the whole video? The video clearly showed that James had gotten the cop's video and showed his video being shot at the same time.. Man you gotta stitch this stuff together when watching it.
John Banks Why yes I did watch the entire video. Frankly, my favorite part was when the officer said “This is my video”. The very next scene was James saying, “Now it’s mine”! Hilarious. Obviously the officer is nearer retirement than he is the beginning of watch and he wants to go along to get along. But specifically what I was referencing was that prior to FOIA-ing officer Spears personal video, there was no PROOF that he was actually recording! But thanks anyway for your comment Columbo.
I Grow Sticky Buds Firstly, and finally, your phone, my phone, and any one else’s phone can’t be searched if you have a passcode. If you recall, if you are old enough, late 2015, Apple refused to reveal the San Bernadino terrorist attackers phone passcode to authorities. However, so I’ve heard, that municipality paid up words of one million dollars for a hacker to break into it. So what I’m saying is, officer spears could’ve recorded the encounter, erased it, and would’ve never been discovered. Use your head for something other than a hat rack son.
Ouuu I'm very suprised james didnt do that. Put I guess its possibly illegal. If it isnt, I'm sure james didnt do it just because he doesnt want to leak someone's personal information
I don't understand why there are not cameras allowed in courtrooms, forget the " Judge" We Are The People! If a judge does not believe in transperancy and the Constitution of The United States of America, they should not be a "Judge"!!!
ANY photo taken by a government employee on duty is available via a FOIA. The ownership of the device taking the photo is not relevant. Deleting it is a crime.
@@fedimusmaximus2454 it is the responsibility of the government employee to know that as soon as they push record or click the shutter that whatever is captured is government property. The employee gets to keep the phone of course but the images captured belong to the government if they were taken while he was on duty performing his job. The sticky issue is whether or not the government employee actually took a photo or made a video and was not just holding up the phone to create the image. you can certainly bet if the government employee slipped and fell well taking a photo he would be eligible for workers comp.
@@dontclickme4632 Video link says "thank you for 500 subscribers". Nothing to do with this video or Robert's wish to see that officers face when he's made to hand his phone over.
Thank you for adding his footage. I wish more of them should be added to these videos instead of just hearing that you can FOIA them and never getting to see it later
@@nothanksmate I have people walk behind me nearly every day...I dont have, nor have I seen anyone else in that normal situation have panic attacks over it. If you do I would suggest having that problem treated by professional therapy.👍
"They have to lie and cheat even when it doesn't matter" - James Freeman. Amen. It's all about that power struggle. You have spent countless hours studying these criminals and detailed their ways so perfectly.
He has been working in that courtroom so long that he really does believe he can just make up laws to get the public to do whatever he wants, after all, he watches it happen all day long every day he works.
James, I find almost all your videos to be extremely informative. However, this video raises the bar, showing videos can be as entertaining as they are informative. Thanks.
The brickwork was awesome as were 'most' of the staff there. Plain view doctrine and not even any signage saying 'stay out of the your gardens'. I bet theres a 6'ft fence around that garden now 😆😆🤣... Purple shirt just kept poppin up everywhere. Lol. Good upload, thanks !
The glass bricks are gorgeous, just bothers me that the compensation for this art was extracted for a courthouse and not just a visual installment for public display.
This video was awesome James! I love it and you're an inspiration to say the least. Hopefully you'll continue to influence people to film our public servants.
When requesting cell phone footage ensure you request the entire contact list as well because that would be anyone the recording can be shared with. Thanks Susan Bassi.
This is great, man... most people wouldn't have committed to recording through those court windows but the response you got inside and out was SO WORTH IT... thanks for that 👍 Edit: The instant that I submitted this comment he called you a sovereign citizen. I hope we all know who the real sovereign citizens are in The United States by now and it ain't those who are trying to defend their Constitutional Rights; it's those who use "qualified immunity" claims in court to say that they're above the law after violating Constitutional Rights of others...💯 His ignorant snickers about record requests on his phone, too.... priceless...
Hey man, thanks so much for showing the FOIA request form and how you filled it out. I watch a lot of "auditing" videos lately, and have learned so much from watching the common patterns across different channels and videos or interactions. I'm learning the law through you guys. However, this is possibly the first time I've seen a video where someone has actually shown me some of the paper work side of these processes. I think a lot of people are anxious about the idea of doing what you do, for themselves, because they do not have a clue about the paper work, and with regards to anxiety, I suspect many people naturally go for the videos on handling interactions, instead of handling paper work. Lets face it, most of the exciting drama is not the paper work! I know this fro myself. But it's really nice to be gently walked into the paper work side of understanding our rights and becoming familiar with practicing the art of protecting everyone's rights. I'm from Ireland, so the American stuff only assists me so much. Over here though, we do have what is sort of like a constitution. It's called that, but it's Glossa'd (or glossed) from what I can see. However the fake courts here Act like it's a common law constitution. We appear to have a similar common law "constitution", with legal Statutes and Acts applied on top. So in many ways it seems I may have this same ability to stand in the common law of the land, as well as step into the matrix of commerce, to be a citizen or person with a surname. Still figuring out what it is I don't know that I should know XD I do not want to interact with my government and let them know what I might know and use later, as they are more dangerous than what you guys might be used to. It seems best for me to gather knowledge outside of the states watch, as much as possible(spying on me through social media not withstanding). Anyway, I appreciate the inside view of the FOIA request process, and hope you can explain more about these types of processes, and how to avoid certain paper work tricks, scams or issues when interacting with the state or it's agents/agencies. I watch these videos mainly for the education, not the entertainment. Although, they are very entertaining too :) Thanks!
"Do you have anything better to do"? Yes James has lots of other things he would like to be doing but unfortunately in this day and age with the government unwill to hold themselves to a higher standard he and other citizens are forced to hold a camera so they can do the job we expect of them to do.
Maaaaaaad respect i can't get enough from watching this videos i can't even describe them like you're helping more than hurting them their ego gets bigger day by day to the point they might do something stupid but u come and put them to default
So they could put a 200-ft garden around all public buildings and then say you can't step on the garden basically preventing you from even going near the building?
Best bits when the officer started the copsplaining crap and Freeman just walked away.The exasperation/astonishment caught in the milliseconds after he started was just priceless.
•Whats with all the lighting in the court room. Looks like they are set up for a concert. •Thats awesome you put matlock's video on here. First time I've seen that done!
"...now it belongs to me." YES! haha you got his footage (part of) still a win even if wasnt ALL the footage. it still showed him you can get into his PERSONAL phone if used for BUSINESS... HAHAHAHA LOVE IT!
Finally, some public employees, who are actually nice, I mean those ladies where really helpful. Spears wasn’t so bad at all. I hope he learned a lesson!
In the first minute I already have 2 thumbs down! That means there are people so desperate to hit the thumbs down, that they have subscribed and have the bell turned on so they get notified immediately when I release a new video. Thanks for the support! 😂😂😂

otman ab stop. That’s irrelevant.
@@dontclickme4632 Video link says "thank you for 500 subscribers". Nothing to do with this video or Robert's wish to see that officers face when he's made to hand his phone over.
Even if he had to turn it over, do you honestly think he cares one way or the other?
@@donmoore7785 it's not about whether or not he cares, it's about the fact that he learns that nothing he films while working is private.
Thank you for adding his footage. I wish more of them should be added to these videos instead of just hearing that you can FOIA them and never getting to see it later
guy with the gun doesn't want guy with the camera to walk behind him lol
Because the camera will catch what the gun does!!
How about..... because the camera guy can take his gun....
@@arturoinfante7585
Show us an example of an auditor reaching for or taking a cops gun!!
@@jeremyhubbardTX1 You like people walking behind you?
@@nothanksmate
I have people walk behind me nearly every day...I dont have, nor have I seen anyone else in that normal situation have panic attacks over it.
If you do I would suggest having that problem treated by professional therapy.👍
"It had to be back in the 1920s" when you were asking for officer Spears DOB was funny AF🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is one of my all time favorite 1A audits. Splicing the 2 together is genius
Thanks for touching the wall. I was just thinking the same thing. 🤣🤣🤣🤣✌🏼♥️👊🏼
Not gonna lie I cracked a smile cause I would have done the same exact thing
Too funny. You taught him a very valuable lesson Freeman. He will never forget meeting you.
"thats actually not a law, thank you anyways"
"no but"
That part killed me😂
All courts need to be open and free to see... Or we are not a free country..
The facade of that court building is awesome
James Freeman
You should play the Jaws theme song when you walk around!
That would be pretty cool..😂
And perhaps the Imperial March from Star Wars when the cops show up?
"They have to lie and cheat even when it doesn't matter" - James Freeman. Amen. It's all about that power struggle. You have spent countless hours studying these criminals and detailed their ways so perfectly.
I love this guy lol very entertaining and he’s so knowledgeable
I love the attitude of the 3 women in the office with The lady in black and green shirt. Very respectful and kind and intelligent…
@James Freeman Once again, thanks for the great work! It's the foot soldiers like you that make the difference in upholding our rights!
Wow, that is amazing to see ! The only thing more amazing would have been to see his face when told he had to give up the video !
He has been working in that courtroom so long that he really does believe he can just make up laws to get the public to do whatever he wants, after all, he watches it happen all day long every day he works.
We love some James Freeman FOIA requests...get 'em good buddy
It would've been funny if when James stuck the camera up to that window, a bewildered face was looking back at him.
The brunette waving hello from her desk was AWESOME. Atleast SHE understand what it means to serve the public!!!...
I would like to see the look on his face, when you get records requested for his phone
James, I find almost all your videos to be extremely informative. However, this video raises the bar, showing videos can be as entertaining as they are informative. Thanks.
“I was dead ☠️ laughing when he was looking in the window for attention.”

Thank you people ☺ :)
The brickwork was awesome as were 'most' of the staff there. Plain view doctrine and not even any signage saying 'stay out of the your gardens'. I bet theres a 6'ft fence around that garden now 😆😆🤣...
Purple shirt just kept poppin up everywhere. Lol. Good upload, thanks !
A nice touch posting his own video footage you got from your FOIA/public records request. Well done!!
Has anybody found out if the bailiff still thinks it's funny ?
The glass bricks are gorgeous, just bothers me that the compensation for this art was extracted for a courthouse and not just a visual installment for public display.
Fr let the people have that at least
m.ua-cam.com/video/URVaAA6Ce08/v-deo.html
Thank you people ☺ :)
Government has unlimited funds!
It looks like a public restroom.
This video was awesome James! I love it and you're an inspiration to say the least. Hopefully you'll continue to influence people to film our public servants.
Most people fear cops, but that cop fears James now!!
When requesting cell phone footage ensure you request the entire contact list as well because that would be anyone the recording can be shared with. Thanks Susan Bassi.
You gotta go back and ask him about the city getting the videos from his personal phone 😂
Lesson of the day, if you've done something for decades, it's far more likely you've forgotten things, than learned everything.
You're video audits are always great, and informative. Thank you for being a true patriot, and fighting the war against tyranny.
This is great, man... most people wouldn't have committed to recording through those court windows but the response you got inside and out was SO WORTH IT... thanks for that 👍
Edit: The instant that I submitted this comment he called you a sovereign citizen. I hope we all know who the real sovereign citizens are in The United States by now and it ain't those who are trying to defend their Constitutional Rights; it's those who use "qualified immunity" claims in court to say that they're above the law after violating Constitutional Rights of others...💯
His ignorant snickers about record requests on his phone, too.... priceless...
Hey man, thanks so much for showing the FOIA request form and how you filled it out.
I watch a lot of "auditing" videos lately, and have learned so much from watching the common patterns across different channels and videos or interactions. I'm learning the law through you guys.
However, this is possibly the first time I've seen a video where someone has actually shown me some of the paper work side of these processes.
I think a lot of people are anxious about the idea of doing what you do, for themselves, because they do not have a clue about the paper work, and with regards to anxiety, I suspect many people naturally go for the videos on handling interactions, instead of handling paper work.
Lets face it, most of the exciting drama is not the paper work! I know this fro myself.
But it's really nice to be gently walked into the paper work side of understanding our rights and becoming familiar with practicing the art of protecting everyone's rights.
I'm from Ireland, so the American stuff only assists me so much.
Over here though, we do have what is sort of like a constitution. It's called that, but it's Glossa'd (or glossed) from what I can see. However the fake courts here Act like it's a common law constitution.
We appear to have a similar common law "constitution", with legal Statutes and Acts applied on top.
So in many ways it seems I may have this same ability to stand in the common law of the land, as well as step into the matrix of commerce, to be a citizen or person with a surname.
Still figuring out what it is I don't know that I should know XD
I do not want to interact with my government and let them know what I might know and use later, as they are more dangerous than what you guys might be used to.
It seems best for me to gather knowledge outside of the states watch, as much as possible(spying on me through social media not withstanding).
Anyway, I appreciate the inside view of the FOIA request process, and hope you can explain more about these types of processes, and how to avoid certain paper work tricks, scams or issues when interacting with the state or it's agents/agencies.
I watch these videos mainly for the education, not the entertainment. Although, they are very entertaining too :)
Thanks!
you did teach that tyrant a lesson i felt like at the end he was going to cry or something but he was holding himself haha
So when they get too old to patrol, they get put out to pasture in a court room.🐐🐐🐐🐐
Or they become car park security.
"Do you have anything better to do"? Yes James has lots of other things he would like to be doing but unfortunately in this day and age with the government unwill to hold themselves to a higher standard he and other citizens are forced to hold a camera so they can do the job we expect of them to do.
Haha wow
m.ua-cam.com/video/URVaAA6Ce08/v-deo.html
Thank you people ☺
But doesn't get paid to do it , lame
Yes!Slim.
Yeah, so hes recording court proceedings by foiling the purpose of the blocking film used to keep the public eye out.
Buttholes!
Those ladies were awesome, so professional and helpful. We want more like them!!
Very nice employees, surprised they were so friendly and helpful, so glad to see to see for a change
“I’m not scary, am I?!” was actually a little bit scary lol
I love how you added it to your video and proved a large point. I bet he was shocked when he had to fork over his camera. LOL
11:47 👈 This is the proper way to react to seeing a camera pointed at you. It's also acceptable to add a cheery, "Hi, Mom."
NIICE!! Great video James!! I wonder at the moment the footage was requested (compelled) from him if he said like waaat.. 🤣🤣
Brilliant getting his phone Mr. Freeman. Bravo.
Maaaaaaad respect i can't get enough from watching this videos i can't even describe them
like you're helping more than hurting them their ego gets bigger day by day to the point they might do something stupid but u come and put them to default
11:50 when I heard James say :"City Security " I had to do a double take.......it's all good my brother haha Still nothin but love homie ✊🏿
he corrected himself with subtitles right before he did it on camera later when he was editing.
Bro I love how you actually got the footage from that guys phone and posted it. Thanks for the great videos
The side by side footage was great lol.
“Is he gonna retire soon “ I hope so 😂
You got his personal video.... That is amazing that they actually gave it to you in itself. But you posting it was epic. Good job sir.
So they could put a 200-ft garden around all public buildings and then say you can't step on the garden basically preventing you from even going near the building?
m.ua-cam.com/video/URVaAA6Ce08/v-deo.html
Thank you people ☺ :)
Why fuck around with a garden when they could get a moat.. with sharks, and snakes, and ill-tempered seabass...
Again I'm HOPING, props to landscape architect! Creating available places to stand, with no destruction to gatden.
I love it. Its about time they learn that we can foia there personal phone data if they use it in the course of their duty. Great job again James.
He's so old ,I'm surprised we didn't see footage of the dinosaurs when he walked the earth with them.
Thanks for sharing. That wall is bad ass
m.ua-cam.com/video/URVaAA6Ce08/v-deo.html
Thank you people ☺
Best bits when the officer started the copsplaining crap and Freeman just walked away.The exasperation/astonishment caught in the milliseconds after he started was just priceless.
Would loved to have seen the look on his face when they asked for his phone! Bwahaha. Bet he’ll never do that again.
•Whats with all the lighting in the court room.
Looks like they are set up for a concert.
•Thats awesome you put matlock's video on here. First time I've seen that done!
m.ua-cam.com/video/URVaAA6Ce08/v-deo.html
Thank you people ☺
James is playing the symphony here.
Cool. If it's a public space, take some musical instruments and jam out, man.
"...now it belongs to me." YES! haha you got his footage (part of) still a win even if wasnt ALL the footage. it still showed him you can get into his PERSONAL phone if used for BUSINESS... HAHAHAHA LOVE IT!
LOL. Got to love the trolls. Great job as usual. court cop learned a lesson that day. Love the virtual "kick in the balls." Keep up the great works.
Finally, some public employees, who are actually nice, I mean those ladies where really helpful.
Spears wasn’t so bad at all.
I hope he learned a lesson!
I've been learning so much from your channel. Seriously, great content!
Back2Basic: thank you for educating people on freedoms!! Are WE free??

Nope
Damn we need so much more people like u guys exposing these clowns they act so untouchable wow thanks for the good work deserve a lot of credit
Keep up the outstanding work James.
“The old man spears” 🤣
Thank you for sharing your adventure. Keep up the good work.
