I think cops are a joke, but do i go around filming police stations to troll them and get a response? That is a fucking childish thing to do, your rights? At the end of a day if a corrupt cop wants to tackle you to the ground and say you were being aggressive he can. I hope he crosses the wrong cop one day and gets shot
Wouldn't it be something if a cop came over to you and said "Hey guys, I got a call about people taking pictures. I am going to go inside now and educate their security dept, let them know that photography is not a crime. I wish they would inform them of this over the phone so we could avoid coming out on calls like this altogether, but... Anyway, you can stay or go, your choice, but I have no issues with you or what you're doing. Have a good day gentlemen"
I saw a 2nd Amendment Audit video that was pretty much like that about a year back...don't recall from who, but it's probably still on youtube somewhere (and probably mirrored). So there are good cops out there who know what the laws are! Just hard to find sometimes!
There have been a few audits on consulates. Some of them have had their guards and diplomats put up a fuss, and there have been some curt words exchanges - but nothing major. I highly recommend it. I'd like to see the Kuwaiti consulate/mission in NYC audited.
I've seen some audits of consulates. They hire private security companies to guard them, and the guards are just as dumb as any other rent-a-cop. And they have no immunity. Just stay on the sidewalk.
Time to throw a wrench in the works. You guys should talk to each other ABOUT the cop, but act as if he cannot see you.....like narrating a wildlife documentary....:):):):)
Gavin's great but he's talking to his audience....these guys should do it only talking among themselves...not even acknowledging anything the cop is saying...:)
"I think it's trying to communicate." "This is one of the feral ones,....um,.......I mean federal." "Yes, I hear they're even less intelligent than the local variety, and have much less territory." "Look, that one's all puffed up, trying to impress the female of the species." "You know, the more intelligent ones can even be trained. I've heard lawsuits work really well."
Ive been watching these videos for over a year from all over the country and I would like to say thanks to all the people that have been working hard at these audits. It has made a huge difference everywhere. Police are finally learning (or are being forced into) there place in society. They are nothing more than piddly little employees and have no special powers over the people. I think we should push to force police to have to carry brooms with them so they can do some sweeping of the streets when they are just standing around like they do.
I know some people like silent audits but I think your talents are wasted with it. some auditors should shut up but you do a pretty good job of expressing yourself and not misquoting law
The silent treatment is always my favorite, it aggrivates officers because they cant get a leg up on you if you dont say a word, the main tactic they use is getting you to talk to them and when they cant they get annoyed and either leave you alone or illegally detain/arrest.
Fake tattoos would be a help. Also learn 30 or 40 words of Russian and call each other by name, eg Boris, Sergei, etc.and don't use any English. What would the reaction be?
You took the words out of my mouth when you said 'the power of the silent treatment'. It's amazing that you can utterly de-claw law enforcement by just ignoring them. That's power.
Another brilliant job by the expert in this field. I'm in agreement with the others that I hate the silent treatment, but only because we don't get the chance to see you make them look like fools. I like Teen4Justice's tripod idea, too. That's gotta come in handy. Stay safe out there guys.
If they would start off by introducing themselves they would get more acceptance. Instead they walk up and start interrogating you. Perhaps they should be taught basic manners at their academy. Instead they come across as boorish thugs. Shunning has been effectively used to deal with offensive people for millennia. Nice video. Sometime it would be interesting to see the response to repeating whatever they say, back to them..
The silent stuff does have in place in the skill set ...but usually it's more fun trying to guess how much time will elapse before they ask for ID....And it's funny how CNN, CBS..and NBC get missed whey THEY are recording on a public sidewalk...
Cops are there to enforce the law, not to interact with citizens engaged in a lawful activity. Being bored, he parks in a red curb zone and neglects his duties which are not to harass people on the sidewalk. Not just ignorance in place here but hubris when you would not bow, submit, and reply to his questions.
I never will forget the day that DHS's finest used their police officer powers to attempt to ID me by my Elvis tattoo. Pathetic. Great video. High Desert Community Watch you are a First Amendment Audit legend.
what if the police are claim hunters seeking anyone with a claim? might it be best then to ask questions and make no claims? what is your name? how does one own such a thing...a name? be asking.
Hanging with you was a blessing. Eating with you was fulfilling. Auditing with you was empowering. Sharing knowledge with each other was enlightening. I am a new man because I found you.
i believe there is power in the silence but also in the asking of questions. conversely there is great lessening of power, i feel, when one makes claims. thanks for showing us this guys.
WOW! Usually San diego officers suffer from paranoid behavior so this is a good sign their getting the help they need. Now, try an audit of North and West division of San diego P.D..
Cop: "Wondering what's going on over here..." Gee, officer, you see people out in public with cameras. Could the be skydiving? Riding a train? Driving a car? What could people out in public with cameras be doing???? Send him back to the police academy.
Hey cops if you like those toys so much join the military. If not lose the military look and accessories you dont need, then go back to being public servants.
The silent treatment is effective because it thwarts a cop's efforts to draw you into a Q and A. With the average person, the Q and A is the cop's strong point. The Q and A is how cop's dupe people. Silence completely neutralizes that. However. with people who are knowledgeable of their rights I agree it's more gratifying and entertaining to watch a cop get verbally back slapped and then have to tuck tail and do the walk away.
I think the first cop to leave said "make sure you get my rights back"...That statement would be so hilarious if it wasn't so sad that that is exactly what you are doing, for all of us and him too...
What a FRICKING great welfare (federal paycheck) check that is, do NOTHING ALL DAY. So unusual to not hear you put them in there place and your so good at it. GREAT JOB GUYS
you should try wearing a shirt that reads "journalist" in small letters on one pocket. see if they still ask you for ID during that audit. would be interesting...
Slowly but surely, SOME departments are learning. When cops come out and see what is going on and immediately leave, we will know your goals have succeeded. Not quite there yet but at least these cops showed some maturity and didn't make them or their departments look bad.
Funny how the police actually saved the day on this one. Though their intentions may be questionable, the police educated these federal officers, and saved them from possibly violating someone's rights. All around outstanding video. The silent treatment really did show off these feds being incredibly stupid. But hopefully they learned a lesson, and if all the planets are aligned correctly maybe even support the cause.
Congrats-ish to FPS. Would have been full congrats except for the way one of your officers stood in a "ready-for-action" way (2:33 with one fist inside the other hand) in front of the guys with a camera - that should not have happened. Arrive - Observe - Assess - Decide. Your group of officers found two or three people with cameras in a public place. Maybe it's unusual but not illegal. Arrive - Observe - Assess - Decide.
silence will always be the best way to deal with police, they are trained at lying and intimidation. Silence will always win if you are not breaking the law.
Compa this Leo approached you rubbing his knuckles ready to inflict a beat down on you, honestly I thought this encounter was going to end with one sided violence, pero gracias a Dios it didn't happen!
I wonder how cops would be if dressed in white shirt, tie, kakis pants, no gun, American flag on shoulder. I would be much more polite than with a commando wannabe....
Like when you a CG were giving the Camp Parks MP the silent treatment and CG broke the silence and got assaulted. I just don't get the connection between cameras and terrorism. There is absolutely no evidence any terrorist went out before an attack and took video, NONE
that flag shot with the sun behind the tree was nice. those building look beautiful and I would think they get photographed s lot. I wish the cops where not talking to you so I could have seen more scenery

ahhhh in a perfect world. lol
hang3xc1 wouldn't that be something?

So there are good cops out there who know what the laws are! Just hard to find sometimes!
hang3xc1 ha ha ha.... Never happen..... You must be a comedian....... Cops don't enforce laws that don't generate revenue or laws they don't like
hang3xc1
That would indeed be awesome... but LEO have to assert their authority over people just cause they can...
Can you do audits on consulates? Apparently some of these foreigners don't like our rights
There have been a few audits on consulates. Some of them have had their guards and diplomats put up a fuss, and there have been some curt words exchanges - but nothing major. I highly recommend it. I'd like to see the Kuwaiti consulate/mission in NYC audited.
but they can get their right to remain in the USA removed.
lol, if you are NOT native, then you are a foreigner.
I've seen some audits of consulates. They hire private security companies to guard them, and the guards are just as dumb as any other rent-a-cop. And they have no immunity. Just stay on the sidewalk.
Time to throw a wrench in the works. You guys should talk to each other ABOUT the cop, but act as if he cannot see you.....like narrating a wildlife documentary....:):):):)
FreeTheRocks Gavin seim does this and it works amazingly well
Gavin's great but he's talking to his audience....these guys should do it only talking among themselves...not even acknowledging anything the cop is saying...:)
Oh ya! Awesome.
"I think it's trying to communicate."
"This is one of the feral ones,....um,.......I mean federal."

Great to stay Silent , they get so confused , once you speak to them they achieve Joinder .
WELL DONE

arjomac pig Latin !!! But the cops may understand that !!!😄😄 I can't believe how funny I am !
Wear a turban!!!!
You took the words out of my mouth when you said 'the power of the silent treatment'. It's amazing that you can utterly de-claw law enforcement by just ignoring them. That's power.
How to short circuit a cops brain tutorial.
That reminds me... My "SUCK IT EASY" shirt will be in the mail TODAY!
I love how the silent treatment makes them feel emasculated.
Should have told them to get out of the street, they might get hit by a car.
The first building you were filming is the US Bankruptcy Court. It is a beautiful old building with an elevator that has an old scissor door.
Lesbian doors ! YEAH !
love how he gives a description because you wont comply and talk to him
Another brilliant job by the expert in this field. I'm in agreement with the others that I hate the silent treatment, but only because we don't get the chance to see you make them look like fools.
I like Teen4Justice's tripod idea, too. That's gotta come in handy.
Stay safe out there guys.
Hahaha ahhh just like that great song from 'The Tremeloes' - Silence is Golden golden. (Man I gotta stop drinking with my uncles)
If they would start off by introducing themselves they would get more acceptance. Instead they walk up and start interrogating you. Perhaps they should be taught basic manners at their academy. Instead they come across as boorish thugs. Shunning has been effectively used to deal with offensive people for millennia.

The silent treatment is so badass, they’re completely disarmed by it. I wish everyone used this tactic
Silence is golden !! Less can be more. Good aplication of citizens civil liberties. Stay legal , and give nothing not required by LAW.
Cops are there to enforce the law, not to interact with citizens engaged in a lawful activity. Being bored, he parks in a red curb zone and neglects his duties which are not to harass people on the sidewalk. Not just ignorance in place here but hubris when you would not bow, submit, and reply to his questions.
hey Phillip! and family..i love watching your ch..your a single dad and teaching your kids about justice! please keep up the good work man! warriors!!
Silence is golden.They don't know what to do if they can't get a response to their fishing for an arrest!!
Perfect example of how being silent is the absolute best tactic when dealing with cops. They'll twist anything you say to try and hook you up.
M. C They are very good at that. Every word you say is a way for them to dig deeper until they find something.
Thank you 🙏
The silent treatment vids are my favorite. The confusion and or childish disdain is priceless. Haha
the silent ones are my favorite :)
They can't handle it. I swear that one of these times, their eyes and ears will explode.
I never will forget the day that DHS's finest used their police officer powers to attempt to ID me by my Elvis tattoo. Pathetic. Great video. High Desert Community Watch you are a First Amendment Audit legend.
what if the police are claim hunters seeking anyone with a claim? might it be best then to ask questions and make no claims? what is your name? how does one own such a thing...a name? be asking.
Nice to see you back auditing. Hope you and yours are well. Missed you. Your audits were always the best. Thank you for protecting our rights.
Hanging with you was a blessing. Eating with you was fulfilling. Auditing with you was empowering. Sharing knowledge with each other was enlightening. I am a new man because I found you.
i believe there is power in the silence but also in the asking of questions. conversely there is great lessening of power, i feel, when one makes claims. thanks for showing us this guys.
When they point their cell phone camera back at you, is that supposed to be intimidation? LOL
Your Worst Nightmare I wish they knew how petty they look when they do that
I was waiting for the "you're dismissed" when the last one walked by.
I love the effect of the silent treatment.
Silent treatment? Dammit, man...now how are they gonna know you're 50 years old? 😎
Carl Davis hahaha
WOW! Usually San diego officers suffer from paranoid behavior so this is a good sign their getting the help they need. Now, try an audit of North and West division of San diego P.D..

Seems like a GREAT place to come back to every once in a while to see if things change.
They now carry triple mag holders now. Guess 45 rounds isn't enough. Go for 60
Paul D. Williams , that’s because they can’t qualify at the gun range. They can’t hit the broad side of a barn!
Just like at your local movie theater... Silence is Golden!
Hey cops if you like those toys so much join the military. If not lose the military look and accessories you dont need, then go back to being public servants.
Silent treatment NEVER gets old!!!
It's pretty there, and the video turned up pretty well also, seems like they're learning, thanks for bringing education to police Phil!
Love the hard work you guys do.. keep up the fight for freedom
how do you guys keep a straight face when doing the silent treatment? lol. love HDCW!
The silent treatment is effective because it thwarts a cop's efforts to draw you into a Q and A. With the average person, the Q and A is the cop's strong point. The Q and A is how cop's dupe people.

silence seems to bother them, if you talk they claim your combative
YES! YES! THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST
HIGH DESERT COMMUNITY WATCH VIDEO, SILENT TREATMENT ARE THE BEST VIDEOS EVER
Philip we need 👕 SHIRTS #SUXITEASY.. OR 🚶 OF SHAME.
OR MY personal favorite 🔖
#we are not here to fulfill people's desires!haha Great work guys.
good video as always.
Great video!!
I like the Silent Treatment. It seems to keep things under control!
SILENT AUDITS ARE ALWAYS THE BEST AUDITS!!
Over staffed, over paid... nothing to do cops. Why aren’t these videos taken to staff and budget meetings. Ridiculous.
I learn so much from just watching how you handle these fools. keep up the good work!
One word in reply and they drag you into a game of 20 questions. One word in reply and you have "voluntarily engaged" with them.
Good job thank you!😀
Had a Customs agent tell me he's not required to give me his name and Badge number because he's a federal agent. How true is this?
I think the first cop to leave said "make sure you get my rights back"...That statement would be so hilarious if it wasn't so sad that that is exactly what you are doing, for all of us and him too...
Cop to the other cop...they are not engaging...how do we exert our authority over them?...what do we do?
Oh God the horror!!!
What a FRICKING great welfare (federal paycheck) check that is, do NOTHING ALL DAY.
So unusual to not hear you put them in there place and your so good at it.
GREAT JOB GUYS
Exposure seems heaps better.
the silent ones are my favs......still say you need shirts saying what youre doing and ust dont talk
Love the silent treatments 👍
Another good clip. Remember, no jaywalking; don't give'em any excuse.
You are doing good work .
I love the silent treatment one's the best it's kind of like being calm around a vicious pitbull
you should try wearing a shirt that reads "journalist" in small letters on one pocket. see if they still ask you for ID during that audit. would be interesting...
all cops have to make sure they tell you what to do . so funny they think they are in charge lol.keep doing your thing bro
Slowly but surely, SOME departments are learning. When cops come out and see what is going on and immediately leave, we will know your goals have succeeded. Not quite there yet but at least these cops showed some maturity and didn't make them or their departments look bad.
I don’t think there’s any reason why he needs four magazines for that one pistol
Funny how the police actually saved the day on this one. Though their intentions may be questionable, the police educated these federal officers, and saved them from possibly violating someone's rights.
All around outstanding video. The silent treatment really did show off these feds being incredibly stupid. But hopefully they learned a lesson, and if all the planets are aligned correctly maybe even support the cause.
Felipe; It's easy to understand their FEAR of your Camera, look how powerful it actually is.
Awesome camera! I could read the time on his watch. It was 12:45 pm.
Sony makes the best noise cancelling headphones for 2018
Congrats-ish to FPS. Would have been full congrats except for the way one of your officers stood in a "ready-for-action" way (2:33 with one fist inside the other hand) in front of the guys with a camera - that should not have happened.

Arrive - Observe - Assess - Decide.
You need to release a "how to audit" training video. Other auditors fail most the time...
Wish you would use the " my mother told me never talk to strangers line ! 😄😄
Wow.. didn't know that was possible. ... They actually educated themselves without your help..
I appreciate and admire what you do, but I don't understand the silent treatment. Either way, thank you for making a difference.
If your not breaking a law, or they cannot tell you waht law you did break...silencencannot loose.
After leon valley... everyone should silent treatment for a log time.
silence will always be the best way to deal with police, they are trained at lying and intimidation. Silence will always win if you are not breaking the law.
Compa this Leo approached you rubbing his knuckles ready to inflict a beat down on you, honestly I thought this encounter was going to end with one sided violence, pero gracias a Dios it didn't happen!
Silence is much better....
I wonder how cops would be if dressed in white shirt, tie, kakis pants, no gun, American flag on shoulder. I would be much more polite than with a commando wannabe....
Good Job👍👍👍
Collective brain power to conclude about the right to film.
I love these pointless, yet entertaining videos.....keep em' coming : )
Hope your grand baby and daughter are good.
Very cool reflection shot through the door of watching the watchmen...lol
@ 1:01 who was that filming you Philip?
THX BROTHER I APPRECIATE YOUR VIDEOS
They must have multiple holes they crawl up out of.
Who needs a mystery novel when you have some !@#$ standing there trying to work out what two guys with cameras are doing,
silence is gold :)).. God bless
Like when you a CG were giving the Camp Parks MP the silent treatment and CG broke the silence and got assaulted. I just don't get the connection between cameras and terrorism. There is absolutely no evidence any terrorist went out before an attack and took video, NONE
Exactly, they wouldn't. The NSA would just monitor potential target google searches.
that flag shot with the sun behind the tree was nice. those building look beautiful and I would think they get photographed s lot. I wish the cops where not talking to you so I could have seen more scenery
It's very entertaining when you engage them but I get a kick out of the silent treatment cuz they just look so baffled lmao
