There is literally no act more constitutionally protected than standing on the steps of city hall saying “God Bless the Homeless Veterans”. How did we arrive here as a country?
he sould change his sign by "Under the first amendment. Speech is allowed on the steps of city hall, during business hours" :D
FEMINISM ... The need to be comfortable over the need to be free
That is a very good question.
Yup. We live in a police state where we’re all assumed to be guilty by default. How is this is a free country?
@@getdowndemon1097 👈 Conservative brain rot. Oh yeah, dude, when I think of the most feminist organizations out there, it's gotta be small town municipality police departments that rarely even have women officers on staff. Brilliant! 🙄🤦
That first cop needs to be fired. He's clearly unable to deal with the public in a polite and courteous manner. He's hopped up on whatever perceived power he believes he has and anyone who challenges that is a threat to him. It's horrific, really.
Also officers should be really encouraged to call out unlawful behavior of their peers, or even punished for not doing so.
bad piggies become bacon.
small town cops seldom have anyone dare to challenge their authority, if the speak they expect compliance. but this was a cop claiming 20 years service in the military and gets a disability pension, but somehow is fit enough to be a cop, something doesn't smell right.
What’s his name?
@@tamtheman2099 One should not judge too quickly. But I tend to agree with you. If he is suffering from PTSD he should not be working in a stressful occupation interacting with the public.
That cop is classic. He is so poorly trained and accustomed to unchecked ego fueled bullying he has no idea that he's actually an evil clown.
I don't think any amount of training will solve the problem here - he is unable to grasp the points - cant do it!
He is used to treating anyone who questions his authority in this way ! He could turn a turn signal violation into an arrest !
I hope he doesn't have children...
He beats his wife, children and kicks his dog. Typical tyrant behavior.
If that tyrant cop has kids child services should investigate. The tyrant is a threat to society,
I think the city's that recognized his rights deserve a award
"IT DOESN'T MATTER"and "I DON'T CARE"... That's EXACTLY the sentiment of cops vs the real law.
Don’t u know anything the cops tell you in that moment is law lol
The guy told him he was a vet. Should’ve replied that he didn’t care hahaha
The “IDC” is what got me. Man claims he is a veteran and took the oath to uphold and defend the constitution but doesn’t care about the 1st Amendment.
@@thatsmrshepardtoyouat this point, i truly beleive the police educate you to not respect the law and fear/oppress the people.
You cant claim youve been a veteran and dont care or like many people in usa (it seems) lie about a past in the military.
It’s hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it’s nearly impossible to win an argument with a dumb person! Well done Jeff.
This is why you should never debate with a dumb person because they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience! 🤔
Never argue with an idiot. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
@@Bubba54321good one
Someone still needs to investigate this cop’s disability claim with the Veterans Administration. I bet he’s lying to the VA to collect extra benefits. How does a disabled veteran get hired as a police officer????
All those silly rules were created to control the former slave population and we know it!!
What pissed him off was when Jeff gave him "two choices." Tyrants hate it when they perceive that THEY are being controlled!
he didn’t even give him any choices though😂 he made a simple statement of 2 facts. that’s all it was. that statement was that he can either violate his constitutional rights or not violate his constitutional rights 😂 that is no way at all telling someone what to do or anything near it. if you can’t determine the difference between that you shouldn’t be a government official
@@Cartier2Shiestynot true in the slightest. You need to Google three words and they are "coy" and "context" and "literal". You can give statements a different meaning than thier literal definition by context.
@babycartier1 This is amongst the more foolish things I've read in awhile.
- "He didn't give him any choices, he just explained the facts between the options and told him to pick one."
And YOU'RE laughing at HIM?
What Christmas song was he didn't know the law and he had no desire to learn that p that piss him off
Don't know the long he just
11:46 - He is collecting a VA cheque for a disability, yet is employed as a police officer? Sounds like there will be a fraud charge coming soon.
CAn we get a petition going or something to bring fraud charges? Surely its illegal what he is doing, claiming disability while being a full time cop, how can that be correct?
probably a clerk that stuck a pencil in his finger
It's not fraud for military to do this, just you or me.
That’s what I said! 😃
You can be employed and collect VA benefits it’s not like social security. No difference in him working at Home Depot (which he should be) and I’m not defending the cop by any means but your comment is unbased.
If we are living in a country where "walking around aimlessly" can be construed as a crime then we are in more trouble then anyone thinks.
Stupid post-9/11 paranoia....Sorry, but just losing a few thousand people and two ugly bui,dings is no reason to create a tyranny....
“Loitering” is a crime that has always been in the books, although enforced by discretion (or discrimination).
@@u.synlig loitering is not a crime
@@5374sethdepends where you are
This guy is a KNOWN frauditor who threatens everyone with lawsuits.
A cop getting his feelings hurt over somebody telling them what he can and can not do is irony at its finest.
He is upset because he is a stolen Valor piece of crap. Such is oinker lies.
Who’s his boss?
@@dirtcurt1We The People of these United States of America
Love when they pull the “you’re being Confrontational” when people are calmly just asserting their rights and they act offended by such a thing.
Yeah once they have that uniform and badge on the moment u don’t bow down and follow their commands no matter how ridiculous and unlawful they can be then Ure been confrontational… 🤦🏻♂️ like if there were ur parents and ure a toddler. Shameful tyrannical behavior for sure.
I don't get why, when citizens pull out a phone and say they will record it, the cops ALWAYS say, "Well I'm recording too." Do they perceive that as some sort of win? It's an indication that we don't trust them to be honest and forthcoming with their own recordings. They always mute things or turn off bodycams when it's convenient for them, or drag their heels handing them out.
The only aggressive/confrontational person I see is the damn cop...
99% of them dont know what Confrontational means
Do as I say or be arrested! Who cares about your Constitutional rights when I tell you how you must act and what you must do. Give me your papers as I bully you some more. Bend over please...
Ever notice how they will scramble at every opportunity to justify their tyranny and never ONCE does it occur to them to apply the same rigor to upholding YOUR rights?
Imagine if police were actually held accountable this wouldnt happen
Imagine of we actually trained competent officers instead of government grunts
@@hefywefy5331Both would help. This pig is quite happy to generate a lawsuit for the city, because he knows damn well he's not going to pay for it.
Make LEOs pay for their own insurance, make them liable for their mistakes and violations, and hold them to at least the same standard as regular people, if not higher.
You mean if they actually understood their oath to uphold the Constitution
@@hefywefy5331good luck. Every police station is hiring and desperate for cops.
@@Tailionis and that leads to lesser training which means more incompetent cops
Yes I know
That's why we need to break the cycle
Pressure the government to train officers with high requirements, Longer and stricter training.
So that the next generation of officers will be better for the public
(but if we're being honest the Government won't do shit)
That cop is not only a disgrace to his profession, but to the human race in general!
No he is not. Joe Biden is a disgrace to America
There are different 'lows'. That officer is lower than dirt, clay, and the most common rocks...
After all, dirt/clay/rocks have many uses, help to build/create/grow many things, and contribute to human civilizations continued development.

As an honorably discharged veteran I am ashamed of Officer Wilder's conduct. On behalf of all true veterans I apologize for his disgusting conduct. Officer Wilder has without a doubt turned his back on every oath that he took.
FOR SURE....ignorance, exposed.
Yea. We don’t claim him.
Thanks for your service, very well said
The bigger question here, really, is WHY? It seems that police are entirely convinced that the public pay them to enforce their ego.
It’s the breaking of the law of Police Hubris.
Tbh, i think a lot of police officers take the job for the wrong reasons. Clearly this officer is one of them because he auditor told him to de-escalate and that pissed him off.
@@cmhsky Years ago during my criminal justice major it was a topic that Do people join the police because they feel comfortable with the strict and authoritarian nature of the job? OR do they get formed by the job into authoritarians because of all the crap they have to deal with everyday?
1) cops DO see an incredible amount of ...well Crap People and situations. They are lied to spit at, shot at, cursed at, maligned for just doing their job, and general shat upon for protecting law and order. It is no wonder that they would develop an attitude of hostility towards people outside their field.
2) Many of the police are prior service, which means they love and crave order and authority. Many are kids of cops or the military which can bring the same idea.
3) Neither of those is complete though and neither is why all police get to that stage.
4) This is a reason to try to understand and reform Policing in the US. We need to remove and replace this attitude with one of public service, and one that aims to protect the public as well as protect the law.
So I would agree with you. There is far more to it than just that, but You are right, the first cop just wanted to deal with a "problem" and did not care about the constitution that he swore at least 1 oath to protect, and possibly 2 depending on the one he swore as a cop as well.
Bingo
Feelings Police, that’s why.
It is mind-blowing that a cop doesn't understand basic constitutional rights; that's like a cook not knowing how to boil water!
🎯
Oh they understand but as the cop stated "he does not care".
Do cops really want to learn the hard way?
The Sad part is it is endemic & prevalent amongst those in governmental positions many of which swear on oath to the Constitution!
To be fair, most chefs (not all), have to go through 2 years of culinary school followed by 5-10 years of intensive training within the particular culinary field they’re pursuing. Though I’m no mathematician, that’s a hell of a lot longer then 6 months of training police officers receive.
11:05 - The cop explicitly tells him to get a lawyer and sue...because the cop isn't afraid of any personal consequences.
Why would he be?
@@bobthetitanicabsolutely! As well as the organization that fosters and condones the actions of their employees.
@maplifiers isn't his immunity gone when it's a violation of the constitution.
@@cyborgrat nope. Unless another government agent has violated someone else's rights in the same exact way and had that violation adjudicated in the courts within the same or a higher jurisdiction then he'll get qualified immunity.
As an actual disabled veteran this assholes bothers me. If he can serve as a police officer, he IS NOT DISABLED.
The game is rigged! 100%!
I guess he could have PTSD or an underlying mental issue, other than his shitty character anyways
They don't cost the *city* thousands; they cost the city's *taxpayers* thousands. And until police officers can be held personally responsible for malfeasance, that isn't going to change.
Yes government doesn’t produce anything, they only take and misappropriate funds.
Bingo. We The People pay when pigs screw up.
@@kevmasengale6903Who ALLOWS THIS VOTER BEHAVIOR ? PAY UP FOR BAD DECISIONS!
And the worse part is the average taxpayers don't know or care.
I think this is an important point that NEEDS to be addressed. When the state has to pay people for damages in court cases, that money should not under any circumstance come from taxpayer money, it should come exclusively from the donations and other sources of revenue they have (because make no mistake, the city does have actually sources of revenue, not just tax dollars). It is fundamentally wrong to use taxpayer money to pay individuals or groups for damages caused by the government because that is not a "punishment," that is just a redistribution of tax funds which hurts their entire taxpayer population.
This is a very very dangerous cop. He needs to be fired right away.
Dangerous isn’t the right word I’d use maybe dangerously ignorant 🤷🏾♂️
@@Ph4r4oh_444g Definitely dangerous. This was never about the law for that creature, this was about being challenged. Like any wild beast, Wilder will lash out when being challenged - this time, the creature's victim did comply. Next time, a weapon might be drawn.
I was very happy to hear that Wilder is disabled. Sadly, not crippled.
A lot of cops are trained to do things like this. Which means it's not a problem with the cop, it's a fundamental problem with the system. Police officers are lead to believe that they can violate the US Constitution and not only is it ok for them to do so, it's part of their responsibility as a LEO. The solution is to end all forms of Immunity and start cracking down hard on every cop who violates a citizen's rights. The training WILL change because it will become far too expensive for it not to.
All cops act like this. You know what most people would do when this cop rolls up and tells you to leave? They get up and leave. Regardless of if they have a legal right to do so or not, most people just listen to whatever they say because they are cops. And this is why cops think they have more authority than they actually do. Since most people just kneel and lick their boots they expect everyone to do it. And anyone who challenges their authority is seen as breaking the law in their eyes when in reality, the cop is the one breaking the law. This is an issue with police all around the country.
He’s also a Stolen Valor
Wilder should be fired immediately, as a citizen I’m so sick of these people being law enforcement using their own personal opinions as laws. The arrogance of the officers is a plague on society
@@CafELittERaire your opinions are sadly misinformed and incorrect.
Exactly. He makes himself the law and the judge.
I doubt if he even talked to the mayor.
@@CafELittERaireso engaging in one of the most fundamental freedoms we possess in this country means jack shit to you? Got it.
He; at a minimum; should be behind bars for life.
@@CafELittERaireyou clearly didn't watch the whole video.
He collects a VA check for being disabled but works as a police officer (a physically and mentally demanding job)? Wtf?
In a society where "ignorance of the law is no excuse," why do so many LEOs insist that the citizens are ignorant of the law? Power-tripping is seen too frequently in these encounters.
Ignorance of the law is no excuse should be applied to both parties, not just citizens.
Tyrannts enforcing "rules for thee, but not for me"
Thats why the cops need to be held to the same standards.
Accountability is a two wat street.
What’s up with these cops who think their little badges outweigh the constitution?? Where are they finding these cops??
I think it's proof of "failure to train". Why on Earth would these cops be SO wrong about the law unless they are being trained improperly?
To be a Pennsylvania state trooper now, you only need a GED or High School Diploma and a driver’s license. That’s how bad it’s gotten where I live anyway.
A lot of departments hire lower IQ individuals so as to have staff that do not critically think and blindly obey orders, also those with higher IQs are more likely to end up quitting due to boredom of internal corruption.
@@crinklecut3790as a PA resident, I can attest to this. PSP are a tyrannical gang of road pirates.

They don't want us bringing up the constution, it's on purpose not an accident.
So tyrants ? And what we do with tyrants ? Well, it depends on yourselves.
@@Anuisgodso how many times did you VOTE?? 😂😂😂
you can actually trespass from a public place as well. You can be asked to leave the public property because a person or an organization that has control over that public place has the right to ask you to leave.
They hate the public. Some LEOs are happy when innocent people are killed and it makes them laugh out loud.
This is shameful and embarrassing. No one should ever go to this town for fear of being arrested for standing somewhere too long.
There are SEVERAL towns in Mississippi exactly like this. The town I grew up in people expect to be pulled over on a weekly basis and never end up with an actual ticket. I’ve been pulled over 10 different times in Columbia and have never been issued a ticket. “You’re going 5 under.” “It’s late.” “Your car has damage on it.” These are actual reasons that were cited to me for pulling me over.
Nobody should go to Mississippi anyways.
The fact the officer is a vet and doesn’t care about the constitution is so concerning they need to be trained early on laws and constitution rights and physical training we have far too many tyrant officers that make things up as they go and get these cities sued for millions is insane we need more training and re fresher courses yearly or at least bi yearly
As a vet he will have been I indoctrinated to follow orders and as such he can't deal with civilians, military people should never be police, the personalities required are too far apart.
And a uneducated Sargeant...
It's a disgrace. Being a Veteran myself, it makes me wonder what the tyrant is getting disability from the VA for. If he is rated for PTSD at all, he should be retired from the force immediately. His feelings got hurt and he pushed his weight around, threateningly I might add too. Too many times have I found other Veterans in positions of authority usurping it, and abusing it. He acted exactly like a modern drill sergeant would it seems. Military style rule for the people...
The way he said it and the way he acted made it clear to me he probably did a 4 year reservist contract in a POG job and never deployed, leaving after 4 years as a PFC in the 1990s.
Training or refresher courses cannot change the essence of a person, their personality, ego, beliefs or integrity. That takes on-going counseling on how to first be a better human being.
I had an experience similar to this a few months ago with the same police department. I was walking my two dogs on the public sidewalk near the beach. An officer stopped on the road, got out and told me “no dogs allowed on the beach”. I did see the signs that prohibited dogs on the beach, which is why I chose to stay on the sidewalk. When I mentioned being on the sidewalk, he immediately started yelling at me in an aggressive manner. I told him I would leave, went back to my car and got the hell out of there. This department seems to have a problem with freedom.
UNFORTUNATELY...WHILE I UNDERSTAND WHY YOU LEFT AND PROBABLY WOULD HAVE DONE THE SAME TO AVOID CONFLICT WITH A FOOL, THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT. THE COP ABUSED YOUR RIGHTS AND SO MANY OF US GO ALONG WITH IT TO AVOID ARREST.
@@sydnidowney3598 for sure. I honestly don’t know if I could have done anything differently. He was on me so fast that I really didn’t have time to react.

As a military vet, we do not claim him 🙅♂️. He lost his humanity in the trenches.
He needs to be investigated for collecting a disability check while working as a police officer.
@@ianbattles7290let me caveat I don't claim to be the smartest guy ever but I noticed the same thing. If you're truly handicapped that you need to collect money then how are you a cop that is a physically demanding job.
Damn right we don't!
@@ianbattles7290there are varying levels of VA disability and it can be claimed for as little as hearing loss. You don’t have to be fully disabled and incapable of working to claim disability. Others are at 100% for PTSD, depression, anxiety, and/or other strictly mental issues as the result of their service which may or may not disqualify them from certain jobs.
Of all the things this tyrant did, that’s probably the most likely to be legitimate.
@ianbattles7290 what I find strange is that he did 20 years military and isn't collecting retirement.
Imagine sitting in a park, relaxing and then being arrested for "loitering" after 30 mins 😂 😂 That's the stupidity of that loitering rule
It’s one of those catch all ordinances so cops can remove undesirables. They couldn’t call it “existing in public”, because that sounds too unreasonable even to staunch boot lickers.
I had cops roll up their cars on the grass of a public park that was a 30 second walk from my house because I was sitting there in the evening. I needed space alone because a friend had just died and I wanted a quiet, outdoor space where I could sit with my thoughts away from my home and my housemate. Apparently a gazebo in a completely empty public park I was paying taxes on is forbidden.
Neither cop even came out of their car to talk to me or see if I was okay. They just rolled up two cop cars over the park grass, and I walked back to my house in frustration. They didn't even roll down their windows to talk to me when I walked past their still-moving cars. They just made eye contact and I guess decided not to arrest me because I clearly wasn't homeless or dealing drugs. It was so surreal and disrespectful. Can't believe people can't just sit at a park if they want. Some free country we have here.
I’d encourage everyone to read their cities “ordinances”. You generally won’t have to go far to find some unconstitutional bs in there.
Sounds like it's a roundabout way of making homelessness illegal.
Good work jeff, god bless our vets
Officer Wilder isn't just a terrible cop, in that moment he was also a terrible person. How heartless do you have to be as a human being to kick someone off public property for saying "God bless the homeless vets"? Like, screw homeless vets, I guess?
This cop had one problem, and one problem only: Jeff wasn't submissive and obedient.

Law enforcement is at an all time low. There should be a civil rights test that All police have to pass in order to enforce Laws.
Exactly. Auditors are like mystery shoppers.
I would go further and say there should be an annual test on the US Constitution that every LEO must pass every single year to reup their certification. That way if they violate a citizen's rights, the plaintiff's attorney can point to the most recent test on file and ask the question: "How did you not know?" This can provide evidence of willful neglect or even intentional violation.
@jonathonmcglew4992
Now now, don't be silly the legislators and government cash wasters wouldn't want police knowing people's rights as they then could not order them to breach them and they would jump to do it.
Why have a test to be an officer of the law when they do not keep or honor the OATH to the US Constitution they took when becoming a police officer?
Oh, they'll pass the test easily enough to get the badge. The problem is they forget it, ignore it, or in a work culture that pressures them to violate what they know to be the right thing. What *should* happen is mandatory re-training/re-education on civil rights and constitutional rights at *least* twice a year. And they wouldn't have to hire an expensive consultant with an extensive curriculum: just choose a handful of videos from this channel!
Wait, he collects a disability check but is able to be a cop?!? 😳 seriously?
Try and make it make sense? If they catch anyone on disability in my state lifting more then 25 pounds, they will remove your disability benefits. I should be considered disabled, but I found the restrictions and hoops they make you jump through, not to be worth the effort. I broke 8 vertebrae in a car accident back in 2008 and suffered permanent nerve and spinal cord damage. I just work part time and run a tiny tea business on my family farm. Some days I can put 6-8 hours of hard work, while others I am unable to get out of bed. I barely get by and this guy gets to collect disability benefits and a cushy police salary. It makes me sick to my stomach that he’s allowed to receive such benefits when it’s clear he can work in full capacity as a police officer.
VA disability is different. Unless he has 100% Individual Unemployability status, he's allowed to work.
@@mrmarcus8705they should call it something else then because disabled has a meaning.
@@lordchaa1598 not only a cushy salary but that exceptional benefit/retirement package that takes care of them as if they are corporate ceo's
Maybe he has a _mental_ disability that would prevent him from holding a job that involves using his intellect. His current position doesn't seem to conflict with that stipulation, and he's avoiding any intellectual prowess with distinction.
Both of these officers proved Sam Clemens point when he said, "It's better to keep one's mouth closed and be thought to be a fool than open it and remove all doubt".
That isn't a Veteran, that's a TYRANT. Shame on him. Good Job Jeff.
And being a veteran and an LEO means he took an oath to defend the constitution AT LEAST twice.
One doesn't preclude the other.
I hate to say it, but plenty of veterans are tyrants. "Protecting freedom" is more propoganda than reality, and many of them are very opinionated on precisely what your freedoms are and are not. Generally speaking, they are more indoctrinated to follow orders than "protect freedom." We need to quit the hero worship. Some deserve that status, but many don't.
Condolences and prayers for any family and children he rules over in HIS castle...
4 days ago the police chief retired after 39 years. Officer Gill received a promotion at that time to Sergeant. That internal review must be going really well.
Gotta keep the meddling rights activists in their place am I right? This is why police departments can't change through regulation. Their inherent function is like an occupying force against hostile forigeners. It's pretty much "only we matter. Fuck anyone who challenges us because we are inherently the good guys.
Cops aren't here to serve the public in any regard. They're here to harass us, Intimidate us, steal our belongings and money, beat or kill non complying citizens, and arrest people out of boredom.
I'd say whatever "review" was given was rather _typical!_ (Y)our Government at _work,_ you know.
“We’ve investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing”
Yeah if my peers investigated me for misconduct I’m sure they’d find no wrongdoing as well. It’s criminally biased.
Old cop says he is collecting cheques from the VA for his disability, and yet he is fully employed. I think that should be investigated further.
That’s not unusual. Disabilities don’t necessarily need to stop the person from working, or be readily apparent. They can be things that effect the individual’s daily life or their enjoyment of daily life (PTSD for example). Those are often referred to as “invisible disabilities” because the individual outwardly appears fine. It’s also common for veterans to not realize they qualified for disability from the VA and receive back pay many years later, or be forced into a medical discharge and receive disability as a form of severance pay. It’s really not as strange as you might think for someone to receive VA disability and still be fully employed.
@@SchmittySchfin you took my point the complete opposite direction. If he has an invisible disability, One that may alter his perception or anger control, It may not be a good idea for him to be a cop. Or he has fooled the VA and then they should take back every dime.
So they are collecting injury pay? Rather than collecting full I-can't-work disability pension?
Collecting a check for “disability” and holding another full time job is complete bullshit. Shouldn’t be a thing in the US. Either you’re disabled or able to work, not both. That cop is a scumbag parasite.
He could be rated at 10% for tinnitus, thereby receiving a check from the VA.

Just another piece of crap. Probably butt buddies with his stolen Valor cop friend.
Cops were just lying
I highly doubt anyone actually called. Police are allowed to (as upheld by the supreme court), and even encouraged and directly trained to, lie to you at every step of any investigation where they think lying to you will benefit them.
Standing in front of city hall in a political demonstration is literally the first thing that comes to mind when you think of the first amendment.

Jeff is such a kind wholesome man. It makes me terribly aggravated watching how poorly police treat him on a regular basis.
Please take them to court.
11:46 he collects a check for being “disabled” but is fit enough to be a police officer. Something isn’t adding up.
Scamming the VA while taking home 3 separate incomes
quitely made. we in this country have way to many boys being stupid police😮
Yeah was thinking that myself.
No, it makes sense. We are paid for disabilities as in less ability to use a part, constant pain, things that will shorten our lives. It's a part of the contract we sign when we enlist or are commissioned in the military. If they break us, we get paid for it if is adversely effects the rest if our lives.
It's also hard to get the VA to honor that contract.
@@johnmichaels4330then he is not fit to be a police officer, it really is simple. He can sit at a desk and get paid a lesser wage. If he is truly disabled he is not the best officer to be out there on field duty, period.
One of the most harmless and calm protests I've ever seen. Are there not actual criminals to look out for?
They already have badges in that town.
The local meth cookers and rapists aren't trying to take away the police's authority to harass innocent civilians for no reason, so the police has deemed them not a threat.
@@cyborgrat They really are just state sponsored gangs aren’t they?
That arrogant cop said If I am violating your civil rights then go ahead and sue me. Mr Gray , call his bluff and place him before the courts and sue the shit out of the city. Sadly any win in court would be paid for by the taxpayers of the city and not out of the cop’s pension.
And the more people catch onto this, the more they’ll call for qualified immunity to be ended. I’d rather have my tax dollars go towards a victim of a civil rights violation than to the tyrant pigs who violate people’s rights daily.

"You can protest but only for 30 minutes" can you imagine if that was really the law? These cops are a mockery to the force
I really like this auditor’s approach of not escalating just for a more exciting video. He clearly cares more about educating police than getting a video. Well done!
Jeff is seasoned and is tactfully obtaining incriminating statements on video from the asshole cop that could be used in a civil courtroom. I hope he sues and wins big.
Jeff is an amazing person. Standing up for our civil rights at the expense of his own safety and freedom.
Thanks for spreading the word
After Vietnam, I was a homeless veteran for a time. I went looking for an old comrade but he had died from exposure to Agent Orange. I was just minding my business, but the corrupt local sheriff tried running me out of town. He put me in jail on charges of vagrancy, resisting arrest, and possessing a concealed knife. His deputies let it all happen. It triggered my PTSD and I snapped, fought my way out and escaped into the woods. They tried hunting me down with rifles, dogs, and a helicopter, but I used my deadly skills to eliminate them one by one.
Eventually they called in my former commanding officer, Colonel Sam Trautman. But it was just a ploy to get my guard down while they tried blowing up the mine I was holed up in.
I had to shed more blood then, because long story short, ACAB.
You’re right. Anyone that supports him, and the vets, should wear a GBTHV shirt same day every week. The shirt sales can be a fundraiser for homeless vets. I RETIRED from the Navy and I have a place to live now but some days I fear I may get too much anxiety and that I will be out in the woods living.

VA disability isn't the same as SSI/SSDI. It's compensation due to injuries or conditions caused by or exacerbated by military service. He could be 0% service connected all the way up to 100% connected and none of it would have to be physical.
@@tygibbs15still seems like policing is the wrong career choice.
He's a government employee, you're government property, what's the difference?
Actually, the VA is about to crack down on the phony VA compensation. As an actual disabled vet ( Pulmonary Fibrosis, full body nerve damage, and torn ligaments in both knees during Desert Shield) the VA was giving away 100% to people running a scam. Hopefully if the douche-Stach is on comp he has it removed and reversed, which I believe is what will happen. I see way too many dudes playing golf and getting 100% while people missing limbs fight for 20%, @@tygibbs15
I like that Officer Wilder did whatever he could to make this whole thing about him. He had to make sure to mention that HE was a vet, that HE served for civil liberties for twenty years. Well all those years and he never understood the slightest bit of it. My bar for police officers is low in general, but Officer Wilder will most assuredly be the center of a lawsuit one day. Pathetic.
"I know what the Constitutional says". I'm skeptical about that since he doesn't seem to know what it's called.

@fintybadmanjunior What does it mean to take your morning constitutional?
A “morning constitutional” meant a morning walk (good for the constitution/health). It was kind of an upper class or educated phrase, though. Then people started using it facetiously to mean a morning dump, as a way to disguise what they're doing and to make themselves sound more educated.

This shithole city doesn’t have hundreds of thousands of dollars to lose. Just look at the janky ass used police car and 3 room city hall they have.
If the mayor and city council do a little kicking of asses, then mission accomplished.
The shitty thing is those hundreds of thousands of dollars will come from the taxpayers in a small community. With 10% of their population living below the poverty line. Unfortunately due to the actions of this police department - which IS the fault of the local government - the local population will suffer more in lack of funding for other local needs. Sucks.

The first officer needs to be fired and blacklisted immediately, and the second demoted and retrained on a probationary basis.
Absolute embarrassments to their department and your country.
I hope Mr Grey takes legal action against the department, city and especially Wilder personally. Maybe being stripped of his pension, house and false valour will start his reeducation.
Mr Gray perfectly baits these guys to show their true colors. He lets them make an assumption, act on that assumption, and actually invent crimes he’s committed meanwhile all he says is god bless the homeless veterans. It’s actually a brilliant way to do things.
the fact that it’s even “bait,” really says a lot
he doesn't bait them at all. He just goes to express perfectly normal protected speech in traditional public forums, for the most part.
He is absolutely baiting them by being deliberately vague. If he had answered the cop with "I'm showing my support for homeless veterans." when he was asked what he was doing, then I would agree with him. Since he refused to answer what his purpose for being there was, then the police officer was forced to infer what his intentions were based on his experience.

His disability is probably emotionally related. The very thing he needs to be able to control for his full time Job. Sigh.
@@theradicalpeasant it doesn't always mean physically disabled, but could be PTSD, or maybe he gets migraines now, etc.

@@MrKillerToad While I agree that it can be physically or mentally, and also that there are disability percentages.

Both of these officers are. Let’s hope they meet a healthy dose of lead one day. Words may not seem dangerous but thsi right here is.

The officer wasn't reprehensible. He was doing his job, restoring public peace and order for the community.
The auditor was trying to catch him in a Constitutional trick bag taken out of context. The officer knew his job, but not clear on his full authority on Constitutional protected activities. Based on "reasonableness" the officer was solidified in trying to restore what any reasonably thinking citizen would consider, normal activity.

Funny how the guy sticking up for his basic rights is the one who is out of control and confrontational and “what I can’t and can’t do”. Little man had his little ego hurt for being wrong. Acted like a diva. Told the guy to leave, then wouldn’t let him leave lol. Cmon
Who gave these gangsters the power, guns and 💵?? GODS?? 😂😂
It's that mentality that "every person is wrong except you" that makes officers into horrible people. I guarantee you if Gray was dressed in a suit and was well cleaned, that the officer wouldn't dare treat him like some bum.
Unfortunately they let a lot of horrible people become police officers
Weird how the 1st officer served in the military and was sworn to protect the constitution but doesn't even know some of its basic points. Hopefully Jeff files a lawsuit that either gets this guy some education or terminates him.
That cop is an embarrassment as a cop, as a vet, and as a US citizen.
Wilder has way too big of an ego to be a good cop. We all wish that these ego-driven cops could be weeded out of the ranks across the country but we know that is never going to happen.
What sucks is that he's a Sgt.
He is a wildling.
What do you prefer? A load of cops that easily back down and aren't driven at all?
There's nothing wrong with ego. This remained verbal and largely respectful seeing as how the guy really wasn't bothered about pissing the cop off.
He even told him to de-escalate, meaning he knew that HE himself was escalating it - which he was.
Reading his sign after being told "What are you doing" isn't an answer. The sentence on that sign isn't a 'doing' action.
It's a claim that he thinks a mythical supernatural figure should bless homeless vets.
And what does that even mean? That he thinks his 'god' is leaving them out? If they are homeless I guess they're not being blessed. So he's asking god to do it? The ego on him right?
The sign was pointless and meaningless, only the sentiment remains.
The guy had nothing better to do with his day than try to provoke reactions from cops/people in different places.
@@CMDRRustyDog When exercising your rights is perceived as attempting to provoke reactions from police, you are living in an authoritarian society. The police should walk right by these people and mind their business, until they witness someone doing something that is in fact unlawful.
He collects veteran disability while working for the police (the job most likely to retrigger any ptsd, put him in similar scenarios, etc.). Same motherfucker complains about social welfare helping all the mooches i guarantee it. People like this piss you off, using and abusing to get whatever they want and always thinking they know whats right and wrong. His ego is so massive im sure his wife(?) feels it everyday
If Jeff Gray doesn't sue Ocean Springs for their gross ignorance of the Constitution, then I will never watch another one of his videos. I certainly hope that if he doesn't keep us informed of the outcome, you, Audit the Audit, will do so.
I hate control freaks. He literally said he "doesn't care" that Jeff is exercising his rights. Cop needs to be arrested.
Don't be ridiculous. What would be the crime?
The guy said he didn't care if he was pissing the cop off. Do you think that doesn't count for anything?
Then he asked the cop to de-escalate a situation that he himself was escalating.
It seems that you, like many others, are pre-conditioned to take the side against the cops and over-dramatise the situation.
The cop was hardly being a tyrant. Jeez.
" Why do I have to Leave?" " Because I said so" . Thats really sums it all up.

@@temporaryscarsI kind of agree,,if you are going to audit you have to GO ALL THE WAY,and means getting arrested if need be.
It's honestly terrifying to see video footage of police officers that treat law abiding citizens like this. Mr. Gray did everything right, followed all of the laws, and was respectful in doing so.

When the cop said "I am a veteran myself" I felt he wanted to say "but I pull myself by my boot sraps and aint broke."
12:38 is so painful. This new cop is in an impossible position. He knows the guy is right, but he's never going to walk over to the more experienced officer and say "you're making a mistake, you need to back down", so instead he joins the charade.
This is why I don't think the second cop (Gill) deserves an F. I think he deserves a C-. His base was they were called about solicitation, which is fair, but the first cop should've came up saw he wasn't asking for money and left. Gill at least remained calm and tried to explain his side of things.
He performed some mental calculus and decided that joining the violation of Jeff's civil rights was less risky than disagreeing with one of his brothers in blue. That's a huge problem, but that's also the standard culture in every LE agency nationwide.
