This is why people are losing respect for the police...

[RossGReds]

Yes he does. He's looking for a reaction and he's got it. In a heightened time of terrorist attacks the guys a moron for 'auditing' a police station.

Like I say no wonder the country is in a mess with the current woke brigade

Terrorists attack civilians, not the police. Shall we just outlaw photography everywhere?

 

[XeNoN89]

Deserves to be detained and kneed for lawfully filming a publicly funded building? Awesome.

Absolutely, his goal was to antagonise the police and he got the exact response he deserved.

Where have you been the last few years lol? A few police have been attacked and killed by terrorists recently.

 

[Ayahuasca]

Why would anyone want to be a policeperson and have to deal with nobbers like this.

 

[Zatoichi.uK]

Lol what a muppet. Happy Xmas you idiot.

Right, sorry silly me I forgot terrorists only attack civilians, must brush up on the terrorist rule book

And no we shouldn't outlaw photography; this guy was dealt with proportionately

So what was his main intention for doing the "video"
To get a reaction
Mission accomplished - I have no sympathy for people who seek to do things like this. Enough crap to deal with without this idiot deciding he has nothing better to do

 

[Brizzles]

lawfully filming a publicly funded building? Awesome.

Or filming the busy and quiet activity times, easy access routes, number of staff on premises - all useful info for a terror attack.

He wasn't just admiring the architecture

When was the last terrorist attack on a police station? Anything he filmed you could no doubt see on google maps anyway.

You don't understand the difference between a static image and video showing movement of personnel?

There have been many terror attacks on police stations, last one was 4 days ago in Pakistan.

Losing respect for the police? I'm hopeful that the video is a sign of things to come, if only all police took that approach with time wasting no marks like that.

The point of audits is to exercise rights.

It is perfectly legal to film public officials in the course of their duties in public, these are tax funded employees who serve the public.

Any persons exercising legal activities do not need to account for their actions. You can film any person or structure from a publicly accessible area.

Ok, that's the legal stuff out the way, these 'auditors' are not doing anything illegal and do not need to provide ID or answer any questions pertaining to a legal activity.

So... right now these people are testing the boundaries of the system and seeing if their rights are being respected. Sometimes they are, sometimes they're not.

The point is say the government/authorities/police do something, enact a law, create restrictions that you feel goes against the public interest. If we lose the right to film them they can't be held accountable, that's the reason for these often boring videos.

Sure the person may need to 'get a life' and some are only doing it to provoke a reaction so they can those 'youtube viewz' but the underlying reasons are worth fighting for.

Here's a guy who does a better job of these things:

This one is interesting because everything's fine till the boss comes out:

Public officials need to remember who they are paid by and who they serve. The majority are great and providing a valuable service but there are more than a few 'bad eggs' who create the us & them tension.

I don't think you know what an audit is.

 

[Hagar]

The thing is that these taxpayers frequently aren't and would not know a proper job if it smacked them in the face.

 

[Brizzles]

Why not post this video from his own pathetic site, where the Police are perfectly reasonable and he is a complete dick ( again )

 

[XeNoN89]

Sounds like these audit morons are another group of absolute oxygen thieves like the 'freeman of the land' and magna carta retards

 

[Dirk Diggler]

Exactly, he couldn't even narrate the video for yawning. No way does that waste of space have a tax paying job.

Were you the one recording the video by chance?

 

[jpaul]

sounds like the same attitude as the people of colour - female mp(Dawn something,?) and the athletes, filming, and performing for the camera obstreperously, on the police car stops;
dashcam vigilantes can be probably be binned with them too ?
