Ian, have you considered asking the cop who claimed you guys are taking things out of context for an on-camera one-on-one discussion with him where you will not edit it? He seems like someone who could have some seeds of free thought planted in his mind in a less confrontational situation.

Ian, your demeanor and questions were absolutely brilliant. Thank you.

OK then.

The deputies and other badge wearing individuals are practicing for the "Nurenburg Defense." Which is to say the "I was only following orders" defense, as remonstrated in 1946 in Nurenburg.

It would seem that an unknown personality, with a "press pass" that is nonconfrontational would be best. The footage sought would be obtained, and the end would be desirable.

Enjoy the Fall, Folks.

People like SUN, AMAZED, and ENDGAME go right on showing the beast how much they love it, believing that their loyalty is a lucky charm against its depradations. They'll happily throw family members into its jaws (the daughter raped by a cop, the nephew beaten for smoking marijuana), all the while saying how sad they are, while inwardly patting themselves on the back for their thrice-admirable obedience in deed, word, and thought.

But the fact is, eventually, they're going to run up against that beast themselves. Maybe the hyper-inflation will eat up that carefully planned retirement and they'll be out on the street; maybe a bored cop will get a notion to use them for clubbing practice; maybe a computer glitch or chance misstatement will send a SWAT team to their home.

And damn us for the fools we are, when that happens, it'll be us hated Free Staters who'll be right there supporting them in their virtually futile struggle for justice.

Just wait and see . . .

Sorry “Sam” but you come across as a whiny little bitch in this video. Like you’re the king of the frikking world or something.

I didn't realize that the king of the world is the only person allowed in PUBLIC courtrooms.

And you call that “assault”? Are you joking? Because one of them touched you? Are you a three year old girl or something?

If Sam had done the same to one of the police officers there, he probably would have been charged with assault.

Fight or Flight? Those criticizing Sam are the latter. Sam, people like YOU will get freedom restored. The rest of you, may your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.

You have to keep in mind, if you were to touch one of the cops (for example, a tap on the shoulder or a hug), it would be considered assault. I demand equal protection.

Ian, I marvel at your composure. I was concerned about Sam, but damned if I wouldn't feel and act the same if they started literally pushing me around as well. I doubt I have the level of self-control to directly confront people like that.

Also, I REALLY hope that camera is insured well.

I also agree with andreas. But that didn't happen here. Our frustrated camera crew (sam @ ian) were clearly outnumbered.

Sure, losing one's cool during an encounter like that is unfortunate. It's also extremely easy to say that from the sidelines. Way to stick up for yourselves.

The camera is indeed the new gun…
