The Michigan Supreme Court has overturned the conviction of a man found guilty of fleeing from Kalamazoo police officers, a ruling that is expected to change how Michigan officers articulate reasonable suspicion. (July 23, 2024)

    This became a fluff piece once a law enforcement interview began. Thousands of hours of news coverage, court cases, activist videos, and driver dash cam videos are published each week to social media showing officers with a paper-thin understanding of where their authority begins or ends. You could test every single law enforcement agent in Michigan, and I guarantee they would fail one simple fact of the overused Terry v Ohio stops. It is two-pronged - the Terry Stop and the Terry Search. The number of lives ruined because of a traffic stop is astounding. Lost wages, lost jobs, and lost savings since we are financially responsible where law enforcement is not. So two points (if a person's finances permit), 1. the purchase of a dash camera with date-time-speed-coordinates is money well spent, and 2. phone apps like Attorney Shield with a few dollars a month subscription fee is again money well spent. Remember police/sheriff are permitted to lie and often do. Having dash cam evidence and an attorney available 24x7 to interact on your behalf when stopped may save you from financial and emotional ruin.
  • Exercising your rights is dangerous.. tells you everything you need to know about he American Police State
  • @HazelwithaZ
    Grateful to this guy for pushing his case all the way through. Shouldn't be this hard to exercise and defend our rights.
  • @gazoo5248
    this should've never even happened. Didn't need the supreme court. No reasonable suspicion OF A CRIME, no detainment. Stupid cops, stupid courts. This should ALREADY be known.
  • Here's what YOU need to know. The Bill of Rights isn't a list rights granted to you by the government. It is a list of restrictions on the government placed there by the people. WE the people.
  • @ygrittesnow1701
    The scariest statement in this whole video is, "Exercising your rights can put you in harms way." How does that not scare the #$@ out of everyone?
  • @Lisa-vd5vu
    SCOTUS ruled over fifty years ago on this in Terry v Ohio(1968) that police may stop someone only when they have Reasonable Articulable Suspicion of a crime either having been, being, or about to be committed. This has been established law for a long time and cops still don’t know when they can and can’t detain someone. The trainer mentioned that police have to be trained on many things but Terry is easily the important thing they should be learning. Disgusting.
  • @lostmysoul1595
    What's crazy is that law enforcement officers don't know the laws that they're enforcing
  • @maxdamage4259
    instead of advising the public to just give up your rights so you wont get injured by the police...tell the police that if they violate someones rights and injure them ..that they will do hard time behind bars.
  • @user-jr9mq7mt8v
    Where do we go for us who have been wrongfully convicted for situations similar? Knowing the information being given and having this with police being put in a spotlight.
  • @georgejones3526
    The Constitution giveth rights and the Supreme Court taketh them away, piece by piece.
  • @KFish-bw1om
    0:22 - False, the US Constitution does not give the citizens anything. Your rights are endowed by your Creator, and the US Constitution recognizes those rights and explicitly prohibits the government from infringing upon them. The reason we got to this place where the government and its agents think that they can run roughshod over our rights as they please, is because of widespread misunderstanding of these basic fundamental truths about our constitutional republic. So let's correct the record at every chance we get.
  • @SreyAun-sd1eb
    No more comply. We are way beyond that. Time for citizen safety to override officer safety.
  • @ctcanine
    Yeah, take your case to court…. if you have millions and millions of dollars and many years
  • So sounds like everything the YouTubers have been showing on their 🎥 videos for past few years .
  • @hunny___
    I’m sure they’ll learn absolutely nothing.
  • @ronjohnson9032
    So the one guy says officer safety overrides public safety?🤔
  • @opforwarrior
    Training to skirt the law is the problem. Allowing police to lie during an investigation is the moral mis-step. This is not a police state.
  • My understanding is cops have ti have responsible articulable suspicion of a crime to detain. They cant detain for " we wanna look into you and have no reason besides suspicious". Glad Michigan SC held thay right up. Perhaps better law enforcement training over years instead of weeks would help out
