- 0:08Speaker 1: I can avoid this. Oh my gully bodycam video from
- 0:18Speaker 1: the Columbus, Ohio Police Department. Here is the long story
- 0:22Speaker 1: made short. This collection of really sad sack misfits are
- 0:29Speaker 1: protesting homeless sweeps by setting up a tent on the
- 0:35Speaker 1: city attorney's lawn at his or her home. I don't
- 0:41Speaker 1: like that, the homeowner. She calls the cops. The cops
- 0:45Speaker 1: show up and are trying to deal with this. Their
- 0:49Speaker 1: patience and kindness is astonishing, as is the lameowness of
- 0:58Speaker 1: the young activists. Good god man, the star of this
- 1:03Speaker 1: show is the young woman who makes it utterly clear
- 1:10Speaker 1: over and over again, is the liaison with the group,
- 1:15Speaker 1: in the style of some of the campus protests right
- 1:18Speaker 1: where you know they would surround somebody with a camera
- 1:20Speaker 1: and shove them away, or you'd ask them a question
- 1:23Speaker 1: that they say, I'm not the spokesperson. You have to
- 1:25Speaker 1: talk to our spokesperson. Be like I just asked you
- 1:27Speaker 1: why you're here. You need to talk to our spokesperson.
- 1:30Speaker 1: That's a thing with the neo Marxist youngsters anyway, we'll

- 2:00Speaker 2: So here's the thing that the property owner doesn't want
- 2:04Speaker 2: them on their property. Okay, Okay, So now there's an
- 2:06Speaker 2: officially there's a trespass notice. I'll talk to you because
- 2:09Speaker 2: you say that you're the liaison to them. If you
- 2:12Speaker 2: can tell them they can just move right over to
- 2:15Speaker 2: this this piece of grass right here, that's public property. Okay,
- 2:18Speaker 2: but the property owner of this particular address no longer
- 2:21Speaker 2: wants them on their property.

- 2:41Speaker 7: going to talk to them directly and hopes they listen
- 2:43Speaker 7: to me to avoid an arrest, because we don't want
- 2:46Speaker 7: to arrest them. We want them to obey the law
- 2:48Speaker 7: and leave this property.
- 2:50Speaker 4: Like I said before, I'm the police laison. So anything
- 2:52Speaker 4: that you want to tell them, tell me, I will
- 2:55Speaker 4: tell them.
- 2:55Speaker 7: And we have We've already explained it to you and
- 2:57Speaker 7: they're not listening to you, is what I'm saying.
- 3:00Speaker 3: Yah.
- 3:00Speaker 4: So, like I said before, if there is anything that
- 3:03Speaker 4: you want to tell them, you can talk to me
- 3:05Speaker 4: and I will say to them.
- 3:07Speaker 6: Okay, So is there anything that you want to talk
- 3:08Speaker 6: to right now?
- 3:09Speaker 3: For me to They need to leave. They're going to
- 3:10Speaker 3: be placed und arrest.
- 3:14Speaker 4: You guys have been even told by.
- 3:18Speaker 1: The close officer. They're all standing right next to the tent.
- 3:22Speaker 6: You are being told that you must go or else
- 3:33Speaker 6: you must go. You are going to be under arrests.
- 3:43Speaker 3: Thank you. Okay, all right.
- 3:52Speaker 1: Now, I'm going to hit you in the head with
- 3:54Speaker 1: a except the cops don't.
- 3:56Speaker 5: They're unbelievable, the officials. You've said that a number of times.
- 4:03Speaker 5: I didn't realize they're standing that close. Oh you're talking
- 4:07Speaker 5: where everybody everything. Apparently she just turns her head says,
- 4:10Speaker 5: the police say, yeah.
- 4:12Speaker 3: I know I heard.
- 4:13Speaker 1: It's precisely what's happened. Yes, So it's like a portlandy
- 4:18Speaker 1: a bit.
- 4:18Speaker 5: She always sounds like that female comedian rock girl that
- 4:23Speaker 5: that is on Portlandy.
- 4:26Speaker 1: I said, the police are saying that. Yeah, I know,
- 4:28Speaker 1: I'm standing right here. I think her slow talking was
- 4:32Speaker 1: some sort of neo Marxist delaying, probably something, but it
- 4:37Speaker 1: was just everybody was just looking at her, like, are
- 4:41Speaker 1: you no offense to anybody? Do you have special needs?
- 4:44Speaker 5: I mean, how old dialed back when you rode the
- 4:48Speaker 5: bus to school? How long was the bus was on
- 4:51Speaker 5: the shorter side? Easy?
- 4:53Speaker 1: All right, let's at least one more, Michael.
- 4:56Speaker 7: So here's here's the deal. This is your last morning,
- 4:59Speaker 7: final warning. You must get up. You must start vacating
- 5:02Speaker 7: the property, or you're going to be placed under arrest.
- 5:04Speaker 6: So, like I said before, because I am the police.
- 5:07Speaker 7: Okay, I need you to stand over there. This is
- 5:10Speaker 7: going to you too. Okay, this is private property.
- 5:12Speaker 3: You have to leave. I need you to stand over
- 5:14Speaker 3: there for me. Okay.
- 5:18Speaker 4: As I said before, any warning you give them that
- 5:21Speaker 4: is not mourning you.
- 5:22Speaker 3: I'm warning you right now.
- 5:23Speaker 6: They're not going to listen.
- 5:25Speaker 3: They're not listening to you anymore.
- 5:26Speaker 6: Nothing is going on.
- 5:27Speaker 3: They're not listening to you anyway. They're not listening to
- 5:30Speaker 3: you anyway.
- 5:30Speaker 6: I'm warning against so I can go tell them.
- 5:32Speaker 3: I've already explained it and they're not listening to you.
- 5:35Speaker 7: So what I need you to do to avoid you
- 5:38Speaker 7: being arrested is I need you to go stand over
- 5:40Speaker 7: there and get off of private property. Once again, the
- 5:44Speaker 7: home owner here does not want you on their property. Okay,
- 5:47Speaker 7: I need you personally to go over there and stand
- 5:51Speaker 7: or you're going to be placed under arrest.
- 5:53Speaker 1: I know, would shampoo Hetter with the stick? I know?
- 6:01Speaker 1: All right, No, no, cut that off, Michael, We're not.
- 6:05Speaker 1: The poor cops had to listen to that again, We're not.
- 6:08Speaker 1: And then the final I think she really enjoys saying
- 6:11Speaker 1: the word liaison. For some reason, she just really enjoyed.
- 6:16Speaker 1: Maybe it's the most important position she's ever had in
- 6:18Speaker 1: her life. I'm I'm a liaison now. The final WTF
- 6:23Speaker 1: moment in this is in clip eighteen. Michael, hang on.
- 6:26Speaker 1: But and again I say this with actual sympathy and
- 6:32Speaker 1: a little sadness in my heart. These people are are
- 6:37Speaker 1: really sad sacks. They're misfit folks who don't fit in.
- 6:44Speaker 1: They're desperate to feel like they're living life a purpose
- 6:48Speaker 1: and what they're doing is important. They just come off
- 6:52Speaker 1: as sad. But obviously everybody gets arrested. And here's how
- 6:57Speaker 1: it went. There's one nugget in here that will make
- 6:59Speaker 1: you pull out your hair, you know what?
- 7:03Speaker 8: You fringish the other for me easier? Okay, I appreciate
- 7:07Speaker 8: your cooperation in the situation. See your arms back a little.
- 7:10Speaker 8: I don't want to hurt you with the cuffs. Snip
- 7:11Speaker 8: bring them away from your body, buddy, Thank you. It's
- 7:19Speaker 8: not too tight, right man? Okay, can you identify a sir?
- 7:30Speaker 3: Man?
- 7:31Speaker 8: Or you could sell your pronoun I don't want to
- 7:33Speaker 8: insult you, it's all okay.
- 7:35Speaker 1: Oh wow, Yeah. They ask everybody as they're cuffing them,
- 7:40Speaker 1: what are your pronouns? So we don't hurt your feelings? Wow?
- 7:45Speaker 5: So I don't know what the legality is you Are
- 7:48Speaker 5: you obligated as a cop to deal with the liaison.
- 7:53Speaker 1: Like if they name a liaison?
- 7:54Speaker 4: No?
- 7:54Speaker 1: Absolutely, okay, So they're just being potant this this guy
- 7:57Speaker 1: had the patience of a saint. I don't give a shit.
- 7:59Speaker 5: If you're the liaison, Hey, dudes, get out of here
- 8:01Speaker 5: or you're gonna get arrested.
- 8:03Speaker 1: Yeah, get out of my face, you half wit twat.
- 8:05Speaker 1: Yeah please, you probably ought you probably ought to bleep
- 8:09Speaker 1: that word Hanson. Please all y'all in the liaison you
- 8:12Speaker 1: wrote in on get Compassionate policing is a beautiful thing,
- 8:21Speaker 1: it is. I have so much admiration for you peace officers,
- 8:25Speaker 1: I really do. At some point, though, there's probably somebody
- 8:30Speaker 1: cross town that's exactly what I was thinking. Put him
- 8:32Speaker 1: in a headlock, chuck him in the car. Let's be
- 8:34Speaker 1: done with this.
- 8:35Speaker 5: As it's one thing to have that sort of patience,
- 8:37Speaker 5: but knowing that somewhere there's someone either about to or
- 8:42Speaker 5: has made a nine to one one call and there's
- 8:44Speaker 5: a car not getting there fast enough because of this shit.
- 8:48Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, if it's a super slow day there
- 8:50Speaker 1: in beautiful Columbus. Okay, all right, it's a problem we've got.
- 8:55Speaker 5: There are examples of you know, bad actors that come
- 8:57Speaker 5: into this country and use our uh freedom and laws
- 9:02Speaker 5: against us in all kinds of different ways. Yeah, this
- 9:05Speaker 5: sort of thing is similar. It's just you're taking advantage
- 9:10Speaker 5: of our efforts to not trample on anybody's rights.
- 9:14Speaker 1: And you know you are, yeah, yeah, true that there
- 9:20Speaker 1: is so much of Marxism, Neo Marxists that leans on
- 9:25Speaker 1: our openness, our kindness, are wanting to be good people,
- 9:30Speaker 1: and that's the very thing they exploit to introduce a
- 9:33Speaker 1: system that has killed more human beings than virtually any
- 9:36Speaker 1: other that's ever existed. They exploit our wanting to be nice.
- 9:40Speaker 1: I know why you can't, but man, a flashlight in
- 9:42Speaker 1: the back of the year. Boy, this is why you're
- 9:47Speaker 1: not of Columbus, Ohio, cop Jack, many reasons you failed
- 9:50Speaker 1: the psychological test again and particularly yes in particularly in
- 9:55Speaker 1: particularly well, I guess that's it. That was great
