This week two of my friends were taken to jail, or a holding cell, for not standing for a judge. Due to an unlawful, if you ask me or refer to the constitution, camera ban inside superior court that actions of one, B. Tebo – bailiff, aka county sheriff – were not caught on film. Well, the courtroom had cameras but the state is not so willing to give them up.
Therefore I decided, with several other FreeKeene Activists, to wait outside for the judges and bailiff – particularly Tebo – in order to seek comment from those who assaulted my friends and threatened the rest of us. Again, for not rising for a judge. Something that isn’t illegal, yet, only a courtroom tradition/rule.
The video below was editing by Derrick J. Freeman, of Fr33Agents.com:
There is a part two coming where sheriff’s threaten us with stalking and intimidation charges for waiting in public space, where no one bares an expectation of privacy, to ask public officials questions. Remember, cameras aren’t allowed in the building so this is an unintended consequence of those actions.
And to the clerks and secretaries who were upset with our actions – You should talk to Tebo about how you feel. As long as he continues to act the way he does, we’ll be there to hold him accountable, he’s a loose cannon who restricts the free pree on a daily baises. It’s his acts you should be ashamed of or upset with. Or how about the judge that keeps your publicly funded jobs a secrete from the public?
Fuck standing up for a clown in a clown suit in a ridiculous kangaroo theater full of bad actors. The system is more corrupt than the people it claims are criminals. Watch this [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5vU-Fv8UlA&feature=related] video of a cop stealing paperwork out of an attorneys folder right in the middle of court proceedings. Cops are worthless fucking thugs that have no respect for the same law and constitution they swore an oath to uphold. Fuck the CORRUPT system. It’s time for a REVOLUTION!
Get a life. You guys make me sick.
I wonder if the guys doing the filming were late to work that day,,,,, Adam? Ian?
You can’t be LATE if you don’t have a JOB.
dawn why dont you go eat shit and die you copfucker bitch
I find it very interesting how the women (Dawn) of this country soon forget the oppression that this country once made them (women) suffer. It wasn’t so long ago in history when women could not vote, could not work and so on and so forth. And women, just like many others are still fighting for equality in this corrupt system. Dawn, you should really pull your head out of your ass and study history a bit. Your female ancestors had to fight the same type of tyranny that many other people are still fighting in this country. The beast (system) in this country has not changed, it has simply become more cunning.
Women love cops.
Who else caters to them in this society so much.
What ass clowns !! What silliness, on so many levels.
First let’s go to the ‘voluntary society’ crap. For that to work everyone must be civil, and have mutual respect, right? Now, I know not, nor care, why you were in the courtroom. Where is the mutual respect. The judge I’m certain would treat you as the adault you should be, but you won’t respect him? As for camera’s in the courtroom. I said before, where is the respect for those ‘innocent person’ who are so wrongly charged with a crime? They have to be there, and they aren’t volunteering to be filmed and on youe site. Oh, their rights and wants mean nothing to you. Only your rights matter.
And please, very seriously, tell why you think any of the people your taping have to talk to you? Are you just stupid? This site advocates “not talking” but for some reason you think that just because you command it everyone should talk to you. Explained please. Educate me.
“What ass clowns, what silliness, on so many levels.” – T
I couldn’t agree more but before I explain why, I’d like to touch on a few of your other comments.
- Ah, what? Respect? Am I supposed to have respect for a man that continually jails people who’ve harmed no one, orders people to rise when he enters the room (a room ‘the people’ pay for) and demands you to remove your clothing while in his presence (ie, hats). Aside from those he’s also – this particular judge – jailed someone for not wanting to fill out a financial form, banned cameras from the building and allows bailiffs to take your property before being allowed into the building. So, are you still ‘certain’ the judge would treat us as adults?
- Some people at CopBlock.org do seek permission of those who do not work for the state before filming. Others, like myself, base that off the surroundings. If you’re in a public building/space and you have no expectation of privacy, then I won’t ask, I’ll just film. Also, in the cases you mentioned, we’re talking about courtrooms. Anyone who’s visited a courthouse in the last year knows the drill – empty pockets, backpacks on conveyor and through the metal detector – and knows they’re being recorded already.
At the end of the day this boils down to public property rights. See, I believe that all property should be private. That when you have public property paid for by taxation, you have millions of property owners (or ones who’ve paid for such property). This creates a problem as to what the rules of that property should be. It’s impossible to get everyone to agree on one set of rules? So what do we do? Do we continue to jail those with the least supported views? Do we stop one person’s right to record public officials because some other private person is being brought (and scared/ashamed of being there) to court – most likely facing victimless crime charges (just so you can keep your job)?
How many people are you willing to cage just because they don’t smoke what you smoke, or drink like you drink? Or because they want to film in a building they pay for as well? How many cops, cars, guns, judges, jails and wealth will it take for you (and everyone else) to feel safe? Is it when everyone who believes they own their own bodies and the right to spend their money in ways they see fit are dead or in jail?
Do you seek a day when all “Bad Guys” come to court willingly, with no desire to question the charges let alone the fact of it they could film? Where government controls every aspect of your life and people are nothing more than human slaves? Or robots for the more peaceful version? Is this what you seek T? Because it’s exactly what your job is intended for, its been the nature of government since its creation.
Luckily, it’s also the downfall of every government. I hope you seek the truth before then….
It is reasonable to “Assume” there is not expectation of Privacy when in a court room. The proceedings are recorded for the purpose of the ” Official Record” amongst other reasons like “Security”. Common Knowledge plays a part in this too. It is my understanding that the major players in the movement wouldnt object to a non- government employee’s request to not be filmed. If they are captured on film incidentally because the filmer is covering the proceedings, I think its inconsequential and not dilberate. Public Officials are fair game by virtue of being well… Public Officials. Correct me if i’m wrong but I think Ademo’s position isnt directed at ALL judges but given the behavior and actions of one in particular, he protests in his own way to demonstrate respect has to go both ways. If you watch the vidoe’s of his and Pete’s Wiretapping trial, He clearly treats that Judge differently and respectfully as he was given the same. Court Room rules are subjective at best and I think that anyone that has to enter the same court room repeatedly and had his rights questioned or violated repeatedly will eventually feel biased by that court and therefore has nothing to lose by questioning subjective rules and treating an unhonorable person as such. not many non- lawyers take on SERIOUS Felony Charges and WIN so to paint him as an Idiot or ” Ass Clown” is over reaching in my opinion.
Ademo… I guess I’m confused. you think all property should be private.. so why are you getting upset about rules in the public places? For IF they were private.. they would have plenty of rules. Rules you can’t do squat about becuase you “rights” don’t apply when they are on my private property.
And this judge.. who you are upset over who puts people in jail for plants.. has probably put more than 1 child rapist, murderer, child abuser is prison.
Do I like wearing a shirt when it’s 100 degree out? Nope! but if I want to buy a 12 pack from the party store, i’m going to put on on.
Making a stupid “statement” like not standing up for the judge isn’t going to do squat about your charge. Just like complaining about court proceedings in you wire tapping case….isn’t going to do crap about your charge.
I am honestly honored that Ademo himself has responded to me.
I wanted to respond back sooner but I was busy, I just took 3 reports of B&E’s , the proceeds of which undoubtedly are going to fuel someone’s ‘victimless crime’ of drug possession / use.
Ademo, a peaceful society is an orderly soceity. An an orderly society has rules. The problems come when people decide (free will) to violate that order. Think about for just a moment. How many things are compelled of you by any law or the enforce arm there of? Very little. Almost all of the laws (statutes, ordinances, etc…) only limit what you can do. They don’t make you do anything. Your near constant statements about ‘unconstituional laws’ are simply wrong. Yuo may not like them (obviously you don’t) but the laws passed by our elected officals, are the law until judged to be unconstitutional by the Supreme Court. Very, very few laws are ever overturned. For a reason. It’s because they pass constitutional tests. Sorry. Organize. But like I said in reply to the post by Sheftall elsewhere on this site about his comment about ‘the consent of the governed’ (which you also like to throw around), it’s not EACH PERSONS CONSENT. This is a representative republic. We elect people to make laws for us. Yon can decide to drop out and ‘revoke your consent’ all you like. You still live here. And I, along with almost everyone else, don’t revoke our consent. THAT MEANS THE LAWS STILL APPLY TO YOU.
Now as for your filming. Film the police. Not a problem. Just don’t interfer. Yuo don’t have any rights interfering with someone else’s business (your idea, voluntary society-remember, if they don’t volunteer to speak with you, your out). You’re wrong about thinking that as a “public offical” answer to you directly. If I choose to speak with you, it’s my choice. If you need police assistance (which of course you never will), thats different. But why do you think I owe you anything, any answers to your badgering?
As for the mutual respect. Thanks for proving my point. Your right. You have the right to film in public and there is no expectation of privacy while in public (of course I remember the post where the police were filming you in public and you almost lost your mind). But where is your respect for your fellow humans that don’t want to be filmed? Believe or not, someone people are as proud as you that they are in court. Some might be actually ashamed. And there you are, flexing your rights (who cares about those people) filming away. OK. Nice.
@PSOSGT, And this judge.. who you are upset over who puts people in jail for plants.. has probably put more than 1 child rapist, murderer, child abuser is prison. This is the type of comment that the “Pro cop,yes men” are always puking, as they rationalize why its ok for the “system” to violate peoples civil rights. Ademo’s statements in court, might not do “squat” for “his” charge,but if more people voiced their issues like he does, and not bend over,because you were told to, it wouldn’t be so easy for courts to add charges in retaliation for questioning their actions.
Questioning authority only seems stupid to those who dont have the guts to do it,or are afraid of what “might”,or,”might not” happen.
@Camil2003
You should go tell that women love cops bullshit to all these (http://behindthebluewall.blogspot.com) women.
Cell phone jammers aren’t illegal. Why would they be? Public schools have existed for hundreds of years without the need for cell phones.
