TO THE POLICE OFFICER. To give AB the respect he deserves how about you write on here your apology as the whole interaction has been uploaded and the selfie stick used ha ha - One of the best Cops up to now though :) Keep up the good work AB ❤
Dear AB, I am sorry for stopping you. I joined SO19 because running after criminals is hard work and CO19 lets me sit in the car all day. I wanted to be promoted to CID by the MET so I can sit in an office and do nothing all day but I'm a white male so they rejected me. I was wrong about the drone claim, as you can see I droned on and on in a public place. You definitely aren't a watch list now much. Yours PC PC
Apologise for accusing him of editing the video and apologise for getting the drone laws wrong for 249gm drones. Also if there were sooooo many attacks on police stations and was an issue, a bill would of been brought in by Parliament to make filming police stations illegal.
@@oneball783 If filming a police station will compromise it's security, then God help us in crowded public places like train stations and stadiums where security is much more of a concern and filming is allowed.
You mean one of the dumbest with the biggest self inflated ego with nothing but rubbish to back it up. You would think an armed cop had at least a basic understanding of the law - this one runs on his feelings and that is dangerous to every civilian he comes across.
Imagine this man's poor wife. EVERYTHING would be a challenge and a grounds for argument. He'd waste forty minutes grilling her on why she cooks his eggs a certain way for breakfast, or why she folds a newspaper in a particular way. The unfortunate lady would be driven to suicide. Unless of course, she is a policewoman with a similar unbearable personality.
No woman would marry that, if he proposed and she said "yes" he would be like "why did you say yes" "are you planning to blow me up in my sleep"" you're nicked sunshine"
I heard through the grape vine his Earthly Wife has pre recorded on a tape machine of all the possible responses of every possible scenario. So when this tool starts up with his self absorbed talks he doesnt even know when she leaves the house. She goes bingo sees her mates the tape recorder is just trailing of as she walks back in through the front door after 5 hours of being out and then she says yes I think i understand all what your saying now. Then this annoying fool this fallen brother with his huge ego then says to his wife Good dont let it happen again and she will say oh no darling i wont while patting her trusty tape recorder machine PMSL X
His partner is probably sick of him leaving the toilet seat down, he's got to be a squatter, as for talking at people, he has more rabbit than sainsbury's, he's certainly in touch with his feminine side that's plain with the amount of inane slobber he's got. Egotistical uneducated is to simple to describe him, Can't fly a drone. Wrong Filming is grounds for section 43. Wrong Why does the public have to educate the imbeciles.
So according to the argumentative cop, filming outside a police station can only be one of two things...a you tuber or a terrorist. What a mind set. I'm surprised he hasn't been promoted. The daft ones usually rise through the ranks quite quick.
@@blue24563 the government and wokeness has largely contributed to this by dividing up society. It doesn't attract the same people it used to, i.e. the free thinking ones.
@Helmut Schmacker I'm from the USA & watch & love these auditors here in USA. They all have different way good, bad, & ok. I watch them all but AB is one of my favorites. He can talk circles around these cops.
Intelligence and police don't seem to go hand in hand tbf. Baldy clearly thought he was of a higher intellectual calibre, but repetition and pound shop hypotheticals don't count.
One of the best audits I have seen from AB as he has clearly been learning from the master Focus Pocus and remaining calm and not getting childish as he can do sometimes 9/10.
Some crazy dude showed up outside my flat and started trying to knock down my door, shouting like a madman, claiming to be my father (my dad died more than 20 years ago). He was outside my flat for easily 15 minutes, even kicking at the door a couple of times, which made me think he would manage to break in and attack me. I called the police, and they actually told me that they had no officers available and to call again if the man managed to break into my flat. So basically the police have no time to respond to emergencies but they can spend 35 minutes harassing a guy with a camera?
you should have said you have shot through your door and you are not sure if you hit him because it has gone really quiet .....i bet every copper in your area would have turned up within a few minutes
It's very simple. You stop, ask a couple of questions, immediately realise that a softly spoken man with a camera is no threat - and certainly no terrorist - then be on your way. But, no, Mr Copper would rather block the road, argue the toss for twenty minutes and indulge in a long-winded bout of Copsplaining.
You should of asked him why has he got so much time to sit doing nothing ? He hung around way way to long. Unnecessarily. It’s like they can’t stand someone not instantly becoming fearful and submissive. You handled them really professionally and I do believe it does make the police better by your actions. Not instantly but yes it will improve the police. Bravo mate.
Better to take 30-40min calmly talking then detain or arrest someone to get it over with.. It's good to see armed police consider options and take time to be sure... Its clear they'd already worked it out.
@@keithdon3313 if they’d already worked it out then they should have just carried in with their jib. Instead they hung around way to king. But I hear what you’re saying.👍👍
This officer made so many incorrect assumptions. "Cant fly drones in residential areas" (yes you can), "I bet you edit this part of the video out" (Nope), "I could have used section 43 if I wanted" (no you couldn't, you didn't have grounds), "Now it makes sense why you make this video, to get a claim" (no it isnt). Constant wrong assumptions and he was so smug like he was guessing correctly LOL. Proper donut
If this guy thinks hes being polite he needs his head checking. He’s sarcastic, rude, ignorant, argumentative, a liar, and is clearly never wrong (in his mind)
A lot of people seem to think they can get away with all manner of rudeness and offense if they use a polite tone of voice. You can imagine most of them holding a roll of gaffer tape and a length of rope whilst politely inviting you to go for a walk in the woods.
He’s a hero unto himself, and strangely has never met a dirty cop. Never seen a copper break the law or abuse powers. Sleeps soundly thinking he’s a special person rather than a small, petty man.
@@ToddDouglasFox even if he didn't mention as being AB at the end, the cop already have all the information he can gather. starting at 30:00 , at this point he will try to get how many times, which part of the country, and how long ago and how much you got paid out to narrow down his search to find out who he is on the central police database. Talk as little to police as possible.
full marks,. for showing this one. I would call it a stalemate. The officer got all the information he wanted with no threats, he remained calm and laid back at all times. But this is what we should expect of our armed police. Imagine the results if every pig were armed.
Meanwhile, the knife crime epidemic in London continues, while these clowns spend half an hour interrogating a perfectly law abiding member of the public, and they whinge they’re short staffed. Muppetry.
@@goodyeoman4534 I agree with half of what you said. But drug laws are a waste of time and money. What Switzerland did regarding heroin usage really works well.
@@RicArmstrong They are only a waste of time and money when used incorrectly. Stronger possession laws would provide a stronger deterrent, as in Japan and South Korea, or Britain thirty years ago.
AB, damnit! You captured the magic yet again! Please don’t stop. If the officer reads this; pls consider your developed bias of dealing with people as IF they are not innocent until proven guilty. There’s a difference between curious suspicion and paranoid bias. Don’t identify with your authority! Identify with your role as public servant (EG. To the suspect you are curious about!) Act on legal facts you do know, NOT on a “why” about your feelings of insecurity.
@@ToddDouglasFox Well at least one of the two was not impressed, he looked bored. The invisible constable in the back was probably bored too, but we have no evidence for that. Several other police drivers were clearly "peed" off that he was blocking their access and even broke the law and drove on the pavement to avoid damage to the cars they had been assigned. He was clearly in no hurry to get into the station so he had nothing better to do than entertain us. Thanks AB!
@@jimmyccam we can assume by the other officer’s silence that he had no “words” of support for the cop in the driver’s seat. Typically if a cop is in the back seat it means he/she has no sonority. So either the back seater agreed and was bored to tears so had no words or disagreed but feared saying a damn thing. Either way, I think Mr. Know it ALL was outgunned by BOTH of his support (non support) crew.
@@steveallen1635 You made the point I was about to make. I studied body language many years ago, first sign of a compulsive liar is the hand ready to cover the mouth.
I think this officer was way smarter than most are giving him credit for. He got exactly what he wanted out of AB. After the YouTubing was admitted he should have driven off, he really wanted to talk AB around to his thinking so carried on for an extra 15 minutes!! I’ll admit this was a really interesting one.
The extra time however did illicit AB’s channel name - after he had that, they left pretty quickly. It seems this could have been achieved much more quickly with stronger rapport building from the officer a La shorter bearded armed officer in AB’s infamous MI5 video
This was an intense 40 minute question and answer session 😂 this officer didn't stop for a breath between listening to your response and firing another question. Clearly quite intelligent and well trained but still has the stink of "we can do whatever we want to you regardless of what the law says". It's quite clear that his attitude will not change based on this experience.
San Francisco USA. Great audit and interaction with the police/public servants! Giving ALL hope, in an imperfect world; that civilized societies are alive and present. Great Craig! Big fan of your videos, audits, and spoken word while enjoying your time educating future generations and the policy enforcers. 👍👍👍 Keep on' trucking.
That guy was really broken and his logic was flawed. Someone who's that broken shouldn't be an armed officer and should have better mental health support. It's good to be evasive or defensive, he just embarrassed himself over and over and couldn't overcome his ego.
The interaction was frightening, no way should the guy be a police officer let alone armed, he is potentially dangerous, and in my opinion no place for unhinged people in any police force..
What you've got to be asking is not if he is the number one time of talking to the police it's the police say they are too busy to do things and this video shows why they are too busy
@@jackwatsonepic626 I'm quite confident if their radio alerted them to something more important than chatting to a member of the public they'd be on their way elsewhere.
huh? they're all scum. he was probably worse. if they aren't violating rights they are protecting scumbags that violate rights. none of them are worthy of oxygen. NONE.
@@foufoudoudou299 I'd say his life was sadder and less eventful. You're enjoying your day and being positive. I can't say the same for him. He seems to be having a crap day.
@Tejinder Singh, gas’s all Indians Ok so you are all being negative.. There are a lot of things I don't like. I just avoid them. Do the same here mate and walk away
It's scary how little they know of the laws they are meant to uphold. That Officer seemed to have developed his own personal set of laws for members of the public.
That was the most interesting video so far. I hope he is watching the Kidderminster video and realising how the police constantly abuse section 43 and that you were imprisoned for no reason apart from paranoia. Keep up the fantastic work for our rights AB👍
He seems to truly think that a computer will recognize when a law is not entered as to the reason for an arrest! That bit was the silliest bit of all. Does he not know that it’s fill in the blank, not that the computer will recognize no supporting law has been entered!
This police officer thought he was being a lot more reasonable than he actually was. If something good comes from it it would be that he will look up your previous video, and also read up about drone laws. I did notice the nervous swallow when you mentioned that your video had been viewed 500k times, and I sensed a disturbance in the force at that, likely a slight puckering of his anus as he rapidly tried to form a disengagement strategy. All in all humorous and engaging as always AB
They're definitely going to clamp down on the drone laws in the coming years. Just like they are making a concerted attempt to curb free speech on the internet as well as in public or private.
He already had an idea of who he was after the first 10 min. He kept trying to debate AB cause he wanted to not look stupid on camera after knowing it would get plenty views. he wanted a win over the auditor without arresting him. but failed
Tbh the police officer was quite entertaining and witty. Very engaging conversation. Came across as aggressive at first but turned out to be a decent conversation afterwards I must say
At the end yes, when he realised how many people this would be viewed by. He's passive aggressive, and doesn't know the law on a number of issues including drones.
Officer: “If I wanted to I could have arrested you under section 43!” Same officer 10 mins later: “There is no way you got arrested under section 43 for filming” The mental gymnastics these officers do to keep up with their own biast rationalisation of the situation is astounding.
@tsia He said so because earlier, AB was being a prick, like he always does, by not explaining why he was recording in the first place and for what reason he was gonna use that video. Policeman would have been justified to be suspicious of an offense under S.58A Terrorism Act, and would have been entitled to a S.43 detain and search as a result. He obviously didn't do it, and finally AB says its for a youtube channel. That's all he needed to say. No big drama, these people just love to wind up coppers for no reason. All the same, thinking its cool to hate on police.
@tsia Me? A hater? It's you lot trying desperately for an excuse to hate the police. And I am just being realistic, not hating. AB (and all "auditors") deliberately act in a way to confuse and wind up the police to trigger some form of reaction. It's pathetic, honestly, but the man gets views because there are idiot youngsters and working class who judge off of partial evidence to hate something. They are the real haters.
@@pritesh2293 I can see why you'd think he was being a prick, but surely the point of these videos is him not answering any questions he chooses not to? Thus dispelling the mythical powers of the police which they think they can use to question, detain and harass anyone they feel like.
@@sideshow4417 Of course he has the right not to say anything, but he should also acknowledge that by not saying anything provides no excuse on his part to explain his behaviour, therefore making it more suspicious.
funny how infallible he was speaking. under uk law You can fly drones under 250g basically anywhere. except OVER police stations, prisons and airports.
Hi A B, this one is difficult because the man who keeps on asking to many questions, because you are not conforming to his expectations he 'thinks' that you are weird, he keeps saying that you are being evasive and that justifies his suspicion then he says that calling him silly is rude. He has obviously got nothing better to do than sit there having an argument with you, after nearly seven minutes he says he will not answer your questions because he does not know who you are, would that not apply equally to you with his questions. It is very hard to believe that he really has nothing better to do, there seems to be some sort of strange compulsion to ask questions, I call it why-ning, he delivers this elegant fantasy about the activities of people planning to attack them he mentions a stabbing incident at another station without any clear evidence that the attacker had been there filming first. He does not know how many times he has to tell you the same thing but still wants you to repeat your reasons for being there ad nauseam. Cheers, Richard.
YOOOOOO hi ab , a police officer will never take your side against another police officer. the moment you told him how many views you got he was checking every word 3 times in his head :)
When i saw the video was 40 mins + i was thinking it would be too long. I was wrong, fascinating interaction. I thought the officer was ok tbh and was very careful with his words but he crossed swords with the master and there was only going to be one outcome. It was very quietly satisfying to watch this interaction.
Where is AB's letter of apology for your, let's call it 'mistake'? Why do cops assume they know the law? This is a fantastic example of why we need auditors.
To a hammer, everything looks like a nail. To a police officer, everyone looks like a suspect. That's the bottom line. This cop reveals that type of thinking several times in this video. They suspect EVERYONE. And when you don't comply or play 40 questions with them, they see that as being 'non' complaint, which triggers their suspicion even more! It's who they are, and it is ingrained so deeply into their thought process that they can't help themselves but to think that way. They are used to being the ones ASKING the questions, not the ones BEING questioned. Without evidence or 'grounds' as you put it, they are helpless to act and they can't stand it. So, they will threaten you in some other form! They can not stand a Citizen being noncompliant (even when you are completely legal in what you are doing)! And it chaps their asses.
@@BaldMancTwat did ab ever walked around anyone's house filming? You think uneducated cops live in their station?. I hope you know you are not that clever as you think you are. Now that we know you are stupid...think 20 times before you make un logical comments
ive watched a lot of your vids and i must say i was very impressed and grateful that this kind of polis officer is still out there doing very important works with proven considerate and adaptable intelligence and excellent interaction skills - getting closer to the way it should be
We have 2 types of officers today, those that see themselves as part of the public but have been given the duty to help and serve the public's needs. But then we have the type that see themselves as a part of the police force and are no longer a member of public, to those officers, it's ok we dont want to be associated with you and i honestly see those types as threats to the public, and to the ones that respect their roles and the public, the officers that don't are also a threat to you aswell.
The driver was just trying to show off his acted intelligence in front of his colleagues by trying to grill you. It was quite pathetic really. Within a minute it was clear you was making a video for social media and he couldn't help but continue probing and flexing his interrogation skills. I think he expects the video to highlight his interrogation skills knowing his bosses will probably see it as he hopes to be a detective. Sad man! Would have been better to say something funny
If your self employed it's optional. No contract = no claim. Why do you think when they contact you the heading say, Dear customer. Time to wise up how this system works.
@@thehouseholder5468 the copper was wasting the time trying to be clever for half an hour! 3 coppers in the car that we pay for needlessly stringing on a conversation for an extra half hour when he knew it was RU-vid in 2 mins
Thank God that all the criminals in London took 30 odd minutes off committing actual crimes so that Officer "I bet you don't keep this bit in your video" could have a chat with someone that wasn't committing a crime! I think we should thank and applaud them. Another great video AB. Keep up the good work.
The 'officer's' passive-aggressiveness throughout the whole interaction, was a way of making AB feel incredibly uncomfortable, whilst AB was performing a lawful act in public. He did good to stand his ground .
I thought I’d just watched a special edition of The Office with Ricky Gervais, starring AB ! That copper pulled off the best Ricky Gervais impression I’ve ever seen! 😂
He never kept his part of the bargain, near the end he said he would tell you what the building was if you answered his question, you answered his question at which point he then drove off.
yep. this conversation went on waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long. gave up way too much info too. they deserve zero info, especially an insufferable prick like this fuck.
Nah, AB slowly released it because he knew that guy would have used section 43 on him. He also used the scenario of a guy surveilling the same way AB was doing and said that guy attacked him a few years ago...right. If the cop didn't get the answer he was seeking those cuffs would have came out.
I am your new subscriber. I couldn’t resist to watch all your video and watched all of them within last 3 weeks All of them are quite entertaining . You have great confidence and communication skills 👍👍👍
You could tell that officer was impressed....the look on his face when AB told him the amount of viewers he has, or the part when the female inspector made apologizes for AB's arrest and was viewed by over 1.000.000 viewers.....the officer was so suspicious at the beginning , he tought he was more clever than AB....little did he knew......anyway...great audit...support from a Belgian audit fan.OUT !
This was an absolute education for this police officer (armed police officer) wall the amount of education training and intelligence this man has he has never heard of you doing this or other auditors doing this how frequently we are reminded that once a policeman has been brought down to the same level it is so nice to see him with his arm on at the edge of the car being educated by a member of the public remember you are on our payroll you are on our time and you are only a pubOnly a public servant there for all your cops planing and your altered ego has left you where you are, never have I ever seen a copper dig yourself such a wide and deep hole remember you can never educate pork😊
Well one thing for sure, without AB filming and posting - this guy’s bacon would be a complete waste. How ironic because he’ll never get it. I can smell breakfast getting overcooked.
There are no powers prohibiting the taking of photographs film or digital images in a public place . Therefore members of the public and press should not be prevented from doing so . We must acknowledge that citizen journalism is a feature of modern life and police officers are filmed and photographed more than ever . Unnecessarily restricting photography, wether for the casual tourist or Professional is unacceptable and undermines public confidence in the police service . Once an image has been recorded , the police have no power to delete or confiscate it without a court order. All forces guidance letter 26aug 2010 .

Coronavirus Act is still in force which means the police can seize anything and anyone without a court order. This will be made permanent before the emergency powers finally elapse.
I love the way he uses the scenario of the house getting broken into,,, being as the buggers never turn up when they do get broken into,, A, B, The end was brilliant,,,,
It's like watching paint dry. You need the patience of a Saint to wade through it. Ab is a master at distraction and testing the resolve of officials. AB is right about it being lawful but let's be honest he's teases provocation as well.
While their suspiscion may be somewhat understandable, an interesting stat to remember when an officer is explaining how dangerous you could be to them is that after an interaction like this between a member of the public and a police officer, the member of the public is over 200 times more likely to die following that interaction than the officer is. The fact is, while their job may carry danger, they are waaayy more dangerous to us than we are to them. In fact statistically, the odds are, you are more likely to be killed by the police than a terrorist.
@@robogen1331 i dont have the link any more but Google the stats. How often police die after interactions with the public and how often the public die after interacting with the police.
What are you talking about; the kind of 'warrior cops' Daily Mail loves to praise now and then; think of the lad who was murdered in Streatham a few days ago.
He was an awkward guy, someone who doesn’t think they are wrong! Also someone that treats us (public) different to them (police) his whole demeanour was arrogant. He thought he was better than you and tried to belittle you. Like what you were saying he was wanting to roll his eyes at you! Also he assumes that it would be good for you video to show the police swearing! No officer it wouldn’t be good but AB will expose officers like that for the world and your superiors and colleagues to see to make change to your approach surly that’s a positive thing. AB is a league of auditors unlike others and as you can see he’s near 200k subs! 😊
Really great vid AB. Interesting to see their thought process and how he was never wrong and told you to research legislation but gaurenteed he wont! Drones for example :)
Again - a very interesting interaction. Sensitive areas will always attract the interests of the public and of course when the public become interested one has to ask why, curiosity is an innocent mannerism and must be treated as such. Special units within the UK are formed to deal with specific threats and all curious actions must be investigated to ascertain the intentions of that curious individual. Keep the vids coming, very enjoyable.
This is actually the most informative interaction I have ever witnessed by you or anyone AB. We learned a lot from the police and why they think they can harass and try impart there beliefs on a member of public exercising there rights to film and for the public to do what they want within the law without harassment. TY AB and the Poe-lease.
I think the Met should dock 40 minutes from that firearms officer’s pay cheque. Supposed to be patrolling the streets and responding to calls but instead sits there trying to make a personal point in order to satisfy his ego. What a joke.
its amazing how much time they have on their hands when a teenager is dying most days on the streets of Met area - I just cannot believe they are allowed to travel in a group of three and just stop and have a chat for 40 minutes - how much did that just cost us?
I love this guy is so confident, keeps saying “Google it”, yet is so ill-informed about his own job, including the requirements to fulfil a legal arrest, would be amazing, should be amazing, but it’s not - it’s so common. He can’t learn, he’s so full of himself, he goes on about S43, in a patronising manner, yet hasn’t read the memo he received from NPCC.
He should be sentenced to walk the streets of london for 6 weeks like a town cryer... announcing loudly "Im an arsehole, I'm an asshole, see it here, see it now."
@@ianjones3568 Indeed Jonesy! and with rotten fruit and veggies being as expensive as they are, the town would have to settle for the sloppier version of sheep and cattle turds!
