Friday July 28, Haarlemmerweg Amsterdam, 5pm. I had just bought three wooden slats at a hardware store.
I carried them under my arm as I was approaching Bos en Lommerweg.
This man just asked me for ID, because I'm carrying slats.
- You're hereby arrested.
What?!
- You're hereby arrested.
You're kidding me?
- Let me see your ID.
WHAT?!
You gotta be kidding me?
- Get off the intersection.
I can't believe what's happening.
You're arresting me for not showing my ID because...
- You're giving me your ID.
No. Behave yourself.
Behave yourself! I'm just carrying some slats!
- ID.
Because why?!
Behave yourself. Behave yourself, man, please.
I didn't do anything.
- ID. Now.
I didn't do anything.
- ID. Now. Put that phone away.
I'm not putting my phone away, I have the right to film this.
- You're hereby arrested.
Even though I wasn't being aggressive at all, mista coward cop ociffer here thought
it was necessary to violently twist my arm behind my back
and intentionally grab my hand so that he severely bruised my left thumb.
I should just show my ID?
This is not Nazi Germany.
Behave yourselves.
I didn't hurt anybody. Whom did I do wrong? Why am I being held in cuffs?
Nothing happened at all, nothing at all.
I can't believe this is happening.
*** ridiculous.
Ok peoples, I was just arrested for carrying slats that were "too long", apparently.
I wasn't going to give them my ID for that, and now I'm in cuffs in a cop car.
I'm being held captive FOR CARRYING SLATS!
These people are insane.
The cops tried to take my phone from me throughout the entire incident
to try and prevent me from filming. They managed to do so in the end.
You're arrested. Give me that phone.
No, no, no. Behave yourself, this is my phone.
You can't enforce authority. That's not how you deal with people.
A hypocritical, pretentious, cowardly dog is what you are.
Start thinking for yourself, moron.
You can't continue acting this way, like a bunch of idiots.
Before you know it, you'll have your blind, slavish head on public display on the internet,
for everyone to see what an immoral *** you are. Like now.
