This is the childish, pedantic, and depraved nature of these enemies of the American people. Take note and guard yourself against their acts of aggression... In a clearly retaliatory move, after realizing that the video of the encounter had been posted on YouTube, which showed the CHP officers being schooled by the cars occupants on the law, Campagna moved a California court to obtain search warrants for the occupants of the cars cell phones and computers. Campagna claimed in court documents that the men “conspired to enter the checkpoint to commit a crime, specifically with the intent to resist/obstruct and delay officers at the checkpoint.” This stunning abuse of authority shows clearly the lengths to which some officers will go to retaliate against citizens that flex their rights. What is even more frightening is that a judge would sign this warrant, as it is clearly a means of retaliation by the officer for being “Cop Blocked.” This action is part of a growing trend of systematic attempts at intimidation towards those that attempt to hold officers accountable. Attempts to criminalize legal behavior shows a simplistic and dangerous mindset entrenched in law enforcement. The labeling of police accountability groups as “criminal extremists,” has already taken place many metropolitan cities across the America. Recently, through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, information has come to light that shows the lengths to which some departments will go in their attempts to criminalize those that peacefully strive for police accountability.
