They Asked for ID – He Said NO Here’s What Happened | ID Refusal Rights

Refusing ID is legal in many cases. This video shows a real ID refusal case at the Georgia Public Safety Training Center. Jeff, a First Amendment auditor, is stopped by police who demand identification without clear suspicion of a crime.

In this powerful public audit, we witness an assertive yet lawful encounter where knowing your rights made all the difference. Filmed in Forsyth, Georgia, this interaction with Deputy Cody Maples and Investigator Mercer shows how quickly a legal activity can be treated as suspicious.

This video explains how First Amendment rights, Fourth Amendment protections, and Terry v. Ohio apply to filming and ID refusal in public spaces.

Don’t miss the breakdown of each legal point. Know your rights, stay calm, and be informed.
