The video begins as she is on the phone calling 911 or the cops while also talking to him, and its clear that they were having a conversation earlier (before the video started) as he brought up that she asked him if he needed directions.

Doesn't make him a liar IMHO, that he started videoing (or taking photos) at the point he did. There is no evidence he was taking photos or a video before this video started.

But yeah, he may very well have set this up. I'm not familiar with the "frauditor" tag ... not sure that every tag or label I see on the Interwebs is revealed truth. But then, he seems to be looking for a confrontation. Definitely a dangerous thing to do.

Anyway, I found it instructive on what rights people have, at least legally (and fortunately for him, the cop backed down when challenged). That one can be black or brown and sitting in a car parked on a street, and doesn't have to automatically give out license and insurance and all that on request, or explain what he is doing there, even in a 96% white town, and how to handle "I smell an odor coming from your car".

I wonder about loitering laws, though -- there are streets in Minneapolis that are known for drug dealing and prostitution, and I sure wouldn't want to be parked there for a long time and telling cops to mind their own business -- I think there are anti-loitering laws where I wouldn't get away with that, no matter how much video and lawyers I had.
