In this video, I react to a tense and alarming situation where a fellow First Amendment auditor was assaulted during an audit. As the confrontation escalated, the auditor was forced to use pepper spray in self-defense. I’ll analyze the events leading up to the incident, discuss the auditor’s response, and examine the legal and practical aspects of self-defense during public audits. This video highlights the risks auditors take while exercising their constitutional rights and underscores the importance of knowing how to handle challenging encounters.
This video falls under fair use, as it is transformative and intended for educational and commentary purposes. By analyzing and critiquing the original footage, this content provides additional value through insights, discussion, and raising awareness about First Amendment rights and public accountability.
