| We're here in San Antonio, Texas, about to cover a student RFID protest in just mere | |
| We stopped here at this neighborhood Walmart to check for directions. | |
| And as you can see, we're surrounded by not only a Walmart, a GameStop, a Staples office | |
| supply store, but also a NSA data mining center. | |
| Let's go. | |
| Now, in 2008, and I wouldn't be surprised if it has happened again since then, a journalist | |
| was detained for 45 minutes for filming the then under construction NSA data mining center. | |
| We have been able to avoid detention here and we are not going to press our luck. | |
| This is Ja'Kari Jackson for the InfoWars Nightly News. | |
| Hey NSA, if you decide to confiscate this tape, we are truly looking for the | |
| visitor center and we would like to take a tour. | |
| you Yeah, we're trying to find the visitor center. | |
| Do you guys do guided tours here? | |
| No, we don't. | |
| Do you guys have any, like, information we can take home or anything like that? | |
| Information as far as what? | |
| I mean, just, like, what do you guys do here? | |
| Because, like, you guys do have a visitor center. | |
| Is that correct, sir? | |
| We don't. | |
| We can't get that information out. | |
| Okay. | |
| Are we being detained officer? | |
| Absolutely not. | |
| Okay, just asking. | |
| Just getting some information. | |
| You're asking me for info, I'm asking info for you, right? | |
| Hey, can you answer my questions if I ask you some questions? | |
| Okay. | |
| Can I get your ID, too? | |
| Well, sir, she's not driving. | |
| Why do I need to give you my ID? | |
| I'm trying to verify who you guys are. | |
| You're asking me questions and you don't know who you are. | |
| Who am I talking to? | |
| Okay, what is it that you want to know? | |
| Because you understand this is restricted government property, this area? | |
| Well, sir, like I said- There's a sign right here that states, no electrical equipment, no video camera, no filming. | |
| Okay sir, we'll be happy to leave. | |
| I'm just asking, can you confirm for me that there is a visitor's center over there though? | |
| How did you know there was a visitor's center? | |
| Sir, there's a sign over there. | |
| I'm just asking, can you confirm that it's over there? | |
| I'm not being a smart aleck. | |
| I know, I'm asking you, if you saw a sign, why are you asking me if there's a visitor's center? | |
| And what is your name officer? | |
| My name is Sergeant Rivera. | |
| There is in fact a visitor's sign. | |
| When we got over there, we didn't see any clear marketing that said visitor's center. | |
| Yes. | |
| Can you at least confirm from my camera that you do have a visitor center here? | |
| I cannot confirm anything, sir. | |
| I think I'm going to see someone in front of that car. | |
| Rob. | |
| Hey, they still got us out here. | |
| They got three cop cars on us. | |
| Oh yeah? | |
| What'd they say? | |
| They're not letting us leave. | |
| Yeah, I asked if we were detained. | |
| They said no, but they're checking both our driver's licenses. | |
| It's been like 10 minutes now. | |
| We're sandwiched in. | |
| We can't leave. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Are you taping all this? | |
| Yeah, we haven't turned the camera off. | |
| No, they said we're not detained, but they won't let us leave. | |
| No, he won't confirm what this building is. | |
| He just said it's a government institution and I asked him where the visitor center is and he's like, why do you want to go to the visitor center? | |
| Yeah, we got whoever the guy was. | |
| I couldn't, his shirt said something. | |
| I couldn't make it out. | |
| I think it said like national security or something like that. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I guess, I mean the larger issue is, are they San Antonio police? | |
| One of them is San Antonio police, the other have unmarked vehicles, so I'm not sure who | |
| It's completely unmarked. | |
| Okay, hold on. | |
| I'll try to get him over here. | |
| I'll try to get him over here. | |
| Excuse me, sir? | |
| Officer? | |
| My boss is on the phone. | |
| He'd like to talk to you if you have the time. | |
| Actually, I'm conducting my business right now, so if you could, go ahead and hang up while I'm talking to you. | |
| Okay, he's requesting that we hang up the phone. | |
| Why is that? | |
| My boss is asking why is that. | |
| Why? | |
| Because it's common courtesy to a police officer that I'm talking to you, the driver. | |
| Okay. | |
| Okay, alright, alright. | |
| I'll put it right there. | |
| They're coming up on the other side of the car too. | |
| Yeah. | |
| So. | |
| What's happening? | |
| They said they're still conducting their business. | |
| Like I said, it's been at least 20 minutes now. | |
| He said it's common courtesy not to talk on the phone. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Oh, now you're telling me you don't have common courtesy. | |
| Here they come, here they come, here they come. | |
| Alright, hold on, hold on Alex. | |
| Put the phone down by the side. | |
| Alright guys, you guys got a business card? | |
| Yes, yes I do. | |
| Matter of fact, officer, this is my boss's business card. | |
| He's actually, he'd like to talk to you guys if you have the time. | |
| Okay. | |
| Sure. | |
| All right, man. | |
| You guys are free to go, man. | |
| Thanks a lot. | |
| Thank you, sir. | |
| And what's your name, officer? | |
| Please don't come back here. | |
| Okay. | |
| We won't block this entrance again. | |
| Thank you, sir. | |
| Okay. | |
| All right, Alex. | |
| They said we can go. | |
| And, uh, yeah, we just had a encounter with, uh, at least one police officer, two unmarked vehicles, one marked vehicle. | |
| I'm here filming Melissa Melton. | |
| We came out here to the NSA Data Mining Center in San Antonio, Texas. | |
| They got out, they left us out here for at least 20 minutes as they ran their checks. |
