[00:05:02]>> Oh, I can get you our binder if you're interested in any of that information.

[00:05:05]>> I'm not interested in anything, ma'am.

[00:05:06]She want alerted you guys. I didn't need your help. That's your point of contact right there.

[00:05:11]>> So, I'm going just go about what I was doing if you don't want to be professional.

[00:05:14]>> So, Oh, >> I asked your name.

[00:05:16]>> Very professional.

[00:05:17]>> Well, I asked your name and you didn't want to give it. So, that's not professional.

[00:05:19]>> I would prefer not to give it on camera.

[00:05:22]>> Well, what doesn't matter? You work for the public, ma'am. You're a public servant.

[00:05:25]>> I I am, >> right?

[00:05:39]>> Okay, that's regarding patrons.

[00:05:42]>> Okay, >> so that is that is very true when um patrons are doing in their workout and things like that. If there's patrons in there videoing children in our programming that we can't allow.

[00:05:55]>> It's prohibited. So, but but it's not it's not illegal.

[00:05:59]>> It's prohibited.

[00:06:00]>> Right. Okay.

[00:06:01]>> Because filming children in our programs that we're responsible for is not allowed. Well, >> because you don't have the permission to film those children.

[00:06:10]>> Well, you don't really need permission.

[00:06:12]You don't need permission to film anybody in public.

[00:06:15]>> No, no, no. But when they're in a program, they're not in the public. They have a signed >> We have a signed waiver >> by the parents restricting certain people from being videoed in a program.

[00:06:28]I'm not talking about out in the public.

[00:06:31]I'm talking about when they're in a specific program.

[00:06:33]>> It still doesn't restrict our rights, ma'am. That's all I'm saying. We have a right to do >> not film children.

[00:06:39]>> Well, the the the thing was a lady came a lady. No one said anything about children anyway. I don't know even know why children are coming up.

[00:06:46]>> Oh, we can film whatever for various we have children's classes throughout.

[00:06:51]>> We can film whatever our eyes can see.

[00:06:53]Even if it is children, that's just a right that we have.

[00:06:56]>> El This is amazing.

[00:07:04]>> This is unbelievable. But it really is.

[00:07:06]I can't believe that I'm being, you know, for a lack of a better term, harassed.

[00:07:10]>> Absolutely.

[00:07:10]>> Absolutely I am for something I have a right to do now.

[00:07:13]>> To continue to film as long as we're not interrupting the classes or filming classes.

[00:07:18]>> Well, that's not what she said. She said I couldn't do it at all. She pointed to a sign and said you're not cut it off.

[00:07:24]Unfortunately, we cannot restrict you from filming in hallways because we do too for our surveillance.

[00:07:29]>> Exactly. It doesn't make any sense. But >> not in our classes and not on our fitness floor. Well, I was I was just standing at the fitness floor. What's wrong with that?

[00:07:38]>> This is on your This is >> So, we have the rules posted throughout the fitness center. Um, and it keeps our patrons privacy safe.

[00:07:46]>> There's no privacy film. There's no privacy in public, ma'am.

[00:07:57]>> So, so what I'm going to I mean, we can go back and forth, back and forth, sir.

[00:08:00]I'm going to continue to do what I'm doing. Good.

[00:08:02]>> So, no matter who's on camera, whether it be parents, children, I'm going to record whatever my eyes can see. I'm letting you guys know that right now.

[00:08:08]So, what do we do with that?

[00:08:09]>> And I'm going to ask you not to film children.

[00:10:08]>> You We'll get it that way.

[00:10:14]>> Of course, we can get your name. We can get your first and last name.

[00:10:16]>> File personal information.

[00:10:18]>> That's not personal information, ma'am.

[00:10:19]You're on the clock.

[00:10:20]>> My name is personal information.

[00:10:21]>> Absolutely not.

[00:10:22]>> That is the foyer law. And I do know that.

[00:10:48]>> Hopefully, I can continue unmolested.

[00:10:52]So, I guess this is where they said we can't be, but of course we can. As you guys can see the logic, they have cameras pointing directly exactly at what we're doing. That seems to never make sense. Absolutely at all. They can do it, but we can't. Doesn't make any sense.

[00:11:09]>> Are you going to put it on YouTube? I want to be famous.

[00:11:11]>> Definitely going to put it on YouTube.

[00:13:05]>> He said my Oh, wow.

[00:13:11]He's probably getting ready to tell on us obviously to that director lady and see what they have to say.

[00:13:22]>> Yeah.

[00:13:23]>> Yeah. She's going to let you know to leave me be, sir.

[00:13:27]>> Yeah.

[00:13:30]>> What's going on, director?

[00:13:31]>> Nothing.

[00:13:32]>> Would you try to turn these young ladies against me?

[00:13:34]>> No, they're just all upset that you're doing this.

[00:13:36]>> Huh?

[00:13:37]>> They're upset that you're doing this.

[00:14:13]>> You're salty, man. It would It would have looked good if you would have just said, "You know what? I'm sorry, sir."

[00:14:19]It would have looked good for you.

[00:14:20]>> Yeah. But you know what? A dude coming filming, the optics aren't good. Okay.

[00:14:25]>> I'm just saying.

[00:14:25]>> I understand. If you were in a class and you see some dude filming, you're a self.

[00:14:29]>> No, I wouldn't I wouldn't feel any way because the the building has cameras all over the place.

[00:14:34]>> Yeah. You're not the building, though, dude.

[00:14:37]>> Wow. Ah, this guy, man. Ah, this guy.

[00:14:49]Yeah, man. So, there they're like doing yoga or something like, "So what, man?

[00:14:53]We're not going to allow, like I say at the beginning of every video, you're not going to we're not going to be we're not going to allow anyone to infringe on our rights at any time from anyone. I wouldn't care what they say, how many excuses they come up with. It ain't just happening. It ain't going to happen, man. Period. So, it is what it is. Well, here's the administration office right here.

[00:15:20]Executive director, Teresa Jennings, Superintendent of Administration Services, Ka Carla Smothers, Sue Mayor, So I guarantee that lady that didn't want to identify she I can guarant and it's pretty dark back here too. But this is the office that they came out of when they first started complaining. So it's guaranteed to her name is one of those. Well, we know the director the shorter lady is Teresa. She admitted that she was the director. So we going to see. We going to get a foyer anyway and we going to find our way. This was just this is crazy, man.

[00:16:09]No, it need a foyer request and I need I still need your name.

[00:16:13]>> Yeah, not I don't think I'm going to give that. But >> you're not going to give that?

[00:16:15]>> I can help you with Hi, >> come on up. Good. How are you?

[00:16:20]>> Wow. She still doesn't want to identify.

[00:16:22]So, she wants to continue with the unprofessionalism. So, uh this is the state of mind of our public servants out here in the city of Bington. uh on full display as you guys can see.

[00:16:38]>> You're faster than I'm off today.

[00:16:41]>> Definitely. Uh >> and one more time.

[00:16:44]>> Definitely.

[00:16:44]>> Terrible. Thank you.

[00:16:48]>> So, we'll see. You guys are not willing to provide a foyer request either.

[00:16:53]>> I'm sorry.

[00:16:54]>> You don't want to give me a foyer request form?

[00:16:56]>> That would probably be a question for one of our superintendents or my directors.

[00:16:59]>> Okay. Are they here?

[00:17:00]>> Tell me again. Will you need a foyer request? That's correct.

[00:17:03]>> Okay. Yeah. You you met both of them, so I don't think they heard your request.

[00:17:07]If you'd like >> I did. I asked for I asked for one. I asked for one. I'm just >> I'll take care of that for you.

[00:17:12]>> Okay.

[00:17:12]>> Make yourself comfortable >> for sure. So, yeah, we'll find out everybody's name, first and last names, their hired dates and salaries. We we'll get all that information off the foyer. They won't be able to hide too much longer once we get that request.

[00:17:30]So, Guys, make sure you stay tuned.

[00:17:37]>> Oh, there's the superintendent right there >> outside with the police.

[00:17:43]>> What do you know?

[00:17:46]What do you know? Wow.

[00:17:52]This is So, this is the superintendent.

[00:17:56]She lady upstairs says this was the direct one of was the director and the other was the superintendent and they obviously called the police on us today.

[00:18:06]So >> ain't nothing they can do though.

[00:18:09]>> Were you here for a car?

[00:18:11]>> A car hit a car?

[00:18:13]>> No.

[00:18:19]So >> when we first came out the door right there, we heard her saying something about how they had programs. So I probably probably running the same narrative in terms of us uh not supposed to be recording programs, but we just we'll just see. We we ask the cop what what did they actually say on 911 for him to come out like this?

[00:18:46]>> Y'all stay tuned.

[00:18:48]>> That um >> Hey, officer. What's your name and badge number, sir?

[00:18:52]>> Officer Cleveland. Start preaching for >> So, can I get the cat number when you're done with her? Cuz obviously they called the police on me. So, >> no sir. I'm involved. So, totally unrelated to you. So, no, you cannot have it.

[00:19:02]>> I can't. Okay. Well, that's to be seen, too. I don't I heard her talking to you about me. So, you're lying. Yes, you did. As soon as I came out, you told him, "Here he is. Right here." I see you.

[00:19:13]>> Hey, so listen. I'm I'm involved in something totally unrelated to you.

[00:19:16]>> Officer Cleveland, you're lying, man. I just heard her tell you about me coming out the door.

[00:19:20]>> No, I'm I'm I'm involved in something totally unrelated to you.

[00:19:23]>> Now you are.

[00:19:24]>> No, no. The whole time I came over here, I came over here for a totally unrelated investigation that I got to work on.

[00:19:29]>> Okay.

[00:19:29]>> Okay. So, I can't give you any information about that. I can provide you anything with that.

[00:19:33]>> But I'm saying when I That's all I'm saying. When I walked out this door, I seen her literally turn around and then look back at you and say, "Here he comes now." I I seen that from my own eyes.

[00:19:42]>> Yeah. She came She came out to tell me something about you and I said, "I'm not here for that cuz I'm not here for you.

[00:19:47]I came here totally unrelated. It's just a coincidence that you happen to be here at the same time."

[00:19:50]>> So So did she explain to you what I was doing though?

[00:19:53]>> She just about us recording?

[00:19:54]>> She just said that she recorded inside the building. Yeah, that's it.

[00:19:56]>> And but do you let her know as an officer I can do it though?

[00:19:59]>> Cuz that would have been great.

[00:24:33]You too.

[00:24:35]>> So from the top GTA family, from the top, man, we came out here to the Bington, Illinois Park District.

[00:24:52]That's to do what we always do. It's to record in public and to make sure our rights won't be infringed on by anyone at any time for any reason. I'm gonna start saying that, too. Let me start putting that out there. So, coming in, uh, I feel like everything was good to go. And there's the director again, TJ Family. Y'all can see her.

[00:25:13]But coming in, you know, everything was good to go. Walking around doing our stuff, you know, you know, doing what we do. When we get upstairs, I guess they got studio rooms or whatever. Everybody Everybody's working out and everything.

[00:25:24]I guess, you know, while we're in the hallway, a lot of people have some type of problem with it, right?

[00:25:31]So, uh, they run and get everybody basically. He They went to get the fitness center lady first.

[00:25:38]>> Hey, what's going on?

[00:25:39]>> Oh, no. Yeah, this guy. We encountered this guy up there at the end.

[00:25:43]>> This guy? Yeah. Yeah.

[00:25:45]>> Yeah.

[00:25:45]>> Yeah.

[00:25:46]>> Yeah.

[00:25:46]>> What's going on, >> man? Same thing. You see the cops are here, right? Yeah. And that nothing happened. So, >> so obviously I'm good to go.

[00:25:54]>> Yeah. Yeah.

[00:25:55]>> How you feel about that?

[00:25:56]>> Did they actually talk to you or >> Yeah, we talked right here. Yeah, we talked to you.

[00:25:59]>> Okay. Yeah. What's What's this about?

[00:26:02]I'm just curious.

[00:26:03]>> Well, it's just >> I'm curious about people.

[00:26:05]>> No, it's okay. That's okay. Well, so what we like to do, we like to go to uh public funded buildings and just exercise our rights to record in public.

[00:26:11]That's it.

[00:26:12]>> Are you Are you with an organization?

[00:26:14]>> No, I'm just by myself.

[00:26:15]>> Okay. Just by you said we go to the >> Well, I mean we in ter we the people. We the people. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

[00:26:20]>> Just you alone are doing it and different places.

[00:26:23]>> Yeah. Just go to different places all over the state of Illinois. We've been to Wisconsin.

[00:26:27]>> Yeah.

[00:26:27]>> Iowa, Georgia, Minnesota. So, we go all over, you know.

[00:26:31]>> Yeah.

[00:26:31]>> Okay. And what are you trying to accomplish and what's the purpose?

[00:26:35]>> So, the main thing is to see if our rights will be respected. I see. And then the second thing is an education cuz a lot of people don't know that we have these rights.

[00:26:42]>> So, when they come in counter and say, "No, he can do it." Then that person's been educated. Kind of like what happened today with you. You didn't know so.

[00:26:49]>> Yeah.

[00:26:50]>> It's okay.

[00:26:51]>> Yeah. You understand though, I assume that it can be kind of intrusive and maybe concerning for someone, you know, who's in a class and there's a dude. It doesn't matter whether it's a dude or if it's a woman or whatever.

[00:27:05]>> Just saying anybody would have >> somebody peeking in the window filming and you could I assume you could understand how that would be a little bit unnerving.

[00:27:13]>> You know what? I'm going to say this. If it was like a say it was a locker room.

[00:27:18]>> Yeah.

[00:27:18]>> Or a bathroom.

[00:27:19]>> Yeah. step outside.

[00:27:21]>> Yeah, for sure. It's kind of getting hot, right?

[00:27:22]>> That's right.

[00:27:23]>> Yeah. So, I I I can understand if it's like a bathroom or something like that.

[00:27:26]>> But how about even doing a yoga class where we're, you know, relaxed and we're in this zen place and then someone shows up and is recording and the flash goes off. I mean, put yourself in our shoes.

[00:27:39]If you were, you know, relaxed, doing your yoga, you come here for some peace and, you know, meditation, all that, and then someone shows up and is peering in the window filming. How would you feel?

[00:27:50]>> Honestly, I wouldn't feel anything.

[00:27:52]>> You'd be good.

[00:27:52]>> I only reason why because I know it's cameras all over this entire building.

[00:27:56]>> Yeah.

[00:27:57]>> Not in that room.

[00:27:58]>> There's one right in the corner. Right up there, right outside the mirror.

[00:28:01]>> Like there's some, you know, those mirrors right there.

[00:28:03]>> Yeah. Yeah. But they have to just in case something Yeah. Think about it. If something happens in that room, they can, you know, they can see what happened.

[00:28:09]>> Oh, I see.

[00:28:09]>> Yeah. So, they're filming >> where we've been film. Okay. And that's the facility for the protection. It's like when you go in a bank, right, and there's a camera and they're filming everything. But let's say we're in a bank. Okay. And you have a right to be in there. Let's say you go to Chase or whatever. And I'm in there and I'm making a deposit. I'm getting cash. Now, I know there's a camera up there. That's for security >> for sure.

[00:28:29]>> But I'm seeing you now filming me with my cash >> in the at the bank.

[00:28:33]>> Yeah. How would how would that would that be different?

[00:28:36]>> I don't think so.

[00:28:37]>> You wouldn't? No. No. Why not?

[00:28:38]>> No, because your eyes whatever your eyes can see, you can record no matter what it is.

[00:28:42]>> Uh-huh. Well, >> it only recorded it up here in your brain, but it's not recorded there where you could post it online.

[00:28:48]>> Yeah, for sure. You just can't do anything nefarious with the information.

[00:28:52]Like if I had your credit card number, >> then that would be illegal if I used it.

[00:28:56]>> But to just capture it.

[00:28:57]>> Yeah. Okay.

[00:28:58]>> Always going to be good.

[00:28:59]>> Yeah. And whereabouts are you from? Are you from Illinois or >> Yeah. Yeah, man. city long suburbs or what?

[00:29:17]>> Where's your next stop?

[00:29:18]>> Ah, you know, uh, that's a great question. Maybe we'll do a Peoria or something.

[00:29:22]>> Have you been to this facility before?

[00:29:24]>> Oh, it's my first time.

[00:29:24]>> This is first.

[00:29:25]>> I rolled past it a year ago and I seen it had a lot of construction. So, Oh, yeah.

[00:29:28]>> And this young lady told me that the pool back there is brand new. Yeah.

[00:33:05]>> Even that though, >> it it was your, shall I say, cultural bias.

[00:33:12]>> Not No, that's a reach. That's a reach, Tom. That's a little bit of a reach.

[00:33:16]Like I said, >> yourself. Can we go buy it?
