[0:01](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=1) Let me go, let me go. Let me go.

[0:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=29) Let me go. Let me go. This has nothing to do with the law.

[0:38](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=38) Because there's no reason to issue a ticket, I'm sorry.

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=40) There's no reason to issue a ticket. It's a different perspective, have you seen? And I'm leaving.

[0:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=44) Excuse me, why are they arresting you? What's going on?

[0:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=47) Oh, thank you very much. I... No, no, I have some signs with me.

[0:50](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=50) No, no. I have some signs with me. You're going to let me go right now, sorry.

[0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=54) Don't come any closer. Don't come any closer. Don't come any closer.

[0:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=58) I'm not going. What aren't you going to do?

[0:59](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=59) Fine me because I have a sign with me? Step back, this is a gendarmerie check, so step back, please.

[1:04](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=64) Thank you. There's nothing to indicate that.

[1:09](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=69) We're journalists. We're doing our job, ma'am. Yeah, sure. There.

[1:12](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=72) I'm doing mine too. I can't talk. I didn't understand anything.

[1:16](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=76) And I'm even going home from work on foot.

[1:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=78) Excuse me, no. We're in a democracy. Yes, I can still decide.

[1:24](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=84) I'm a citizen. They take an entity, and we're under requisition.

[1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=88) On what grounds? Your participation in our mission.

[1:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=93) We have demonstrations that have been declared.

[1:36](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=96) That's part of the constitutional rights you're trampling on.

[1:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=100) But your requisition isn't even valid. Your requisition is already illegitimate.

[1:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=105) So don't grab me by the shoulder, I'm going the other way.

[1:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=107) This is an identity check. This is an identity check. But I'm fed up.

[1:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=111) I'm not just wandering around.

[1:55](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=115) I'm not part of it. And

[2:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=133) Change me. And my phone, there's the license. No.

[2:19](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=139) Why?

[2:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=146) No. Excuse me, you grabbed a sign, is that it? No, they wanted to.

[2:29](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=149) So I said no. In that case, they told me, “I can’t get in.”

[2:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=151) I turned back the other way and they grabbed me by the shoulder to apparently come back and put me aside. What did you say?

[2:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=157) What?

[2:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/rbIle3Xvv5R5/en/woman-disputes-identity-check-and-defends-carrying-protest-signs?t=160) Sorry.
