i carry personal recording devices for my own personal security. i am often alone and would rather not have liars railroad me or get into he-said she-said situations - much less an accident - and have people lie about what happened and have no proof they were lying.
In some states it is illegal to tape a conversation without the other party’s consent I believe. It is for phone conversations anyway.

then he will have video evidence you assaulted him and he will win his lawsuit against you.
In the spirit of compromise, how about we let them in with the GG’s on, but after a drawing, the winning customer gets one free shot with a basball bat!?
Good point. Let me revise my earlier statement: I will gently remove your glasses.
so? is he asking everyone’s permission to take their picture?
I believe it's covered in the Constitution Bills, in the 57th Amendment, isn't it?
Or is it in the Declamation?? Something like that!
Let me open up my penumbra. I feel a shower of emanations coming on.
Next these restaurants will be banning CCW. Who do they think they are?
In the State of Illinois, he’s committing a felony by recording me without permission. It will be interesting to see how the law on this plays out.
A proprietor has a right to control recording and photography on his premises, at least in most states.
There are numerous reasons why an owner or manager might wish to prevent such activities. First would be for the privacy of the other customers and the employees. Second would be to guard against devious use of the recordings, and for attack publicity, or for sleazy lawsuits which are used as a shakedown technique.
And anyway, it is a property right of the business.
One the other hand, in some states it is perfectly legal to sound-record personal conversations of your own, and only one party of the conversation need give permission: that can be you, the recorder. I always record conversations with the agents when crossing the border. I just leave my iPhone on the note-taking app. I wish to remember what they asked, and what I answered. I also find that I am actually less nervous when I know that I am recording: don’t know why, but that’s just the way I am. It also could be a protection if someone claimed that I hadn’t declared something which I did declare.
In the state of Washington any store can ban CCW. Although it only carries the penalty of trespassing. And that is if they notice, ask you to leave, and you don’t leave.
yes in some. and that is bad law. but i am able to where i live or if i call anyone anywhere they happen to be. dashcams are legal.
if this wasn’t legal we would not have video of the breitbart guy who exposes liberals on hidden camera discussing how they are more than willing to break the law for politics, and we wouildn’t have audio evidence of planned parenthood covering up statuatory rape cases.

What other bad behaviors do you want businesses to clutter up their doors with posts?
you don’t have any right to touch another person if they don’t want you to. gently or otherwise.
Ok, let me know when you familiarize yourself with the laws regarding recording someone without their permission.
