That is not what the First Amendment does. The First Amendment allows him to speak out against the government without repercussion.
“Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
Courts have ruled freedom of the press includes the right to record things which happen in public. Today, that includes taking pictures and video recording. It includes recording the actions of public officials doing what they do in public.
It’s been ruled as precedent; there’s no expectation of privacy in public. Anything you can see you can record, you do not require permission.
I believe it has been ruled under 1A rights.
“That is not what the First Amendment does.”
That is precisely what the first amendment does. The right to record police from public locations has been determined to be protected free speech.

In that moment he was the press. He was also peaceably assembled axis the street at his house. There is nothing illegal about filming things on the street in front of your house.
It also protects people to say stupid $hit like that. And btw, you’re wrong.
The first amendment is pretty wide ranging. It includes freedom of religion and of the press.
“The First Amendment allows him to speak out against the government without repercussion.”
Please cite the 1st Amendment where this is.
