Why do you think it is questionable to video public employees engaged in their day-to-day operations?

I believe that filming is okay and sometimes necessary as long as everything is filmed. The drawback is starting filming after an idiot decides to go toe to toe with an officer.

I didn’t say that I opposed it, I said it was a questionable practice.

I also pointed out that it cuts both ways....

I don’t have an answer, other than I think it’s a bad idea to codify it as illegal to film the police. That would give them a license to go completely out of control with zero oversight and this alleged Republican ought to know better.
