Rights in California? You ain’t got no stinkn rights, only what the state says.
Intimidation and unconstitutional.........SUE TEH BASTARDS!..............
THE MOST fundamental tenant of progressive democrats is killing babies. If Trump were going to send in the National Guard to protect killing babies the democrats would demand the full force of every branch brought in to keep the slaughter going.
If the photographer was on public property there’s a winnable lawsuit there.
Somehow this incident went from the cops asking the photographer to discontinue filming and his ignoring it, to being detained in a cop car because he would not make his ID available in front of a hot spot like an abortion clinic. He could easily have said the ID was in the car and apparently didn’t.
He was not arrested as he was released at the point and was only issued a citation to appear in court at a later date. So, he didn’t provide ID, he was in a hot spot at an abortion clinic and was asked by the people in the clinic to stop, and this incident was part of a larger controversy involving undercover videos, which also prompted investigations by Congress and other authorities.
He walked into it and failed to assist LE in taking care of it. For FACE purposes, a definition which has been adopted by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in Planned Parenthood v. CLA is that a statement is a true threat if a reasonable
person making the statement would foresee that it would be
interpreted by the person to whom it is made as a serious
expression to inflict harm or assault. It is a felony.

Common sense dictates that if you want to film in such circumstances, you need to directly stream what you are filming to a safe location. Granted, the cop and, or leftist might still trash your gear, but they won’t get away with it as easily.
