Citizen Assaulted for Filming Governor John Kitzhaber Event (Oregon)
Breitbart TV ^ | September 23, 2010 | James O'Keefe

Posted on 09/24/2010 11:44:49 AM PDT by penelopesire

Approximately 10 minutes into the speech the moderator informs the public not to film. The citizen continues to film, stating it is his First Amendment Right. The camera is smashed into his face. This is clearly seen on the video.

“But what is most troubling - what was being hidden?”

Probably trying to protect their tax exempt status. It was taking place at a church. ???

Just like mooslime animals, liberals always resort to violence when they don’t get what they want.

Take back up with you when you do this folks. I am only in Idaho, email me. The assault with the camera to the face was plain. I expected more obvious injury. Between these statist politicians and thugs disgracing LEO uniforms, there is a lot of confusion about the power to prohibit someone from recording reflected light.

Hmmm... Explain how he doesn’t have a right to film a public forum?

Hmm...Explain how I claimed he didn't?

I hope the fellow with the camera reads your comment. He seems to need a refresher.

I hope the camera guy puts all those thugs in jail for assault and sues the church for failing to control it (Hey, I thought it was the democrats who wanted churches to lose their non-profit status for mouthing political opinions??).

I hope they do what this lawyer is advising. This is exactly the kind of stuff that Obama and Holder signaled that they would tolerate when they dropped the NBP case and when Obama asked his supporters to ‘get in their faces’.

A public figure (governor) giving a public speech has no right to expect or demand recording not be done. Period.

It was on private property. I guess we've lost the right to decide what we allow on our own property?

Wonder if Sen. George Allen had just had that guy filming him beaten up, instead of calling him “Macaca”, would not have been such a problem?

The Obama Administration is currently on record as saying Privacy Does Not Exist in ‘Public Places’. Is this where the Double-Standard of the Self-Anointed kicks in?

Not at a political event, but a sale. I was taking some pictures and was told I couldn’t. I said, “why not”. I was told it wasn’t allowed. A supervisor became upset and told me again I couldn’t take pictures. I took her picture. There was a LEO present for crowd control and they asked her to ask me to stop taking pictures and why don’t I leave. I asked her what law was I breaking? She had no answer. She asked me why don’t I leave anyway. I asked on what authority did I have to leave. I explained my reasons for being there and why I was taking pictures and that I was standing up for my constitutional rights and I would leave when it was clear it was my decision to leave not theirs.

My son thought I was going to jail. I said I did nothing wrong and was not going to give in to their Gestapo tactics and relinquish my rights. It’s important.

I applaud this guy and people who video police doing their duty. And not to forget those protesting at abortion clinics. Obey the law when it is just, challenge it when it’s not. Always stand up for your rights.

Okay, what, in your obtuse way, did you mean by: “
Uh...The freedom to assemble doesn’t mean “freedom to assemble film footage.”
