One point that is valid, a cop doesn’t need the hassle of being filmed and have the person doing the filming suddenly pulling out a gun.
And that’s not just a ‘straw man’ argument, it also provides cops with justification to shoot *anyone* they want.
Got a video camera? The cop shoots you because you might have a gun, too!
What about a can of ScotchGard? You ought to be shot because you might have a 90mm anti-aircraft gun in your pocket!
KEYS? You say you have KEYS in your hand? You should be SHOT because those keys muight give you access to a place that MIGHT HAVE A GUN!!!
All kidding aside, if you can’t stand being video recorded then don’t be a cop.
Well, who can argue with that?
It is also valid that a cop doesn't need someone driving by and pulling out a gun. Likewise, they don't need someone peacefully observing from inside their house and pulling out a gun.
(Geez)
Why would a camera make someone more likely to pull out a gun?
Project much?
I suppose the cop doesn’t need the hassle of citizens with rights, locks on doors. or defense lawyers.
Just let the cop pick out who they want to and shoot them.
After all, this country is all about preventing hassle to cops, and not at all about individual rights.
(sarcasm off)
Cop was being filmed for his own safety and the safety of the public.
HUH???
