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.

Probably the best thing to do, for the cops, is for one to keep his eye on the filmer to ensure that is all that is happening is film being taken.
