Civil rights groups are concerned that the police will violate their rights during the Inauguration protests so they intend to record their behavior. Meanwhile, the ACLU is demanding that the police turn off their body worn cameras during the events.
D.C. Police say their policy is to only record when there is a police activity and they do not consider monitoring protests an activity.

Quit playing their stupid games.
Commies always insist the Truth be suppressed so their own lies may prevail.
Sounds quite suspicious. Police, keep recording. Same with all viewers.
Like any low life lawyer. They want just the “truth” they control with gaps they can fill with spin...evidence with no context or false context
BS Anyway ACLU I pray your days are numbered too.
They get paid by the government for suing the government? Still ?
All politicians and government officials should have to wear body cams - all the time.
This needs to be stated loudly, especially since the ACLU demands are without merit, and are moot :
"
Yes I know. Tell the ACLU if they want to have it their way all the time to go to burger king.
Bingo, we have a winner.
Misleading headline. That is DC law.
Are the ACLU also going to pass a law making it a criminal offense for citizens to record the event too?
Agreed. It demands repeating. Especially considering that protests are public events held in public places and in such places nobody has a right to privacy. They can be filmed by the police and anyone else that happens to be nearby.
Don't like that? Then stay home.
Another option is possible, since the D.C.police are a 'reactionary force' is or them to turn off all issued body cams
and activate helmet mounted "Go Pro" cameras with Zoom capacity
Given the "Days of Rage" anarchist incident in 1968 at the DNC, I am sure that "GO Pro" would enjoy the additional advertising for providing them to police !
President Trump...please tell them and CAIR to GTH!
Forget all of the fake news and hate Trump news this week.
There is a new great book for this great week co authored by our own LS!
How Trump Won: The Inside Story of a Revolution
Joel Pollak, Larry Schweikart
Kindle Edition
Read what really happened last year, with these two great writers.
For those of us, who endured all of the fake news and lies from both sides of our political nation about Trump. LS was a continuing source of comfort when the mediots lied about Trump with fake news or came out their endless fake polls showing Clinton winning.
If you really want to know How Trump Won, get this great book on Kindle or print.
I just got it on Kindle. You can try a chapter or so for free. I ordered the full book, before I finished the sample.

Thanks to Larry and Joel for a great book. MAGA
ACLU doesn't want it documented how many federal government workers who were supposed to be at work were really protesting while on the clock.
I notice to did not say that they would not have them.
I am okay with this if nothing illegal is going on. But as soon as someone throws something or engages in other illegal activity then the recordings starts.
As long as the protest s limited to holding signs, slogans, etc. and keeping their distance I have no problem with the camera off. The second one idiot protester tries to confront the PD to get a reaction, throws something, cameras get turned on and stay on for the duration.
