    If we are going to record police doing their jobs... I think it's fair we record every person doing theirs as well. Not to mention cameras on every street corner so we can record criminals too.

    Let's catch white collar criminals plotting greedy plans and let's catch everyday workers logging into the 10C when they should be servicing clients (stealing time from their place of employment).

    There are cameras for other high risk occupations.

    I guess you are purposely missing my point. The stupid woman wouldn't have had her phone broken had she not decided to pull her phone out right next to cops that are making an arrest. She had no business being there. Period. Every fucking thing a cop does in his day to day operation does not need to be recorded by attention seeking whores.

    Agree people need to stay away from activity but we can not ever restrict anyone from taking pictures of anyone/thing in public space. Fundamental right. And if I was a cop would hate having my every move recorded and empathize with them. But rights trump and that's a good thing. We 're not in china or Russia.

    I don't think it's a fundamental right for someone to be nosy.

    Edit: if that woman was across the street, out of the way like the person who recorded her, it wouldn't bother me at all.

    In public yes it absolutely is. Think of what you are proposing to give up.

    I'm not proposing to give up anything. I just don't think she needed to be in the way. Which she obviously was.

    So we are in agreement then?
    I think rgambs response has it covered.

    Also, cops wearing cameras protects you, me and the cops. Same goes for the public recording cops.

    I never limited it to office workers- I included every occupation. Why be selective?

    And are you denying the interconnectivity between a consumer of the illegal drug trade and the violence associated with the illegal drug trade? Forget Mexico then... how about in the streets of Los Angeles or some other place?

    You contribute more than you care to admit.
    I contribute ZERO to gangs, cartels, or other shady groups of the like and that's a fact jack! :bee:

    If you grow your own, I'd be inclined to agree with you.

    If you buy it in a bag from some dude, I'd be of a different mindset. The illegal drug industry is built on offering it's product to consumers. Violence is associated with the production and distribution of illegal drugs. As such, the consumers are a part of the formula for the drug violence we experience.

    There is a pretty big middle ground between those two options!

    Did Rev. Cortly Witherspoon just say that someone named Judge Renquist declared that running from the police is against the law? I just heard it on CNN. I hope somebody else heard that or knows what he's talking about because I dont.

    Police have probable cause to detain anyone that runs when they show up in a "high crime area".

    This person is recording a violation of rights, if cops can't handle someone across the street holding a phone, they have no business in high-pressure life or death situations.

    Your statement is tantamount to suggesting cops should have a right to impunity. If we can't record them and they investigate themselves that's exactly what it is, impunity at large.
    Have you ever entertained the thought that recorded video of police tactics and procedures may be studied by some dubious individuals to further their planning of a crime?

    No I hadn't.
    I don't see how much tactical advantage could be gained... The idea with crime is to not be engaged by police at all... Procedural knowledge is already pretty widely available.

    An even more dubious individual may want to know procedures of police that encounter suspects so if they were in a position similar they would know what was coming and may give them a slight advantage of escape/evade.

    I'd say such an individual has likely been exposed to the procedures of cops many times in their life.
    Even if this happens, I would say it is worth the risk to protectus from rogue officers.

    And??? How is that relevant???
    If a person wants to commit suicide by cop they don't need to study videos for intel.
    On top of that, there are thousands of videos of police procedures already available all over the internet so I don't see how this would be much of an issue.

    Not what I was getting at Rgambs…You said the idea of crime is not to engage the police at all…Well pointing a gun or rushing and attacking the police is a crime as much as liberal society does not want it to be.

    I have and also thought of police being identified when they do covert operations.

    The police will have to adapt because the fundamental rights of being censored, as they do in China and Russia can't be a part of a free and civilized society.

    Liberals don't want their police force that they rely on for protection and understand and appreciate what they do in daily based to be seriously hurt or killed.

    Being a police officer does though come with the bourdon of taking necessary response and there have been many instances in last few years, caught on camera that seems to show overstepping that line.

    Pretty simple in my mind that challenge is appropriate response to threat.

    I know it's hard at times in split second and give officers benefit of doubt but some instances are clear violations. They are very rare in totality.

    As to using camera recording police, we can not take away this fundamental right but we can also not have a civilian get in the way of an operation.

  • But how long will the US be a "free and civilized society"? With these problems we're having and the talk of police shutting down the cell phone frequencies? We're already a conservative, fearful and on our way to a China and Russia type society.

    Please explain to me how the police could jam a phone to prevent it from recording. If they could mess with the towers, it would prevent people from either making a call or connecting to the internet. But it wouldn't prevent people from recording unless laws were passed that make that illegal.

    Either way, we are not even close to being a Russia or China type society.
