tvc184 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 It really just adds teeth to an existing law of interfering. It does not prohibit recording. It only prohibits people closing in on officers. It is only 25 feet so less than 10 yards. We routinely push people back at least that far anyway whether recording or not. With the new craze of videoing everything, people are getting within arms reach of the police and everyone else and shoving cameras in their faces. That makes for a dangerous situation for the police trying to conduct business. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote
mat Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 The title to the article doesn't quite explain it that well. How strange. Quote
EnlightenedMessiah Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Typical. Put cameras on every policeman and this wouldn't even be an issue. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote
thetragichippy Posted March 16, 2015 Report Posted March 16, 2015 Typical. Put cameras on every policeman and this wouldn't even be an issue. 2013 Statistics 14,196 murders 79,770 rapes During 2013, there were an estimated 11,302,102 arrests....... Yet the media and some people want to focus on a few POSSIBLE bad cops. That is a good statement for how screwed up the mind set of this country is. Quote

tvc184 Posted March 17, 2015 Report Posted March 17, 2015 Being able to videotape keeps everybody honest... Which has very little or nothing to do with this proposed law. Quote
tvc184 Posted March 17, 2015 Report Posted March 17, 2015 The title to the article doesn't quite explain it that well. How strange. Yes, the title seems completely bogus and is meant to skew the law's intent. Sensationalism at its finest. Hard to believe, right? Quote
