Are Cameras the New Guns?
Bullshit.

And a great moneyquote from the comments:

"I understand people not wanting to have their actions recorded. However, as public servants, with salaries paid by tax dollars, in the role of protecting us, we should be allowed to record them at any time they are doing their job. The idea that I could be prosecuted for recording an arrest, or even my interaction with a public servant, seems simply wrong.

In this country, we are innocent until proven guilty, and if we are treated improperly by public servants, we should be allowed to gather evidence to correct the wrong."
