It's probably going to be used to pile on bullshit charges on people too. Like oh you had a phone on you? You didn't seem to be recording but what if you were. Also is that a dash cam I see?
He initially introduced the bill with a 15-foot restriction that was later amended down to address concerns it would be unconstitutional.
That doesn't make any sense, lol.
A Democrat said it was unconstitutional so he lowered it and the Dems said "Compromise? Ooooh, shiny!"
yes it does, if the radius is 15 ft that's a larger "no-cam zone".
It makes sense that civil rights groups would fight for a minimal infringement, but I mean a small change in distance making it constitutional really doesn't make sense.
that video is fucking horrible.
rip daniel shaver
Probably yes to all the above, they will never side with the recorder if they can help it.
Porky is going to aggressively walk up to you then beat the shit out of you for filming.
Guy on the ground bleeding and battered: "I was at least 20 feet away!"
Porky: "Oh, yeah. How did I beat you then?"
It means people can’t film cops at their own traffic stops. Another thing that can be used to escalate simple traffic stops
Exceptions were made for people at the center of an interaction with police, anyone standing in an enclosed structure on private property where police activity was occurring and occupants of a vehicle stopped by police as long as recording in those instances didn't interfere with police actions.
as long as recording in those instances didn’t interfere with police actions
There's the free pass
At least Arizona/it's government will be the first place that gets fucked over once the Southwest water shortage gets really bad.
As with anything like this that happens in a red state tho: Sucks ass for what minorities/non-shitty people who do live there.
Wearing an 8 foot radius hoop skirt so no cop can interfere with my filming
They made it legal to search homes without warrants within 100 miles of the borders, they don't give a shit about the constitution if they can't use it as window dressing
Because they've been in "naked exercise of power" mode since 2000 and now they digivolved
Will they discard filmed evidence in court due to it being obtained illegally?
pig comes within 8 feet of my cam
die, criminal scum
Cop steps too close to surveillance camera
is allowed to destroy it by virtue of stepping too close to it
Guessing this will make civilian recordings of police brutality inadmissible in court
