HIPPA is a privacy act....it covers confidentiality...if they would have allowed you to tape the patients face without their permission then your act violates HIPPA.
Can you provide a statutory or regulation citation to back up your claim that HIPAA applies in this incident/scenario? A few things: the patient consented and even requested people video record/broadcast the incident, not all EMS workers are "covered entities" under HIPAA, this incident happened in public where anyone can see said patient.
I'd have to look online for it and honestly I don't have the time nor do I care enough to do so...and if the patient requested that you guys film it then he just waived his HIPPA rights...were you the one filming this?
If this were the whole video you would realize that, the free staters, who are for "peacful protest" do nothing but refuse to obey laws and continue to get in peoples faces. The ems worker in this video was trying to do his job, in this case help one of the "peaceful protesters" who had been injured when a police officer had to restrain him. After dealing with many people filming the patient ( in itself a violation of the confidentiality law binding docters to their patients).
Also dealing with the injured man screaming police brutality. these men and women who serve our country and more often than not have nothing to do with the creation of laws they enforce are being targeted, and for no apparent reason. It brings shame, and rage to my mind when i see these things happen. I am not saying taking the camera was the right thing to do, but i ask you put yourself in that position and try not to beat the crap out of one of those guys in that given situation.
Sadly this kind of incident has happened over and over in keene and other places in NH. If you want to prove your point, then protest, but do not wrongly accuse, antagonize, or be violent to the people who could one day save your life.
I've been telling people that for years,our park rangers out here have arrest powers and they all dress in tactical gear with with crew cuts.The authority complex of these guys is amazing.Soon you will have EMS workers dressing in SWAT gear.
so I get to see 1 sec of what happened and then 17 seconds of a commercial? Someone tell us what happened. Is the dude going to be charged with assault? It looked like the guy with the camera might of been hurt.

"This program is brought to you...."
What program?
A man lifting his arm towards a camera?
Post a proper clip or don't bother!

Wow... The marxists/fasist/power hungry manics are really not responding to well to the free state project are they?

The correct response would have been to kick this thug's 'nads clear out the backside of his clown suit.
This shit is only going to get worse unless we the people make it absolutely clear that we aren't going to put up with it any longer.

Is that the kind of gentle and concerned medic you want moving you around when you have a spinal injury? Not I.

Cops... fine I get it, but an EMS worker?
That's just a whole new low.

I had to add the spot to the end, cause YouTube was cutting the last few frames off of the raw :03 clip.
