A US Census worker came to my house today in Greenville SC to give me a piece of paper and punch in the GPS coordinates. He would have not told me about the GPS unless i asked. Then his explanation was to "matchup" the house better. I thought I was very nice to him.
Then as he walked around the neighborhood i shot some video as is my right even on a public street muchless my own porch.
He then came back and rang my doorbell to interrogate me on why i was taking his picture.
Particularly interesting is how he yelled he worked for the Federal Government. And I was invading his privacy even though he was just at MY front porch punching in a GPS to my front door.
He didnt walk away until I informed him it was MY constiutional right to film him. He wasnt happy at all. My neighbors were alarmed at his tone with me as they were walking by. They couldnt figure out why he was freaking out.
This is really disturbing. It seemed as though my camera was a gun to him. Even before i came back out to film he was staring at me as soon as i walked out. He was watching me before i even filmed him. I think it was because I asked about the GPS which he wasnt going to explain.

tell that to the paparazzi. This guy was on his own property filming a guy that merely said he was with the census. Who knows if he really is with the census? Anyway, if you are out on the street, thats public property and you can film all you want. He was not demeaning or threatening.
Census data was used to help put the Japanese in internment camps. For the record, Glenn Beck is a waste of flesh. Also, these census workers are just doing their jobs and should not be bothered or hurt.
Willatron, What law are you referring to? Do you have a Federal code or a specific case? If not don't assume there are laws that take away these inalienable rights to protect your home.
What if this guy was actually canvasing the area to case out the homes, and saw he was being taped and was ticked off because this home owner just ruined his idea to rob everyone on the street.

Don't you people get it, he was on his property! I would have had my wife film this retard as well, for the simple fact he came back onto my property to provoke an altercation. What if he would have decided to become violent and broke his camera or worse, while he was holding it? Then he would have had no proof other than their word, see dumb dumb, if something would have happened his lovely wife would have had it all on film :-) live and learn as they say!!!
Caroleeena, You said he provoked a man who was only doing his job? You need to entertain the fact that he provoked the argument by coming back onto this man's property. The homeowner had every right to do what he did. What if the man was really just canvasing the area so he and his crew could break in those homes? and was upset because this homeowner was actually observant to a stranger walking around and canvasing his neighborhood and caught him doing a no good deed! WAKE UP!!!
Willatron, are you trying to say there is a Federal law out there that prohibits you from unwanted filming or taping of an individual? If so please, please give me the federal code or rule on this. This is the most presumptuous made up fairy tale bullshit that I have ever heard. You just made the newest edition of the law review. Congrats moron for trying to mislead others in thinking another constitutional right has been so freely taken away.

Think before you say stupid stuff.
