It's called the 1st amendment. Google glik v. city of boston and read why it's unconstitutional to arrest someone for videotaping an officer while performing their duty.

To the fools that are on here slamming the ACLU on this victory' you're a coward(racist at that!) and a total JERK-OFF!!!. People' these morons are the afterbirth of the country.

[mark bowers]

People!!! please understand that the individuals that comment on here that thinks that no matter what' police officers are justified in their actions' remember this. Not all police officers suffer from this type of nonsense. And the ones that do and the idiots that share's their views probably have family members that are cops AND THEY HATE YOU!!!!!

I was arrested for recording Hawthorne Police on 11-9-2012, and spent four days in jail before having to pay bail, despite having done nothing illegal. I found out after my release, I am charged with obstruction of justice, resisting arrest, and other things. Click my name, its my most recent upload, 2 minutes long. I am completely polite, cooperative, yet resisted arrest.

[Bobby Thrillz]

no, but most cops know of something wrong that another cop did, and they didn't tell anyone.

[OnediZZyDrunK]
