POLICE WHO NEGLECT to confiscate a perp's recording device can wind up facing Internal Affairs review, reprimand or paid administrative leave.
Therefore it's imperative every Officer clearly understands the need to confiscate and/or destroy/wipe videos which may "implicate" them in litigation or be misconstrued by common civilians as "abusive behavior," even when it's clear that said behavior is NOT "abusive," but rather routine police work to trained eyes (as clearly evident in this incident.)

@Joe6179 I don't live in Canada. I live in the U.S. and it is legal to film anyone in public. I guess we have more freedom here to videotape than you do in Canada. Sorry about your lack of freedom to videotape in public there. Maybe you shoud fight for more rights instead of accepting oppression. I always heard Canadians were pussies.

@TheJDFLA youre a dumbass bro, i dont know where you live, nor do i give a shit, but in Canada, if you film someone after they clearly say NO, you can go to jail. go look up you're court ruling, you clearly dont know shit.
@DanielsSFD No, we do not go around video taping police officers all day long. If I encounter one though, I will pull out a camera and start recording, because who's going to defend me if the officer does something out of line? If he conducts an illegal search, for example, I need evidence, because otherwise, the courts will ALWAYS side with the officers. And no, officers do not get respect for simply wearing a uniform. And no, it is not illegal to film cops. YOU need to learn some common sense.
