he aint even a real copper...he is a £200 a week fake twat...... this country is fucked.

[result321]

Give me a good reason why one should STOP to film?

Idiot officer, no matter what race, religion or function!

Just a pure little overreacting neurotic a....h...e with a facist mindset.

Give em a UNIFORM and they OVERREACT especially the LITTLE GUYS.

Same thing in any country all over the world!!

Most of you scum bags support the police and probably think before this video that it was illegal to film in a public place. Sorry to burst your bubble you selfish government corrupt citizens... but your all WRONG =)

[TheLahness]

@Chaoitcme True, both parties could have resolved the situation in seconds and without fuss. But that's not to say the cop was out of line by asking what he was filming. I too am a British citizen, and if someone is filming I would like a cop to ask them what they are filming, better to be safe than sorry. And its not like your feelings would be destroyed simply by telling a cop what you're filming :/. Some people just exaggerate situations. 

[Chaoitcme]

@TheLahness Yes the cameraman could have been more tactful. The cop could have been nicer as well. The cop walks into the camera and starts complaining that the cameraman is filming. That is bull. The cop then tells the cameraman to shut up. The cop was being more out of line than the cameraman.

[TheLahness]

@Chaoitcme It is free, a simple "I'm filming to show my family what England is like " would have solved the whole situation. The same thing has happened before, and the police ask because for all they know you could be a terrorist filming for weak points or filming to show recruits what to attack.

[Chaoitcme]

@TheLahness For being part of the free world the U.K. is not that free if you have to state what you are doing when you have a camera in a public area. The cop was a dick and just got into the camera.

[TheLahness]

@Chaoitcme Well, if the camera man had said that in the first place the whole situation could have been avoided. But instead, he had to play the dickhead. Watch the cop, he says "Can you tell my why you are filming here" And the camera man just goes "I have a right to, human rights blah blah". All he had to do was explain why he was filming, simple as.

[Chaoitcme]

@TheLahness Or they could be filming a family vacation. Just because there is the possibility that people could be filming for destructive intent does not mean that everyone should forfeit their rights to film.

[Chaoitcme]

What a fucking idiot pig. He walks into your line of sight and then says you are filming me. He does not even know the law. He can hardly even speck English. To be a police officer you should at least be able to speak the native language properly.

UK needs a revolution!!
