go maggie!

[kazooga1234]

@RentAnEducation your wrong she is a reporter thats what she was doing there she even said she was there as a reporter

[RentAnEducation]

@kazooga1234 She's not a reporter.  She's just an idiot with a camera.

[kazooga1234]

@RentAnEducation your wrong the cop was in he wrong and the cop didnt do his job well he did it horribly they should have made it so the people wherent getting sick and the cops should have kept the people from working not keeping the reporter away when the reporter is allowed and BP said that they dont keep reporters away as well

@tonykeywest07 Wrong, official emergency vehicles on public property.

[BakersBoyz]

@RentAnEducation Wrong, cop was an over-weight slob.

[RentAnEducation]

Why is this idiot getting positive reinforcement for being an idiot? The cop did his job well, and was quite professional. "videographer" is trying to create a 4/11 scandal where there is none.

[tonykeywest07]

it looked to me she was rather close to the ambulance when she was filming.

[tonykeywest07]

@trajan74 I saw the video, she was rather close and filming into the ambulance. the person in there has a reasonable expectation of seclusion. You cant stand on a public sidewalk and film into someones window. She was on public property but the inside of the ambulance is not public. right? However after she backed off maybe the officer should have left her alone. He used harassment and intimidation tactics by intruding on her personal space. thats a physical or aural intrusion.

[trajan74]

It's instances like this that assulting an officer should be praiseworthy.

The founders are spinning in their graves. One of our officers of the law is supressing the freedom of the press on the orders of a limey bastard company, BP.
