[QUOTE="jakeman, post: 2233757, member: 10690"] What I find so troubling, is the fact that the police do not want people filming them, and in some jurisdictions have enacted specific laws to make filming them a crime, but they are installing security cameras all over this country to film citizens. There are "red light" cameras in almost every state, and NYC has just recently put up cameras in many locations, for the explicit purpose of filming the citizenry going about their daily business. Not to mention the dash cams in almost every LE vehicle these days. Why the double standard? I'm a former LEO, this is troubling to me. Very much so. There was never a time when I was doing my job that I would have felt threatened enough by someone with a video camera to have stopped what I was doing in order to confront the cameraman. [/QUOTE]
