Hey you cops-can-do-no-wrong morons.The citizens of this nation, formally known as the sovereigns!, have every right in the world to stand around watching what their public servants do. They have every right to stand at a distance taking pictures of their public servants at work. At a distance. If the cop said anything, it should have been "stand over there, and don't use a flash." Instead he gets on a little power trip because he is a cop and tries to intimidate his employer, a citizen who pays his salary. Fascists. As for respect, how about cops having a little respect for the people they serve.

Exactly Larry....good points...
This is because it's primarily power that attracts young men to the job. You know...the guy who really got off on being a hall monitor and the like....bullies who found a legal way to bully.

Hey Larry (or minnow posting under another unregistered name?) -
Nowhere has it been posted that cops can do no wrong. And it has not been posted that boilermaker didn't have the right to take photos, let alone watch. And there are far more cops that respect the public than don't.
Minnow - most of us became cops to save your a$$ from the bullies. How come it's OK for you to call all the cops bullies, but no one can put all drug users into the same boat???
Try reading the posts before you start calling us morons.....

The actual number is 25-50% of cops are there for the wrong reasons. I can see it in the people I know from high school who became police. At least 35% joined for the power...maybe more.
Cops are becoming smarter and better educated as the decades pass, probably due to the fact that police work now pays better in comparison to other jobs than it had in the past.
I'm all for at least half the patrol people being women. This would definatley keep male officers testosterone in check as well as being better for the general public as well.

I know everyone here has seen these shows on TV that put together pieces of home movie tape together, like Max-X or AFV.
I was watching one a while back (maybe a year or better) and it was during some protest or something and a guy was video taping what was going on when a couple of officer's approached him and told him that he did not have permission to take photographs or video of them and they had to stop filming.
Is this a state by state type thing when it comes to the general public recording (pictures, video, whatever) something that is happening as long as they are not interfering or involved in what's going on?
