  I like the idea but how does one go about getting a photo of a police officer and their badge number etc without getting smashed into the sidewalk face first?

    IANAL- but if you are in a public space, police officers can be photographed/videotaped for any/no reason. There is no presumption of privacy.

      Tell that to the cop that doesn't give a shit about what's actually legal and will put you in cuffs for recording them anyways.

        But then you hit a jackpot and a 5, 6 or even a 7 figure settlement. Which will unfortunately be paid by the taxpayer.

          One may have to decide which is easier: scan a law enforcement officer or study leet code problems for a month.
