Until the officer deliberately approaches you to prevent you from recording?
- jjcon 5y agoThe law specifically states you can film if the officer is interacting with you
- wave_function 5y agoHow does this even work? Police officer walks to within 7 feet of you: you’re not allowed to film. They tell you to stop filming and then suddenly you’re allowed to because they’re interacting with you?
- lovich 5y agoSo he walks up to you silently and then arrests you for having recorded him within 8 feet while he had not interacted with you. The cops do not follow the law in good faith ever and this gives them another trivially abused tool, like when they would stop people because they "smelled" pot that never existed
