Sean Paul Reyes of the YouTube channel Long Island Audit is another good example:

He has multiple videos of himself engaging in constitutionally protected activity -- filming in public -- but police officers routinely harass him, and in some cases they get physical.
In one recent case in Connecticut, he was assaulted and had his phone thrown by an officer who lost his temper, and no other officer intervened:

I get that some people think the First Amendment Audit community is made up of people who are trying to provoke law enforcement, but Reyes is a great example of an auditor who does nothing provocative other than engaging in lawful, constitutionally protected activity, and yet still gets regularly harassed by police and other public servants.
