If they're endangering somebody, why not make that illegal rather than the recording?

- throwawaycities 5y agoThe goal is usually narrowly tailored laws “no recording officer interactions/arrests within 8ft when it’s potentially dangerous.” There is still a small amount of discretion, but what you propose is a very broad law with total discretion “it’s illegal to endanger people.” They didn’t make recording illegal, any more than a speeding ticket makes driving illegal. They made it a finable offense to record within 8ft of a potentially dangerous police interaction.
