Quoted: I saw one where an auditor (Amagansset Press - who I do not like to watch; he's kind of obnoxious at times) asked a police officer which government agency do you go to for a "press credential" after the officer demanded to see his (which they always do in these videos). View Quote You can point to the first amendment for that. it is specifically a right of the people (individuals). The Bill of Rights was passed as an interlocking package of amendments and the tenth sets a hierarchy of rights of individuals over powers and authority granted to governments. The corporate press has tried mightily to hijack the right to a free press (the right of individuals to publish their thoughts and writings) even to the point of suppressing individual writings in their attempt to control the narrative. There are a number of posts in this thread that illustrate their success in pushing thos narrative. |

I'm surprised (well not that surprised) at how many people don't know that "the press" in the 1st Amend referrers to "the printing press," ie. the means of distributing information. There was a big shit show around the time of the founding where the crown was restricting who was allowed to own/operate printing presses in order to control what information was spread. The 1st Amend was a direct response to that

I love the posters who think first amendment auditors are shitheads. Well if you don't support the first then fuck the second amendment as well then. You should be supportive of anyone who makes sure the .gov respects ALL of our rights. The .gov trying and stopping filming in public buildings thing is such bullshit when .gov literally are filming everyone that is around and in their buildings and police officers are filming with their bodycams. If the .gov can film you then we can film them.

Quoted: well that may be the case in NY CITY....but he wasnt IN NY CITY View Quote Which NY police department is exempt from state law? The law specifically authorizing recording inside a police department was passed by both the city commission as a city ordinance and the legislature as a state law. It was written to stop the NYPD from arresting people who filmed police interactions. |

Quoted: Katz v. US View Quote That case deals with government wiretapping of a public phonebooth and has extremely questionable application. Really has nothing to do with this; in fact, that case references cases that more directly apply such as the following: "What a person knowingly exposes to the public, even in his own home or office, is not a subject of Fourth Amendment protection. See Lewis v. United States, 385 U. S. 206, 385 U. S. 210; United States v. Lee, 274 U. S. 559, 274 U. S. 563. But what he seeks to preserve as private, even in an area accessible to the public, may be constitutionally protected." e.g. perhaps people reporting crimes may be protected from silly auditors doing audits for Youtube clicks. |

Quoted: Because Boomers love cops no matter how bad they are. View Quote Most reasonable people want the cops doing actual police work that benefits their communities because they're paying taxes for exactly that. They don't expect people (cops) making average wages to be lawyers and don't want to pay the type of person that could be a cop and a lawyer the salary that would be required for that. If these auditors were people that were interacting with the police indirectly and exposing what some of us might see as police overreach or corruption such as that other Youtuber - Whistlin' Diesel - some of us would support them. ...but actually these auditors are simply timewasters that are getting anti-cop ACAB commies to watch their videos for click revenue. How many additional officers should John-Q public fund so that Mr. Auditor can make a stream of click-revenue videos for your consumption? |

Quoted: Nobody really believes this guy is doing anything to "preserve" or "restore" our rights, do they? Why did he never tell us what law he was referencing? why didn't he link the law in the show notes?

Given these videos, it is pretty obvious that one should be recording themselves simply for their own safety.
Given the tactics and response of the officers who have a camera on themselves as well as ceiling mounted, it prevents footage from being "lost" making it one persons word against another. The glaringly obvious fact that a policy doesn't trump an actual law really shows how unfit for the job many are. Keep these videos coming. |
