A number of cases show how police continue to misunderstand citizens' rights to record their behavior, and they're now neatly compiled into a video from the Cato Institute.
The Examiner editorialized on the subject in June, noting that those who record police frequently are "more of a threat to the jobs of public safety officers than to public safety itself. One is not the same as the other." State legislatures should start addressing this issue to prevent more misunderstandings and wrongful arrests.
