With the advent of cellphones as a standard device carried by hundreds of millions daily, the ability of citizens to film police and politicians in public settings has increased accountability for those holding positions of public trust.
Unfortunately, a growing trend of judicial tyranny could curtail a person’s right to access their phone to suddenly film an event unfolding before them in a public setting.
First Amendment rights advocates argue that the right to film public events should never be abrogated, given the protections of the U.S. Constitution.
But with the judiciary having more statist judges in place, it’s become more challenging to protect these most basic rights.
In the federal Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in Missouri, a recent ruling has struck down the right to film public officials in a public setting. On the next page, learn how the dispute may have to head to the Supreme Court to get resolved.
Lol that woman better go back to school !
What do they have to hide???
F**e news
BS!!!
I do not think you have a right to say that! We are still a freedom country.
That will go to theSCOTUS
Democrats in powerful positions only know how to lie, cheat, steal, obstruct, spread hate/violence, cover for each other, make everything about race, play on our emotions, and get away with all types of crimes on their way to getting what they want. They are NOT above the law even though they think they are untouchable. Progressives/Socialists/Communists ALL think the same, just at different levels of insanity.
The hell we dont
What are those moronic politicians afraid of?
Yes they do!!! Federal does not trump supreme!!!
