| Azila (OP) User ID: 1360922 United States09/01/2011 10:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | There are 12 states in total that enforce an all-party-consent law, but only three interpret it to include public places of gathering with absolutely no expectation of privacy. So on one hand, that kind of sucks for people trying to record police misconduct, but on the other, hey, apparently security cameras are now illegal in parts of the Northeast!

I was wondering what the officer would do when I saw another car pull up and start filming. The cop did nothing. Ignored the filmer and did not interact at all. I did not get to see the whole incident but just figured I'd google and see what the deal was with Maryland. .....And Grace will lead me home. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1491379 United States09/01/2011 11:05 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So I guess that means that any MSM can not show anyone getting pulled over, getting cuffed or any accident scene on the news. Is it a felony if they film it for the news at 6 and 11? Hmmmm, seems there is a double standard. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 297520 It just dawned on me that police cars with cameras would also be subject to wire tapping laws, wouldn't they? Regarding the MSM, I guess they break in to my favorite show to cover those high speed car chases anymore. And, what about shows like "Deadliest Car Chases" or some such? I guess those would be illegal too, huh? |
