Where did all the freedom loving Americans run off to?

If sb1208 passes in the house

And its not struck down as a violation of constitutionally protected rights. States can't violate the constitution with silly laws like this.

Even with our current federal government? The constitution doesn't matter if it isn't enforced.

On the bright side, this probably means you could refuse to turn over ANY footage to the police by Pleading the Fifth.

That only works if the police respect ANY law...

So don’t point a camera at them. I mean they’re cops, there’s so many better things to point at them.

My butt plug!

Good way to get beat to death.
Don't talk to police.

Can charge, but it'll still get tossed, no?

Then we just make it a felony to record stuff in any office...CSPAN is so screwed, and so are we.

I think this is a bit overblown. They only changed "interfering" from a misdemeanor to a felony. They didn't change the definition interfering. If you're filming the cops from a safe distance and not interfering, you have an easy to win lawsuit on your hands if they arrest you for legal filming.

Guess every Tesla and anyone with a dashcam will be automatically in violation.
And any establishment/property that has security cameras or a doorbell camera.
That feeling when you're doing everything according to the law, then a cop walks into the frame and you become an instant felon.
