That doesn't mean it is ethical to escort a reported out simply because of the size of a camera.

The person (leo) in this video did not use excessive force...and he politely asked a number of times.
A cop can arrest me without giving me a good reason?
All the cop said was "Give me your camera and come with me or go to jail" (I think?) he didn't say why he couldn't record the meeting at all.
Perhaps I'm miss informed on my rights...and have an ideal view of the way our laws should work.
I'm not saying the officers were in the right , or handled it correctly , just saying I wish I knew what the laws were for filming a public meeting .?

I agree..you need to be breaking a law . I also think police officers who put people under arrest without stating the law in violation, should be charged with a violation.
I'm just saying as well these officers obviously were told to go and stop this guy from filming. and we don't see what lead up to the gimme your camera.

“Unlawful Entry/Remaining” and “Disorderly Conduct.
