What constitutes a "lawful" order from police?

I agree and I wouldn’t be surprised if that police station put those things in place. We have these things where I work, not to mention metal detectors that members of the public have to go through for entry…Yet despite all these things, we still get a lot of trouble that has to be dealt with.

How about when someone is taking photos of a police station from a PUBLIC sidewalk. A building that is in plain view of every citizen? Should cops detain/arrest for that?

Just for that? Of course not.

Of course not? Cops do it often! There’s a guy on YouTube that makes a living doing just that. He sues the town and wins. And the people have to pay. Every time.

No … I mean about the part where you said the guy sues towns and wins.

Here’s an older piece, from when they were first getting popular on YouTube. Not sure which of the two auditers are who, they use a few different platforms with different monikers.

New York Post – 24 Jul 21

‘First Amendment auditors’ aim to cancel cops via YouTube

Armed with camera phones and prickly attitudes, a new generation of agitators is making big bucks by getting in the face of officers in public places.

He’s making his money by getting followers on YouTube, not by suing the towns.

And by winning lawsuits.

Okay …

But then, that’s the only thing that will give Towns and Cities incentive to reign in ignorant and power abusing cops.

Whatever it takes as long as they’re trained in their legal obligations as an officers of the law.

I think we can all agree the police in this country are out of control and the system needs to be cleaned.

WuWei · 2022-12-11T15:14:08.407Z

The language is bleeped.

BlueHeron · 2022-12-11T16:27:27.808Z

I’ve read where 2 of the officers were fired. Any officer that was there and witnessed what happened and didn’t report the incident should also be fired, IMO.
