Jailed for Filming A Cop

But he must have found an intelligent judge (who is not a liberal), because he SUED, and COLLECTED. It’s a “worrying trend” that is spreading across this formerly free country: BANNING the filming of cops while they do their duty. The only cops who should object are those who are exceeding their authority, and KNOW it. And it is a “blatant attack” on the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States. An Orlando, FL man was arrested, and his cell phone “confiscated” (stolen) by cops when he refused to stop filming them at work. But he got his revenge, when the court awarded him $15,000.00 AND got his phone back. The cop involved was well known for exceeding his authority. He has been cited for it many times before. He must be kin to Obama. Or at least taking a clue from him. The article doesn’t mention any punishment meted out to this cop, but he SHOULD have been punished, or even FIRED because of his HISTORY of exceeding his authority, (FreedomForce)
