With the advent of cellphones as a standard device carried by hundreds of millions daily, the ability of citizens to film police and politicians in public settings has increased accountability for those holding positions of public trust.
Unfortunately, a growing trend of judicial tyranny could curtail a person’s right to access their phone to suddenly film an event unfolding before them in a public setting.
First Amendment rights advocates argue that the right to film public events should never be abrogated, given the protections of the U.S. Constitution.
But with the judiciary having more statist judges in place, it’s become more challenging to protect these most basic rights.
In the federal Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in Missouri, a recent ruling has struck down the right to film public officials in a public setting. On the next page, learn how the dispute may have to head to the Supreme Court to get resolved.

I wish i could get my hands on some of whatever she been smoking
Hahahaha you fools they cant make that a law
Of which you are not considered either –Go home air brain and leave us real people alone

Then I demand that the Feds have no right to photo of film me, no IDs, no red light cameras or speeding cameras, no security cameras, no facial recon or airport usage. There if I see it happening, I’ll sue
They don’t want to be videoed, but they video us. We have to have a picture ID, but not to vote. Really twisted laws ment to manipulate us.
