Personally, I'm not extremely opposed to the cops listening in to me if they believe I am committing a crime. I hope that I never find myself in that sort of situation, but if I do, I hope that still have enough sense to use more covert means of communication anyway. So, like I always say, if you're not hiding anything, whats the big deal?

It's pretty easy and quick to get a judge to sign of on a wiretap if there is probable cause. If they don't even have that what reason would they really have to eavesdrop?

Now the idea of it being illegal to film cops is a pile of shite. If they are following the law, then the recording should only show legal activities, right? Should be able to film them for at least 24 hours without a permit, right?

Should be able to record them anytime for as long as we would like. They are super-sensitive to cameras but they will just have to get used to it.
