I really don't like this. Supreme court has ruled you can film anything in public from public which I believe is what this law is looking to limit. Bad look for republicans.
Im not for this law btw. While i can see what the intent of the law is, ie. keep the retards with phone camera away and out of the faces of the cops when things are happening, I agree this is be very abused.

Everyone bitching about the ability to film, nothing in the law says you can't film, but the media has made that the talking point, so that's what you're sticking with.
Congrats on being on the side of the enemy with no ability to think for yourself.

In practice what will happen is when the cops don't want you filming their negligence, they'll just claim they asked you to back up (no matter how close you are) and that you violated this law.

25 feet is plenty close enough to film. Zoom on phones are good at much further distances. You don't have to get closer.

Well that's very pot meets kettle.
Are you suggesting this law will be used within good faith and never abused or manipulated to prevent a First Amendment right?

I get what they're trying to do here....the problem is the dumb dick heads it'll be left in the hands of to enforce

Proponents argue the new law will create a buffer-zone to help ensure the safety of officers and that bystanders would still be close enough to film police interactions.
People with ill intent will violate this buffer zone. How many officers have been injured by people filming them?

Where's the evidence that this is a valid argument? When has an officer ever been unsafe in a situation that this law will now prevent? If someone wants to hurt an officer, they already were planning on breaking the law and won't give a shite about this. This is like dems trying to take guns away from good guys in an effort to stop criminals with guns who are already breaking laws. It's asinine and does nothing but provide for more police abuse.

quote:and what happens when the officer closes the gap?
Sure, and 5 ft doesn't make the officer unsafe. This law only enhances the officer's ability to over reach their authority. If they don't like something you're doing...lock em up for coming to close. What if I am doing something and then the officer comes within 25ft of me? It's already illegal to harm an officer, so this only serves to harm people with good intentions within 25ft of an officer.
you just have to keep retreating meaning that officer can essentially control your access/movements?
what if he closes the gap to just arrest you?
How long "in the bubble" for them to arrest you? a nanosecond? so officer takes one step towards you, breeches the bubble, and now has probable cause?
is breaching that considered imminent threat? meaning they can shoot you for getting too close?
While yes, 25' is plenty close enough to film it's still a bullshite law.

Surely police would never lie and say you were encroaching on them to injure them and hit you with trumped up charges. Nope, no way. We definitely didn't see that just happen to a very high profile golfer.

More questions.
In many places, this could mean you can’t be on your own property (perhaps even your porch or deck) and film an officer doing his duty. How the frick is that legal?

I dont. It will make cops jobs harder, now dealing with more crowd control and crime.

I get wanting some buffer zone when you're trying to detain someone in a tense situation, you don't know if someone is running up with a weapon, etc. Look at those retards the other night in the Baton Rouge lagoon thing running up and pushing cops as they're trying to arrest a kid.
but most cops will likely abuse it to arrest/ticket people

This won’t prevent anyone running up with a weapon.

Pushing cops is already illegal.
