Supreme Court Rejects Ban on Taping Police Officers

the supreme court has declined to review a decision by the seventh u_s_ circuit of court of appeals that laid out basically at involving case where illinois eight what block people from teaching police officers solak analyzed one and one of those you know few states that attempted to pass such a law and in fact they were the strictest about it uh... if you were caught taking a police officer without his consent i've you could face fifteen years in prison as a result now of course i thought of this is a wave intimidating people dado mold cops accountable and if you catch them in an act of brutality well that's just too bad we don't want evidence of its alicia shutdown right away all but i like that the supreme court is the code declined to listen to this case well because of the fact that ad uh... court of appeals had already made a decision such a law is unconstitutional it violates the first amendment right etc this is the core of the first underscore prostitution really uh... what it does is to allow pseudo poll the government accountable and some of you filling the cops uh... and their in doing a public out of public sphere what i see a right to do that and obviously is and i said uh... reason illinois and and place i getting massachusetts and passes laws with the fact that drops uh... when they were doing something wrong right now oftentimes the cops arrested anyway they'll say interfere with the police investigation public disorder etcetera they'll put that on the record yet i'll drop the charges later but it seems like you're the one at fault and you've got to go through this whole hassle possible legal fees so it's not like this is the end of cops arresting people for taking them but that this is a great step in the right direction now i would prefer the supreme court took the case of rolled on it in the right direction but it's okay to some of court seven district court decision stands when the supreme court does not take the case exactly and and that decision was really good say that we do have a right to actually have a check on our own police off actually and it's important because we think about it had these individuals get paid with taxpayer money and has of public servant patient be held accountable if they're doing something wrong oftentimes we do the stories of police brutality and and it seems like we do that often but it's always existed obviously but we never had like a real record to point to to prove it so now that we have the technology to prove it i think that it's a great thing and anna and it it's not to say that all cops are you know doing these horrible things that we need to look out and make sure that were like they're cops but whenever it does happen they should face consequences for it
