On July 1, an Indiana law went into effect making it a crime to come within 25 feet of an on-duty police officer if ordered to stay back.

    What we need is a Supreme Court ruling on filming the police but with the current court… I’m not optimistic on how that might go.

      With the current court, they would totally uphold that law as legal. I don’t trust this court to do the right thing any further than I could throw Clarence Thomas with both hands tied behind my back.

    The government won’t protect you from the cops. The cops enforce their authority. The recompense against police overreach is the same as it’s always been: violence

    at this point, everyone should be wearing body cameras at all times. especially around cops.
