A new bill introduced in the Texas state legislature makes it illegal
for average citizens to record police officers within a certain area.
House Bill 2918, which was introduced by Dallas Rep. Jason Villalba, a
Republican, would make such an act a Class A misdemeanor.

If passed, average citizens would have to be 25 feet away from a
police officer when recording and Texans carrying a handgun would have
to be 100 feet away when recording. In a tweet, Villalba wrote, “To
anyone who doesn’t like HB 2918 - Deal with it. I stand with cops who
keep my family safe. If you don’t like it - vote me out of office.”

That tweet was subsequently deleted and replaced with another one
reading, “HB 2918 is meant to protect officers, NOT restrict the
ability to keep them accountable. It DOES NOT prohibit filming."

Because, you know, cops shouldn't have to answer when they shoot and
kill unarmed citizens, eh?

You must spend 12 hours of your day searching for crap to come up with
this. Sure, Villalba is an idiot but his political affiliation doesn't
support that. There are plenty of dumb Democrats, too.
