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?

Without the ridiculous assertion about unarmed people, I would agree
with you. Cops have no expectation of privacy at work.
... nor do bureaucrats or politicians.



If a pair of cops, and usually they are out in pairs, can't subdue an
unarmed guy without using deadly force, perhaps they should find another
line of work.

Eric Garner is an example of NOT using deadly force in any overt way
and he died too.

BTW where do you see 2 cop cruisers? TV? I understand it might be tore
in LA
It was one guy on a car in DC, Maryland and Florida.
I never saw 2 cops in a car in all of our travels in the western
states and those cars were few and far between.
There was only one cop in Wilson's car.



Around here, if a cop pulls you over, there's another cop backing he or
she up within a minute.


Wow, that must be one bad place you live. Around here, the only time I see more than one cop at a traffic stop is when there's an accident.

How many traffic stops have you seen (or been involved with) that happened while you were looking, then you timed it to see that backup arrived "within a minute"?

You're so full of ****...


Yup.

Yup Yup Yup
