We're the Only Ones Off the Record Enough

In Spite of State Law, Maryland Law Enforcement Officials Still Arresting, Charging People for Recording Cops [More]
Here's the relationship:

We watch you.

You don't watch us.

Or else. Backed by armed force.

Get it?

Uppity damn "civilians."

David, to clarify:

We RECORD you.

You don't RECORD us.

Or else. Backed by armed force.

Get it?

Uppity "sheeple."

Better?

Mack, sorry it wasn't clear--was speaking in their voice.

Still waiting to hear from all of those "good guys who just want to do the right thing".

The silence is deafening.

Hey, maybe we have been lied to about all of those "good guys" in Law Imposement. You don't think its just propaganda, do you?

Nahhh. Can't be.

Where are the protests of this by Oathkeepers?

There may be some good cops, but the evidence doesn't support that idea.

This incident appears to have been a meeting of two halfwits, and contrary to what one might think; combining two halfwits does not make a full wit.

The act of speeding and popping wheelies on a motorcycle in traffic is well over the line of stupidity as are the actions of the LEO who got pissed and decided to enforce traffic regulations while in his personal vehicle and off duty. Enough can go wrong in a high speed traffic stop when the patrol car is fully equipped with lights and siren, and the LEO isn't pissed.

Does Maryland law specifically exempt the use of LEO dash cameras? My guess is that most, if not all, LEO vehicles are equipped with dash cams that not only record visual evidence but also audio evidence without the arrested person’s consent or knowledge.
