A Lesser Charge

An 18-year-old from Pennsylvania is facing a felony charge after he was caught videotaping a police officer handing out a traffic ticket on a public street...

Carlisle Police Chief Stephen Margeson suggested a guilty plea to a lesser charge might be appropriate.

I agree, Chief. What would you like to plea to?

Hasn't the Supreme Court already ruled on this issue? Or did they just say that videotaping the cops wasn't obstruction?

This kind of thing just makes me so mad I don't know what to say without advocating bad things.

It's so backwards.... instead of public servants working for us, we live at their mercy.
