The cop, who is a supervisor and a sergeant, actually came across as not only ignorant of the laws but as a slightly stupid person...
Not sure... all I do know is that, even when it is legal, stop and ID'ing people who have no broken a law leads to more negative interactions than anything else. Politicians need to change these stupid laws... they remind people of the Gestapo. We are supposed to be free to move, use our eyes, speak, protest, etc.His entire argument seemed to be that because he wanted someone's ID they had to provide it and that's it.
If he thinks you're suspicious then you are and if you don't ID you're going to jail.
Is that state even a stop and ID state and if so surely you still need to have some suspicion of committing a crime as otherwise he can just scoop up anyone he hiles whenever he likes.

I have been to military bases like that and taken pictures and never had a problem. I just don't understand why cops try to make an issue out of taking pictures like this. Obviously all this stuff is open for anybody to see that is driving by and most of it you can even see from Google Maps, as I go after these videos sometimes and see for myself... right there on the world wide web. Know what I saw yesterday on google maps? This:It just seems stupid to have cops pulling people for taking photo's of public buildings.
Do they think everyone is a terrorist?
Surely a terrorist would be slightly more covert than standing on the street for hours where he himself can be photo'd?

What are those things sitting right there in Honolulu?
"This day and age"In the UK we have people who spend all day taking photo's outside military bases to take photo's of the aircraft comming and going and then putting it online.
You can do this outside US bases even when the newest stealth aircraft visits.
There's also about a million video's online taken on the Mach Loop military training area of all sorts of aircraft from all over the world as it's one of the few ultra low level test areas.
If I can freely take a picture of a billion dollar stealth aircraft why is it a national security issue if I take a picture of a random fire station?

That line kinda bugs me... some wackos targeted cops for a few years but cops say that line as if we are in a new era of police assassinations and they are fortressed inside these bunker police stations just waiting to be attacked... buy a guy taking some pictures, as if all the coming and going can't be surveilled in some less conspicuous and more effective manner."This day and age"
No I am not condoning what the cops did, but cops are still being targeted as we speak.That line kinda bugs me... some wackos targeted cops for a few years but cops say that line as if we are in a new era of police assassinations and they are fortressed inside these bunker police stations just waiting to be attacked...

They should be! Besides, in today's age where teachers are constantly questioned about what and how they are teaching, and have zero appreciation shown to them, why would anyone want to go into that profession?1 in 10 teachers have been attacked... I bet that is a higher proportion than cops.
1 in 10 teachers say they’ve been attacked by students
Student attacks on teachers are on the rise, and experts say that the challenge for policymakers and administrators is to find a way to protect teachers without jeopardizing students’ right to due process.www.britannica.com
Teachers are not claiming that 'in this day and age' and attacking kids with the justification that the teacher was fearful.

Because of covid.
I just find it interesting that the same people flying the "thin blue line" flags are the ones most likely to have not given a shit about spreading covid everywhere and killing all those cops.
Is there any polls or stats or studies to back up that claim?I just find it interesting that the same people flying the "thin blue line" flags are the ones most likely to have not given a shit about spreading covid everywhere and killing all those cops.
Isn't it just common sense? Conservatives back cops almost without fault. Conservatives are the majority of those refusing vaccinations.Is there any polls or stats or studies to back up that claim?
In a debate, we have to back up our claims with facts. If we don't, claims are nothing more than conjecture.Isn't it just common sense? Conservatives back cops almost without fault. Conservatives are the majority of those refusing vaccinations.
