That is police harassment? You must of been living a very protected life. ROTFL. Go to any city anywhere in the world, find a "down and out" neigbourhood and start filming the police and see what happens -lol- Now, what do want me to show in return. Rodney King being arrested perhaps? His arrest video is on utube if you care to look. You have to sign up to being over 18 to witness the violence. The only place in the world where you will find a milder police force then the UK is somewhere like Hong Kong. It certainly isn't France. I don't know why you keep me showing that link of Anita Dunn. By way of an example, the USMC tell RAW recruits that Lee Harvey Oswald was a marine. It does not mean they expect marines to go shoot the president, become communists, or be supporters of Castro in Cuba. There is a tape of LHO here. spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk No, the USMC tells raw recruits that Lee Harvey Oswald was a marine only because he was a good shot. They take pride in that type of fact. LIKEWISE Anita Dunn was quoting Mao Tse-Tung because he beat the odds and won, not she wants everyone to become communists. You have to wonder why the opposition was so screwed up for him to win, they had everything and he seemingly had nothing. Strange eh? But to follow that line of thought you need an operating brain. Who is that idiot in the suit anyway?

If it's like New Zealand, the police are quite entitled to require the name and address of people. Recording people isn't normally illegal in a public place. I suppose there are some circumstances in which it is. Such as disclosing Official Secrets Act people or something like that. Or if it's done with malign intentions but then it would evidence of malign intentions rather than illegal in itself. It's not surprising that people are so defensive given the trends of policing. The days of the friendly bobby have long gone though they still exist. It was silly of the police to go after the guy videoing them. Mqurice
