Say, I would like to speak to an attorney.
I will not speak to you without an attorney.
You know, all of that.
And then, of course, you know, as you were saying, you have the right to film law enforcement.
In public, you know, they can't actually you can't obstruct.
So, yes, there is this this thing that people think, oh, well, am I obstructing?
No, if you're standing a few feet away and you are filming, even if they don't like it, you are not obstructing.
So you can always film.
That is your First Amendment right.
This is something that everybody should know.
Everyone should share with their friends and family members because this is how we fight back.
Knowing your rights makes you more calm in these situations and it also makes you harder to abuse.
I mean, listen, the law is that the limitation is you can't obstruct or interfere with agents performing their lawful duties, which means keeping a reasonable distance and not stepping into their physical space.
So, you know, I mean...
I think if they start stepping into your space, obviously they're the ones doing it.
You're not the one who's obstructing, but you should still probably step back just because we've now seen that they are executing people for that.
So like the risks are obviously are very high here because we've seen how trigger happy they are.
So like I would say.
You know, it is your First Amendment right to film.
