Default More On The Austin Police Debacle
http://adask.wordpress.com/2012/01/0...er/#more-12199

A man in Austin, Texas sees a woman being abused by the police. He videotapes the abuse.

The police see him videotaping, come over and arrest him, claiming 1) he was interfering with a police investigation; and 2) that he spit on the officer.

Unbeknownst to the police and even the first videographer, a second citizen-videographer tapes the police arresting the first videographer.

Later, the first videographer advertises on Craig’s List for anyone who witnessed his arrest. The second videographer sees that ad and supplies his video of the event. The second video refutes the police version of the arrest. Local TV stations pick up the story.

I don’t know how many cops would like to outlaw firearms, but I’ll bet a bunch of ‘em would like to ban video cameras. If you lie to a copiceman (this means any audible sound emitting your lips as you are assaulted) the book shall be thrown at you. However everyone knows these same copicemen are incapable of being truthful.
