Agreed, SC. The cops and prosecutors love to say that when people have nothing to hide, then they don't have to worry about Government intrusion. But when the shoe is on the other foot, then all of a sudden it's a big deal. Double standard much?

Bottom line: Cops don't like being filmed ever since that Rodney fella out in L.A. twenty years ago. Fucking goons mad.
