While a majority of states protect an individual's right to film public officials in public and the remaining states have court rulings in support of the practice, this patchwork quilt of laws should be supported clearly as a constitutional amendment.
There are many examples of laws not being followed on the part of Law Enforcement where cameras were ordered "turned off" or confiscated and the individual detained, arrested, or charged with ambiguous crimes such as misconduct. Video evidence was then deleted (successfully and not successfully). Photography is not a crime and should be protected.
