I find this all very disturbing. One of the principles of democracy is transparency and government accountability. Clearly at this time the citizens of Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland and wherever else this happens deserve the government they make for themselves. I would like to see a broad ranging Supreme Court ruling allowing everyone the right to film in public. If not by the court, then some action by Congress.

It would not surprise me if the states with these surveillance laws equip their police cars with on board cameras that record traffic stops and other incidents. Can we order them turned off too?
