S.Ct. won't revive Chicago's Recording of Police ban
The Supreme Court let the Court of Appeals decision invalidating the law stand. The Court refused to hear Chicago's apeal. This law wasn't even close to being constitutional. Just a hint at what it might be like to live in a police state.
Because police serve the public, they should always be mindful of their role as sworn peace officers whenever in uniform and/or acting behind the badge. As long as reasonable tactics are employed when doing their job, there's really nothing to worry about. Film away! SCOTUS made a good call here. Sort of a rarity these days.
