Because there have been several instances of police officers getting in trouble when their police brutality videos makes their way onto YouTube, several states are working on laws that would make it illegal to video tape officers on duty. The legal justification falls under the wire tapping law… I smell bullshit.
I just want to have in depth discussions of politics, religion, and sex--you know, all those things "they" say you shouldn't talk about in "polite" society. I'll be expressing opinions here. If you have a problem with that, feel free to move on. If I claim something, I try to back it up with facts. If you want to contest those facts, feel free.
If you have any comments, questions, or suggestion please feel free to drop me a message.
If you want to join in the discussion leave a comment, start a blog, or you can can follow me on Facebook, Twitter, Google Reader, Buzz, YouTube, or Flickr.
