So honest question:

 

SCOTUS has ruled repeatedly that it is lawful to video LEOs performing their duties. How then is it illegal to tell other people when you see LEO (nee ICE)?

 

I find the narrative surrounding the app troubling. I understand that by advertising where ICE is working you increase the danger to the agents. I also understand that it is our role as citizens to monitor the activity of those to whom we give authority to ensure they do not misuse that authority. I don't want to get in to the hyperbolic arguments re: secret police so I will just point out that most began with claims of safety. I tend to think that most LEO are honest people doing a hard thankless job. I do have a problem with the way they tend to close ranks around one of their own until the malfeasance becomes undeniable. I have a problem with it but I also understand it.

 

Seems to me that the solution is not to go after the makers of the app, who probably have a first amendment right to make it, but those who then misuse the app, though that is much harder.

 

While I support deportations I do not support using them as an excuse to give more power to the government. Even if the current administration does not abuse the power a future one will ( that is not if but when).
