If someone shows me the video with no sound, and no context, I know what country this is. The UK is the country of the heckler's veto. Don't like what someone's saying? Threaten to raise hell, and they'll put the speaker in jail.
🚨UK Police Threaten Arrest for “Future Crime” – Minority Report Comes to Britain
UK police officer threatens to arrest a man for peacefully filming in public, because his presence “might” wind people up and cause someone else to lose their temper.
This is straight-up Minority Report policing.
They’re not arresting him for any actual crime. They’re not even claiming he’s breaking the law. They’re saying: “We can arrest you to prevent a breach of the peace” meaning, we’re going to punish you in case some random person gets angry at your legal activity.
Think about that. If someone gets so wound up by a camera that they want to attack the person holding it, the rational response is to arrest the aggressor, not the person exercising their right to film in a public space.
How on earth can you justify detaining someone for something that hasn’t happened and might never happen? It flips justice on its head: the person minding their own business (and their rights) becomes the problem, while potential troublemakers get their feelings protected by the state.
Officers should be de-escalating and protecting lawful behaviour, not threatening people with arrest for hypothetical future crimes by others.
Absolutely disgraceful.
Once again, these incidents will only end when any active shooter can expect to be met with immediate gunfire from lawful citizens. There weren't too many guns in that mall. There were too few.

WE DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THIS!!!!!
The signers of the Declaration of Independence stood in the face of tyranny and rejected it, seceding from the most powerful country in the world at the time.
They were laughed at, ridiculed, and branded traitors. But they also changed the world.
Socialist or communist urbanites, and radical islamic immigrants vs. the rural normals. Although, if the left wins, it'll be fun watching the communists learn the new Islamic theocracy wants to kill them.
The rule: "Always believe all women. If a man beats a woman, he's worthy of death. We pick the bear."
The exception: "Unless the biological woman-beating man is trans, and then you just need to STFU and take your beating like a big girl."
Because compassion and love, ya know.
It's the 20th Anniversary of Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth."
NONE of his scary predictions have come true.
Mt. Kilimanjaro still has snow and Glacier National Park still has glaciers.
Here's why we are not doomed:
@ofcrdeonjoseph@Craftmastah Yep. Nothing but a man for sale. He’ll gladly go right back to the white elites’ plantation and pick cotton…you know, as long as the money’s really, REALLY good this time around.
Kamala Harris: "Donald Trump is the first president of the United States, of either party, Republican or Democrat, since World War II who has thumbed his nose at the importance of America's relationships with our allies."
