The ACLU and Joseph Gordon Levitt Bring It School House Rock Style

These days, everyone is a photo journalist, and a lot of cops have been caught on tape breaking the rules.  Not surprisingly, nobody likes being caught, and it seems that a few of the boys in blue have been confiscating cameras and telling people they aren’t allowed film.

Fortunately we have the ACLU on our side, and they’ve teamed up with Joseph Gordon-Levitt and The Gregory Brothers to tell you about your rights to film and photograph public events, particularly the right to film cops.  I don’t know if this will ever reach the hit status of Conjunction Junction, or A Noun is a Person, Place or Thing, but you should give it a listen anyway.  You never know when you’re going to have the opportunity to film a tasering.
