Kameran - ett dödligt vapen i varje polisstat

Kameran - ett dödligt vapen

i varje polisstat

2012-08-15.
Allt fler som fotograferar myndighetsövergrepp hotas, arresteras och misshandlas av polisen. Detta gäller både journalister och vanliga människor som dokumenterar en händelse med mobilen.

När sanningen avslöjas på bild är det naturligtvis inte bra för trovärdigheten hos en korrupt stat eller hos kriminella medarbetare inom poliskåren...

I länder som Syrien, Saudiarabien etc, riskerar människor ofta livet för att få ut bilder på regimernas- eller varför inte NATO:s & USA:s blodiga övergrepp på civilbefolkningen.

I USA har "war against terror" gått såpass långt att landet idag tveklöst kan definieras som en polisstat. Sverige är på väg dit med ungefär 2 års fördröjning.

På UnderMattan-bloggen finns ett antal händelser i  serien SVENSKA POLISENS DÅLIGA DAGAR där poliser allvarligt misshandlar och hotar vanliga människor som försöker dokumentera statliga övergrepp från poliser med kameran.


(ETT EXEMPEL HÄR)

Undertill, en artikel från Business Insider som belyser ämnet och utvecklingen i USA.

Lawyer Details How 9/11 Led To:

- A War On Taking Pictures In Public

Business Insider 2012-08-14On Aug. 4 Robert Stolarik, a freelance photographer for The New York Times, was arrested and charged with obstructing government administration and with resisting arrest while photographing the arrest of a teenage girl. 

Journalists experienced similar treatment during the NYPD’s early morning raid of Zuccotti Park, at the NATO summit in Chicago in May and at Occupy protests across the country.

Mickey H. Osterreicher, a former press photographer and the lawyer for the National Press Photographers Association, spoke with Times writer James Estrin Tuesday about the criminalization of photography.

Osterreicher, who has also been a reserve deputy in Erie county sheriff’s department since 1976, said that since 9/11 there has been a sharp increase in photographers being hassled or arrested for simply recording video or taking pictures in public.

He says that "every citizen should be concerned."

Osterreicher explained that the reason one can take pictures in public is the same reason why security cameras are allowed to photograph citizens – because "when we’re out in public we have no reasonable expectation of privacy."

He advises photojournalists to stay calm, be reasonable and "as cooperative as you can," but to remember that:

- You don't have to show police your pictures and you can ask to speak with a supervisor.

As for ordinary citizens, Osterreicher says to "just be aware that this may happen to you" and if hassled to assert the right to take pictures in public.

Osterreicher told The New York Times:

We look at the images that come out of Syria and Libya where people risk their lives in order to get images out. Most of those images that we’ve seen are coming from citizens with their cellphones. They risk their lives, and we consider those efforts heroic. And yet in this country, somebody doing the very same thing is considered suspect. I have a real problem with that.

Fotografer räknas som

möjliga terrorister i USA 2012

RT 2012-09-12
Be careful next time you are out taking photos in public. It turns out that photographers can be detained as potential terrorists for just doing their job.

The Los Angeles Police Department’s counter terror guidelines are coming under new scrutiny as they attack a lot of activities supposed to be protected by the First Amendment, including photography.

Photographer Carlos Miller was reporting on Occupy Miami when he was arrested by half a dozen police officers dressed in riot gear. Miller was on a public street and believes he was targeted for videotaping police officers.

“They’re recording us, they don’t want us recording them,” said Miller. “They really want to put a scare factor into us,” he added.

Miller has been arrested three times for exercising his First Amendment right of freedom of speech and expression.

According to many police departments across the country, including the LAPD, Miller’s actions fall into the realm of potential terrorism. [...]
