3. yes, we had a 'concealed camera' day at the Capitol yesterday.
No camera's are allowed in the galley as we watch the Legislative proceeding but as of Nov 1, we can pack a gun in the galley.

The person arrested along with 18 others was Matthew Rothchild, he editor of our famous Progressive Magazine in Madison, WI.

5. If so it's the same reason for the 70% increase in police agencies asking Google
to take down from youtube videos of police brutality. They don't want anyone interfering in their little game.

9. The bastards who planned their little coup...
...decades ago, didn't anticipate the internet or cell-phone cameras.

Short sighted neocon scumbags.

10. I see a market for camera guns. As long as it's a gun, you're safe from arrest. nt

13. How do we know you won't take it out and shoot somebody?
As I recall, in the old Soviet Union, the government strictly regulated and monitored photocopiers. Unauthorized copies could put you in a whole heap of trouble.

15. Yes, it is concealed camera day. It is a take on the conceal carry law that lets you carry a gun
into the capital building but you can't take a camera in.
