What is even the rationale behind that law? Recording cops doesn’t harm them in any way until they start senselessly killing people

It doesn't prevent recording cops. Here's the rationale stated by a sponsor.

"I agreed to run this bill because there are groups hostile to the police that follow them around to videotape police incidents, and they get dangerously close to potentially violent encounters," Kavanagh wrote, also adding that today's cell phone cameras would still pick up details from eight feet away.

It's not the recording, it's the proximity, that's being addressed.

Apparently there's some vagueness in how some of the wording could be interpreted and that should be looked at which it would seem is at the heart of ACLU/news filings.

It makes a constitutionally protected activity a crime.
Time place and manner in turner v driver was never narrowly defined. This could be interesting.

Maryland Police Officer Sued for Threatening a 5-Year-Old Boy, County Settles

The fact that the cops were sued over this is ridiculous, and even more ridiculous that there was a settlement. A kid walked out of school, they eventually found him and made the experience unpleasant by yelling at him. They did the right thing, and I doubt he will attempt something like this again. Society has gone too soft and become too lawsuit-happy.

Not a police issue, but seems pretty dumb for taxpayers to pay for both parties of this appeal and pay for the guy’s stay (and at least 3 others, I’m told), when the legislature repealed the statute he was convicted under.

So in Tennessee, by law, if you get commit a crime and the legislature reduces the sentence for that crime before you are sentenced then you get the lesser sentence, but if they make it not a crime at all you get the full sentence.

This isn't a race or gender issue. It is a cop issue. These cops feel empowered to do these things because they know that system will protect them.

I hate this video. This woman is obviously mentally ill/drugged and the cops keep trying to reason with her like she's a rational human being. We have got to do something different to deal with the mentally ill and drug addicts other than put them back on the streets.

Just curious, what was she being charged with? Was she a killer or rapist or something?

A N T I S T A T E on Instagram: "[08DEC2017] Cop Found Not Guilty for Murdering Daniel Shaver as Innocent Unarmed Dad Begs for His Life Phoenix, AZ -- In March of 2016, Mesa Police Officer Philip Brailsford was charged with second-degree murder for gunning down Daniel Shaver, an innocent husband, and father of two. The shooting was captured on body cam footage, part of which was released the following May. On Thursday, a jury, apparently blinded by the badge delivered a verdict of not guilty and the rest of the body camera footage was released—showing a cold-blooded murder. In October, Brailsford's defense claimed that the prosecution showing the jury the body cam during opening statements would be unfair to the killer cop. Apparently, this strategy worked. Jurors deliberated less than six hours and despite the horrifying body camera showing Brailsford execute Shaver, they somehow returned a not guilty verdict. This is a travesty of justice and a testament to the system that protects killers who wear badges. Last year, an Arizona judge announced that they would be releasing the body camera footage showing Brailsford murder Shaver. When they did release it, however, the city released two videos, both of which were clearly edited and portions redacted. [Continued - pinned comment] #ANTISTATE"

Wait till Chicago gets Illinois’ new soft on crime law in affect. No arrests for any misdemeanors and 99% of felonies or bonded holds allowed for anything other than first degree murder, hate crime, and terrorism.

Hate crimes aren't terrorism yet?
