can you apply that law to what happened there? Tell you what, lets not kick each other in the nuts for 20 odd posts. I get what your saying. I think we both could make sensible arguments for while.

Had this involved the government in anyway I'd be screaming and shouting to no end. But these were private people.

here is an interesting question. If its o.k. for the press to invade peoples privacy... whats wrong with the gov. doing it?

duals rule

guy?? are u even reading what I wrote.. I said in the article it never stated the reporters were sticking their mics in peoples faces or invading their privacy. And I'm talking in the context of the article. You post an article about reports harassing people and we will debate that. They were on PUBLIC PROPERTY or were giving permission to be where they were and they were being harrassed.. maybe not by members of the FEDERAL governemnt.. but the article did say that the reporters were being threatened by State as well as Local Law Enforcement.. which is part of State and Local government. Which as u might not know also has to follow the US Constitution. You need to stick to the arguement at hand and STOP trying to make the issue about something else. I don't deny that the "press" doesn't invade peoples privacy.. they sure do.. but I don't think abusing laws is the way to "fix" the bad things they do. If your in a position of Government you should follow the laws to get things changed, not take it upon yourself to break laws and deny freedoms to people. Cause yes even reporters are US citizins.
