I’m somewhat familiar with this movement. It’s widespread, with practitioners in many states. They call themselves ‘First Amendment Auditors’. Search for that phrase on YouTube, and you’ll see hundreds of their videos.

Their goal is to exercise their First Amendment rights. They film whatever they can see while on public property. In theory, that’s a very good thing. It’s a free country.

But instead of politely explaining what they are doing, they are usually rude. As in:

Guard: What are you doing with that camera?
Guy: I’m doing whatever I want. Get away from me.

Having said that, the guard in this particular instance was 100% wrong, and should go to jail for it. You don’t shoot someone just for filming a building - any building - from a public place.

Well, nobody has covered themnselves in glory with this one.

Given what happened in Pittsburgh and the fact this is a Jewish School the YouTube “Personality” should have been clearer in explaining what they were doing and their legal right to do so.

The security guard was clearly overzealous in shooting first and asking questions later.

He is going to get fired and prosecuted, It is having to deal with a bullet hole in it’s body...
