Many states in the US have laws that you cannot get that close to police without being arrested yourself. Louisiana's passed just last week. Arizona tried to ban filming them a year or two ago. Just thought the dude with the US flag jacket should know!

The law in Louisiana was not about getting this close. That law was about getting close enough for your camera to work.

Clarifying: the Louisiana law is literally you must stay 25 feet away when told and says nothing about recording. The (old) Supreme Court told Arizona that it's against the Constitution to have laws against filming.

The wink wink of it is likely so people can't easily film, but it isn't what the law says
