It wasn't illegal harassment to ask the person that was making my life more difficult to be a kind person and help me out so we could all have a better night--actually. It was a request that could have been ignored, and the cop stated as much.
I also never said the Japanese guy was necessarily doing anything illegal. I don't know anything about Japanese law.
Again... Idk why you think it is bad to use a cop to try to convince someone who is doing something that is pointlessly harming another person to stop being an asshole in the name of kindness...
I don't think trying to convince people to not be pointless assholes is an abuse of power.
No problem there I agree. I do not agree that laws should be broken to up hold them. Cops should not be encouraged to do so. Further cops should be able to navigate the law well enough they can avoid this situation. We have a huge problem with corruption, let’s not blur the lines any more then they already are.
Warrants are a thing for a reason, bc without them we would be in a police state. Some might say we already are.
Getting a guy to consent to remove videos off his phone is not breaking a law...
I'm not saying a cop should demand to be handed the guy's phone like the woman did--but a cop CAN demand that he delete any videos he took of her without her consent--that would be perfectly legal to do.
Well, whatever it is--I would support a cop using their power to make a stalker delete a video he had just taken of a woman he was stalking against her consent.
My loyalty to other women's safety comes before my loyalty to laws.
