3) Should citizens be able to take photos and videos of the police? Why or why not?
Answer: I think they should i mean like why wouldn't they be able to if the police didn't do anything bad then they don't have nothing to fear.
4) Is there anything a citizen should not be allowed to take a photo or video of (for example, inside the subway, couples making out, outside the White House)?
Answer: I agree that citizens shouldn't take pictures of like the white house because they can somehow endanger someones life like for example the president and/or his family.
