Five:

Liajohnston:

how?

Five:

Liajohnston:

I need help on it ,

Five:

so ask the question in a different way what part do you need help wit

Liajohnston:

basically I need help with writing paragraphs for it

Five:

ok start wit paragraph 1 what are your thoughts on the instructions for that

Liajohnston:

my thoughts are I am having a hard time writing

Five:

man what lmao

Liajohnston:

please someone help!

Satellite74:

Do you understand the topic that this paper is based on, first off? Have you studied and researched articles that could help you cite the sources you’ll find?

Satellite74:

Scratch that, I see now this assignment is based off one source. All you’d have to do is quote from that page alone.

Liajohnston:

YES, I read the article but I just can't write

Satellite74:

In that case, the introductory paragraph is basically going to be you introducing your thoughts on the source. Start off with the author of the article, the primary point (what to say when the police you to stop recording them), and some introductory quotes from the article.

Satellite74:

At last, it went through. Send your essay draft through here so we can all read, Lia.

Satellite74:

It’s written great so far, I say you nailed the first three criteria of the first paragraphs. It isn’t using too many quotes, just summarizing what it says and agreeing to it. By my view, you only need help finishing paragraph 4, then 5, and conclusion, correct?

Liajohnston:

yes

Liajohnston:

for fourth paragraph Have you encountered hostility or disapproval of others when photographing? if not Provide a real-life example of someone encountering hostility when photographing (this can be related to journalism).

Liajohnston:

can someone help me with the real-life example of someone encountering hostility when photographing

Satellite74:

So let’s see what we can add to paragraph 4 to finish off it asking you if you had encountered this kind of hostility before. You said no, but you’d keep your eye out. Great. What other advice can you take from the article, maybe even an example, that would help you in case you encountered this situation in the future?

Satellite74:

Yes. I believe the author is giving you a real life example in the article itself, and what officers can say when this sort of situation pops up. What will you do if an officer tells you to stop recording something?

Satellite74:

Since this question is a personal one, it basically asks what you’d do if this happened to you, using what you’ve learned from this article.

Liajohnston:

since I don't have anything personal to say , I need an example of of someone encountering hostility when photographing

Satellite74:

That paragraph sounds great. And all right, I’m that case, we’d do a little “What should I do if an officer tells me to stop recording” research on the internet, find some other article of an example, and summarize it.

Liajohnston:

but it doesn't have to be about an officer, its in general

Cyber:

Just Don't Film The Cops. Simple

Liajohnston:

that's not the point

Cyber:

And what grade is this?

Liajohnston:

11th grade

Satellite74:

Eventually, you’ll stumble upon an example of someone going through hostility while recording the police. But what you have so far is great, coupled with the example from the article you are provided.

Cyber:

You can probably find an example on Youtube or Microsoft Video.

Satellite74:

Once you find the example, watch and summarize into your paragraph. And then that part should be complete!

Satellite74:

As for the fifth paragraph, again, this is more personal, you can answer this yourself. I don’t believe you’d need an example from real life to elaborate on that one.

Liajohnston:

I barely have a page done

Liajohnston:

so I don't even know where to continue writing

Satellite74:

Did you not show me your essay thus far?

“What to Say When the Police Tell You to Stop Filming Them" In Meyer, Robinson’s article “What to Say When the Police Tell You to Stop Filming Them”, The ACLU's "Know Your Rights" guide lays out in plain language the legal protections that are assured people filming in public. Photographers can take pictures of anything in plain view from public spaces, including public officials. Cops can't "confiscate or demand to view" audio or video without a warrant, and they can't ever delete images. The guide does caution that officers may legitimately order citizens to cease activities that are truly interfering with legitimate law enforcement operations. Copwatch is a program that films police at work in low-income neighborhoods. In today's critical response paper, I will be talking about a few things I completely agree with the article and what I've read. I agree with these points from the article “What you don’t have a right to do is interfere,” he says. “Record from a distance, stay out of the scene, and the officer doesn’t have the right to come over and take your camera, confiscate it.” Officers do have a right to tell you to stop interfering with their work, Burton told me, but they still aren’t allowed to destroy film. I also believe that photographers have every right to record in public locations; however, if photographers find themselves in a private, forbidden area, they should leave immediately and have no right to record any material. The law enforcement aren't allowed to tell you that you can't record what they’re doing because you have that right but you can't not interfere with their investigation or scene, they cannot take your camera, smash it or delete anything from it, some police officers do and that's wrong of them, also without a warrant a police officer cannot search your things, go through your phone or camera or any other devices you may have, with that warrant they can and you can't tell them no. Private landowners may have regulations against photographing on their property. As a result, you'll have to ask them whether you can or not. So, the first amendment protects a photographer's rights, there are certain rights about organizing a protest, attending a protest, taking pictures, or shooting video(s) at a protest. I haven't encountered any, but, when I do film or use the camera, when necessary, I keep an eye out on any disapproval or looks people may give me.

dontsaymyname:

Send the research paper now with all the edits and paragraphs done, so we can see where you need to elaborate

Satellite74:

The thing is, she is currently in the middle of writing it. She informed me that she needed assistance with the fourth, fifth, and conclusion paragraphs of the assignment. Once that’s done, we can probably help elaborate and correct.

dontsaymyname:

Appreciate it, but if she shows us the final paragraphs, we can have a better understanding of where she is at

Satellite74:

I think with the completion of the fourth paragraph, coupled with your personal 5th and the conclusion, should get you to two, Lia.

She hasn’t written the final paragraphs, this is what we’re working on.

Satellite74:

It seems now we also must expand it into two pages.

Liajohnston:

ok

dontsaymyname:

She sent what I needed to see, thank you

Satellite74:

Lia, focus on the fourth paragraph with the experience. Blend information out of it as much as possible, and summarize it along with your own thoughts. Say what you would do if you encountered this situation in your own life.

dontsaymyname:

Is there perhaps someone you know who has encountered hostility when taking photographs or recording?

Liajohnston:

no I want to provide an example

Satellite74:

Lia, the YouTube video’s example should be fine.

dontsaymyname:

Well Q #4 asks a personal question, not necessarily seeking for an example

Satellite74:

This is what I mentioned, but she replied with

@liajohnston wrote:

Satellite74:

I’d say “someone” counts as anyone that research could find that encountered hostility.

dontsaymyname:

Is that what the teacher suggested? Bcuz in the past, I've gotten points taken off for being off-topic

Liajohnston:

yeah it is

Satellite74:

Have you watched the video and gathered your thoughts on it? All you’d need to do is use the example and place it into your fourth paragraph. Of course, you would cite your sources.

Satellite74:

Then proceed with some of your own personal thoughts on that situation, and the next paragraph should follow.

Liajohnston:

Actually I don't want to use that video

Liajohnston:

Provide a real-life example of someone encountering hostility when photographing (this can be related to journalism).

Satellite74:

In that case, I’d continue to researh, unless, as @dontsaymyname suggested, you have someone you know that experienced this.

Satellite74:

Research*

Liajohnston:

thanks, I don't have any personal or related experiences

dontsaymyname:

Does a friend or family member ?

Liajohnston:

nope

Satellite74:

Now, it says it can be related to journalism. I don’t see any “police” specification. Maybe look up “journalism hostility examples” and see what pops up.

Satellite74:

That’s factual. What will you add to that paragraph?

dontsaymyname:

Perhaps you can say something along the lines as, I personally have not encountered hostility or disapproval of others when photographing, and then the paragraph you mentioned above, and then possibly state, however, many individuals express disapproval and/or hostility towards those who are only expressing their right outlined in the First Amendment

dontsaymyname:

Which ties in paragraph 3 as well

I like that

dontsaymyname:

Thank you, and you can change it up to your own writing style 💙

Liajohnston:

yes

Liajohnston:

I personally have not encountered hostility or disapproval of others when photographing, Generally speaking, though, when you are in public, it is legal to record someone, video record or audio record, as long as they don't have what is called, “an expectation of privacy,” or rather a reasonable expectation of privacy.

Satellite74:

I will say for encouragement that after this paragraph, it should get easier. The fifth question is definitely more personal, not needing to take any other person’s example. And the conclusion is simply summarizing the main point in every paragraph you’ve wrote until that point. My final advice for the night is to re-read it once it’s at last complete, I believe with what you’ve got so far, you’ll be able to brainstorm the rest once enough effort is put. I’ll leave this to you, @dontsaymyname . Good luck, Lia. 👍🏻

dontsaymyname:

And I was thinking for Paragraph 5, you can build off of paragraph 4, which teachers lovee, organization and chronically, anywayz so like you can mention your personal thought on the question, maybe like, I do not feel the need to be self-concious while tsking photographs, as previous mentioned, my rights have already been protected by the first amendment, on the ither hand, that would not mean I would not be self-aware of my surroundings and the individuals I am photgraphing, and maybe mention some precautions you would perhaps take, just a thought

Liajohnston:

alright

dontsaymyname:

Lml if you need anymore help

Liajohnston:

thanks, will do

dontsaymyname:

Okie 💙

Cyber:

If you are done could you please close the post.

Liajohnston:

close it

Cyber:

ok
