I'm in the uncomfortable position of defending an action that I don't
fully support.  That said, I don't think the statute said that you
can't tape the arrest ... they said that you can't "take the tape
public", providing that you knew "it was intentionally recorded".
Whatever that means -- I think we'd need to read the actual statute
to decipher that last bit.
