Cooley v. Foreman AKA Afroman | American Civil Liberties Union

After a musician used footage of officers searching his home in music videos criticizing that search and the officers more broadly, they sued him for damages and asked the court to order him to stop speaking about them. The ACLU of Ohio and the ACLU filed an amicus brief in support of the musician’s motion to dismiss the suit, arguing that the lawsuit sought to silence criticism in violation of the First Amendment.

"Seven law enforcement officers claimed they suffered humiliation, ridicule, mental distress, and loss of reputation after seeing themselves in the videos."

Yes, absolutely: “if you suffer "humiliation, ridicule, mental distress and loss of reputation" for a video that shows you doing your job, either you SUCK at your job, or your job is not something any decent person would be doing”. 😐
What were they thinking of? Drawing attention to themselves, & their extremely poor behaviour, so unprofessional - for goodness sake: at least one of them - caught on camera - was a thief! Try to wrap your head around that!! A law enforcement officer stole money from the man! On camera!! 🤬😤😐
