I think human errors and series of failures are often brought about by situations exactly like rushing to complete a deadline?

That's when people stop following the checklist/procedure or are overtired and not paying enough attention after a long shift or the third week of overtime.

I'm not referencing this particular situation per se or the blame part, but that's what came to mind when I read your comment.

Interesting.

So the blame is not really BP rush to get the system and running as media reported but more of a series of failures and some human errors.

I can't defend aggressive police that should know the laws clearly so they can uphold them properly. It's hard to picture having that level of surefire arrogance with such a sorry lack of knowledge about basic rights.

But that doesn't mean that returning the harassment, which we do regularly see in videos on here, is a good way to address the underlying issue and effect change. It's hard to have any effective teachable moment in an exchange like this and I'd say impossible to touch on the actual endemic issue behind it.
I would never claim to know how where to start with such a large scale problem, but I would hazard that it would be possible to expend the same energy in ways that might contribute.

Why does it matter if he's specifically doing it to bait them? It doesn't change what they should know and how they should behave, there is a clear example with the sergeant, it's night and day.

I feel like I've seen videos on here of this same guy before, or someone incredibly similar who goes around filming buildings of police type organizations.

He's always well within his rights and well versed in them, but I do feel he's doing it specifically to cause trouble and film it. I applaud his interest in civil liberties, but I'm not sure doing this advances the overall cause or awareness much.
