Texas Bill Limiting the Photography of Cops Dropped After ‘Loud’ Public Outcry

It was a month ago that a Texas lawmaker sparked a hoopla by proposing a bill that would limit the photography and filming of officers. If passed, anyone caught pointing a camera at an officer from within 25 feet could be charged with breaking the law.

Public outcry was swift and loud, and people even began sending death threats to the representative's office. Good news today: the bill is now dead.
