I was scanning the daily news and came across this seemingly mundane
article about a NS Minister [Fage] leaving the scene of an accident. Minister
Fage apparently stuck Mr. Gamble's car.

Nothing really appeared interesting about the article until about half way
down and I read this:
>
Gamble, who shot video of Fage after the accident, said he was satisfied
with the conviction but thought the fine should have been stiffer.
He said he believes the video he shot of Fage was key in getting the case
to court.
<
I thought, well, cell phone videos now heighten the bar on personal accountability
and legalities. Good on Gamble. However, if Minister Fage took out his camera
at the same time and video'ed Gamble, what implications to the court case?
What if Gamble was wearing a clown suit at the time? Did Gamble ask if
he could take the video and Fage agreed?
I thought cell phone videos were a feature but it struck me now its alot more than
that.
How do you feel about the person behind you flipping out a cell phone and
videoing you? I'm not reading anything more about Nova Scotia politics.
