Grabbing someone else's camera and destroying it is likely to constitute both assault and theft (possibly aggravated assault due to two crimes being combined) and you would run a strong risk of going to jail irrespective of your own opinion as to the justification.

If you do that another country as non-citizen you might face deportation after such a conviction.

I keep seeing advertising on this thread for anti-virus software, self-defense products, and a report on heart attack symptoms. Surely, this can't be a coincidence?

I'll have to take your word for it. I don't see any adverts because - zing! - I use New and Improved AdBlock Plus. For all your ad-blocking needs.

Firefox (and Google) are your friends.

Ray and JAJ,

The point being - I will do everythign in my *power* to protect
my children. May be grabing the camera is unlikely.....I am just
making the point that I will definitely not sit just because he
has a legal right to do a certain thing....

30 Min video for me is scary...that's all..

In fact, only the courts can make such a determination. All law enforcement can do is assess whether it is likely that such a breach has occurred and the extent of any supporting evidence.

I wonder a couple things... does taking video have the same rights as photos?

And unrelated... do people that rent a property have the same rights to forbid photography as property owners?
As a general rule, yes in both instances.

Bear in mind that a property owner's rights concerning unauthorised photography are usually limited to insisting that the offending photographer leave the premises. It is still not permissible to forcibly take a camera or its contents.

Nor can you prevent photos of private property being taken from a public area, although there can be specific prohibitions on:

- taking photos of people inside a building (where they have a reasonable expectation of privacy);
- taking photos in a way that constitutes loitering and/or harassment.

I think everyone is getting too involved in what is legal or not.

Taking 30 min video of a 7 year old surely is unacceptable and
should not be tolerated....especially as one has no way of finding
out what can be done with this video....

F that...
