However, don't take that same "rifle stock" mounted camera into some urban environments where an encounter with law enforcement officers with tunnel vision who don't seem to be capable of differentiating between a cell phone, or candy bar and a firearm. That is stupidly dangerous, and could be detrimental to your health. And it's rather sad that our society had degenerated to the point where that is the case.
