> actuallly chase police officers, annoyingly record their action and make sure to insult them

As for the insulting part - sure, that's always a shame.

But what's wrong with following bearers of state power and recording their actions? That's precisely in the spirit of the first amendment.

Insulting is likewise precisely in the spirit of the first amendment.

Well, it terms of defending-what-you-say, I won't. In terms of defending-your-right-to-say-it, I will.

However, for the recording thing:

In terms of defending-your-right-to-do-it, I will. However, in this case, defending-what-you-do, I'll do that too.

So it's a little different. Although I acknowledge someone's right to insult someone, I assert that it's not particularly good for society. However, for recording police, I both acknowledge their right to do it and assert that it's of global benefit to society.
