If you run out in the street and do something stupid, you have no claims to privacy because you're in public view. You don't get to have the guys taping you jailed to shut them up.
Your partisan hyperbole is quaint but does not address the legal issue.

Still waiting for Micael (or you, if you'd care) to cite the State of Maryland code which examines this area of their law. Since this is the location where there is question, it's certainly appropriate.You can assume til the cows come home, but that doesn't make for a terribly compelling argument before a judge (where it actually matters).
