TABC Officers Try To Stop Activist From Taking Pictures

If you live anywhere near Lower Greenville, the name Avi Adelman probably invokes strong emotions.

Avi has, for years, worked to bring about more code enforcement and law enforcement in the area. He publishes lists of miscreants who have been arrested in the area for a plethora of charges.

Some like his style, some don't--but everyone has something to say about it.

On Texas-OU weekend, Avi was out and saw an arrest taking place after an apparent failed hit-and-run. He whipped out his camera phones and began to take video.

Only this time, several officers from the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission decided to try and prevent it. It seems the female officer was concerned about the arrested female's right to "freedom from embarassment."

It seems someone hasn't talked to these guys about Freedom of the Press... yet.
