That's what I think I would normally do, but I have found myself wondering if that would be strong enough to interrupt them when they're all aggroed up, though? I think there is a mentality of "I don't care if I'm being filmed" or "I don't care what anyone thinks" when that adrenaline is infusing everything they're doing.

People were trying that when Derek Chauvin had his knee on George Floyd's neck and Chauvin was calm at that point. I thought I probably would have pushed the cop to get his knee moved even if I knew I'd take a beating because it would disrupt the pattern, at least momentarily, and make Floyd at least a little less of a target, but of course, that results in two victims and most people are smart enough to not allow themselves to be victimized.

If they were doing an actual beating like in the video and you walked up and started recording you would quickly become part of the beating. Derek Chauvin didn't think what he was doing was that crazy because shit like in the video we just saw is normal to these freaks. Same with when they killed Eric Garner. Both of those were in broad daylight in front of citizens filming because that's not even close to "police brutality" as far as the police are concerned.
