Recording with a Video or Voice Recorder
Legally can this be done by someone . . . I carrya Digital Voice Recorder with me every time I OC. It's in a small camera pouch with my extra magazine on my belt. hey it was $2 cheapness. but it works
Say . . . I'm at Swill-Mart, and some irrate customer starts throwing a bitch. or say some public area not on private property Is it legal to use a video/voice recorder to protect oneself.

Re: Recording with a Video or Voice Recorder
My understanding is that PA is a two party consent state so without the other parties consent it probably wouldn't be usable in court and could violate some privacy laws.
http://www.rcfp.org/taping/ I'm not sure how that impacts some of these gadgets out there like the cameras on tasers etc. Perhaps an attny could give more accurate feedback.

Re: Recording with a Video or Voice Recorder
IANAL.
The exception to consent is loss of "expectation of non-interception". In my opinion, if they are aware that you are recording them, it is impossible for them to have an "expectation of non-interception". If they do not wish to be recorded, their option is to remove themselves from the situation. YMMV.

Re: Recording with a Video or Voice Recorder
You could wire yourself up with a concealed video system, But no audio without consent.

Re: Recording with a Video or Voice Recorder
I believe there is also a difference between say recording a private citizen versus a police officer. Surveillance on a private individual being illegal, but I remember reading some strong arguments as to why the recording of LEOs would not be prohibited. That said...you may find yourself in court.
