In reply to the discussion: The photo seems to disprove DHS's narrative [View all]SunSeeker
(57,747 posts)32. It's a digital pocket camera. People have been using these so as not to risk their phones.
Looks like a $30 PopSnap pocket camera by Vivitar from Target or Walmart.
I bought a cheap $30 Vivitar PopSnap pocket camera for my son for travel, and found it can record really good video, so long as you insert a 32GB or 64GB SD card in it so it has the memory to record the video(s). Very handy for recording ICE. And it is super compact, it will easily fit in a shirt pocket, under a hat, etc. I am sure there are similar cameras on Amazon as well.
That way, you don't risk your phone. My whole world is on my phone. No way would I want Trumps Nazis taking my phone. They can have my PopSnap.

Another video, apparently from the woman in the pink coat. The man was helping people, no gun in hand.
