The Eavesdropping part - no audio, but video is not a problem so you can  
film whoever you like so long as you turn the microphone off.
Cops not obliged to protect you - Of course if you look at it logically.  
The purpose of the police is to enforce the law, the protection part  
simply falls under that. So if a cop sees someone come at you with a knife  
they're going to stop that person - not to protect you but because trying  
to stab someone is an offence.
