America is fucked and what you said happens here too but mostly people get away with filming police as it technically is legal and that's been backed up by courts here. Buuuuut police will try to tell you it's not allowed or could consider it "impeding an investigation" if they want to be dicks. Cops here have virtually unlimited power to do what they want, they show up armed and in numbers so not much one can do to fight back.
But seriously whatever country in the EU you're from that's absolutely wild they would make it illegal to film police in a public space. Well, wild to me maybe not to others.
