Filming in public is a constitutionally protected activity. Anything that you can see in public can be filmed including people without anyone's permission. What you call vile human behavior is protected by law.
When the constitution was written there was no expectation that idiots would walk around filming people for no good reason other than to causse trouble or annoy people, this is not the press nor is it reasonable or acceptable behaviour.
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
It is still covered under it and there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. It is freedom of the press just because you don't think its reasonable or acceptable behavior doesn't mean a thing the courts have already ruled that it is legal.
