Why Bodycams are a Bad Idea

[Blue Heeler]

Wow, you can't answer a simple question without deflecting. Typical. You just won the prize you eloquently described.

He had his lil' feelings hurt by a LEO once so he is a bit bent. Not sure if he plays for prizes, maybe just a participation ribbon.

Everyone needs a trophy, don't they?

Both of ya just one first prize!

Huh oh, gear change.

Sadly, no. He is at his normal speed.

Don’t you just love a happy ending?

What comes around, goes around and I never had to lift a finger or say a word.

You say that now, but wait until you need to call one.

I'm not sure where your discontent for law enforcement stems from and this is not the first time I've seen your anti-law enforcement rhetoric within this group. Clearly you have had a less than pleasurable encounter with them in the past and for that I am sorry. However, you judging all LEO by your bad encounter is just as bad as the Democommies saying all of us gun owners are violent killers...smh

Only problem with cops, they are just like any other group of people. Some are great/good, some are bad, some are in between. To say they are all good, is as ludicrous to say they are all bad.

Exactly, I've known many in my day, many were great people who truly wanted to make a difference, then there were a few I wouldn't trust to be a janitor.

Cop???? Seems more like unprofessional bully's in a clown suit. Stand by my first statement. Ethical/professional law enforcement officers would never stoop that low or condone that type of behavior.

So considering that they all seem like a chummy bunch, I'm sure the ethical/professional ones were the first to report this and bring it to public light rather than it requiring a lawsuit or something on the part of the family?

The cops could have handled that a lot better and I agree body cams are a great thing for cops. They will help protect the good ones and weed out the bad. Then cities will be forced to pay higher salaries to get good cops and keep them.

Oh god that would be horrible. To pay for real trained professionals? Reminds me of the time I have to have a complicated surgery and I checked around and found reviews, records, etc that indicated that paying for the expensive surgeon would likely have a better outcome for me. Would these folks have ethical standards, respect the rule of law? Next up you might suggest we do like many countries and have a 4 year degree requirement, things like that?

Except that the good ones seem to shelter the bad ones. Lots of videos in public the last few years showing the bad folks but not a lot of news about the good ones doing much about it from what I've seen.

Just like most other groups.
