Last night I left the gym and had my windows rolled down to not stink the car up, NWA gently caress the police came on my radio as I sat texting at a red light. I look up to check the light eventually and there was a cop next to me with his windows rolled down, texting as well. The light turned gree and we both were on our way White power?

You as a citizen issue a formal complaint, video gets used by IA/whoever to verify conduct. You as an officer have to do anything beyond talking to people, video gets used by the DA as evidence. Nothing happens or no complaints, video rots in the cloud or wherever.

It does come in handy. There was an arson case earlier this year that I was on the jury for. The body cam footage was extremely helpful.

Maarek posted:I agree completely and this is the key element in all this, it's only these social justice warrior people who act this way. That's why their groupthink has such a bad effect on the discourse in that forum. For example, if you posted about black ladies and "those people" in D&D people would immediately call you a racist and don't even get me started on what they'd say when you point out that most of the time black people put themselves in positions to get hurt. Here in this thread you're free to express your ideas and if people don't like them, they're free to logically argue with you about them without any social justice warrior nonsense. here's a stunning example of the problem with internet debate. After stating the clearly delusional position that there are parts of the country where violence is actually a problem: Kaal posted:You live in one of the safest places in the world, have an incredibly safe and privileged job as one of the American legal elite, and yet still engage in the cowardly belief that you are so endangered and downtrodden that police need to come out guns blazing in order to protect you. Wake up. CheesyDog posted:Look guys, we all know that law firms are infamous for being located in the middle of the worst parts of town with the highest crime rates and not in upscale office buildings near courthouses. He's taking his life into his very hands the second he steps out of his office (located between a crackhouse and a meth lab) into the ghetto battlefield. Reality: I work in one of america's ten most violent small cities. Our courthouse, in which I work, looks like it's in the middle of a demilitarized zone complete with abandoned buildings and burned out buildings, and all of our homicides generally take place within a 2 mile radius. As a scare tactic, it's not uncommon for people to take cell phone pics of the people involved in the hallways. We can keep the phones out of the courtrooms themselves, but the hallways...yeah. Hard to police that. we've actually had a murder on the goddamn courthouse steps. (but that was admittedly a while ago) In the past year, my case load has been: DUI (meh whatever); Stabbing; rape of a child; serial home invasion rapist; capital murder of a child witness; murder; felony murder/armed robbery; murder; rape of a child x2; murder; murder; murder; armed robbery; kidnap and attempted murder; capital murder; drug ring. I'm forgetting some, but you get the jist. Now, these murders didn't all happen this year, some are habeas matters going back a while. But this is the poo poo we care about. but of course, I'm just afraid of poor people.

It's not like there's an expectation of privacy when talking to a police officer on duty, and it shouldn't be complicated to carve out an exception when private conversations do need to happens - perhaps turning the camera off if both the officer and person being talked to agree to turn it off, and there is more than one officer in the room.

So there is alao that, I'll have to find the article. The FOIA stuff could really easily be used for witch hunt kind of stuff like you said or just abused. What stuff should be view-able, like if a cop gets a personal phone call during his shift can that be viewed during FOIA requests and so on. What if he goes home for lunch? There are some things that need to be ironed out before I feel like it wouldn't be kind of screwing some of the officers.

Or just erase all footage at the end of the shift if there are no incidents.

Casimir Radon posted:A lot of tasers have had cameras in them for years for liability reasons. We might as well put them on guns now so the next time somebody is crying about a cop blowing away their precious innocent baby they can be presented with video of him brandishing a meat cleaver. I'd prefer body cameras that any kind of weapon cam. Our first batch of tasers came with the camera attachment but the problem with those were that they'd only show the 2-3 seconds it took for the officer to draw, activate aim and fire the taser instead of the minute or so prior that lead up to the dude being tased. Those videos sure do show that a guy got tased, but they never showed the why-> how he was acting just before being tased. Bring on the body cams though, if I was still working a beat I'd love to have one. Let that bitch run anytime I have to talk to anyone about anything at all.

Love using a experienced system and fix the bugs with it. Be cool to find out the cost and how much the cost would scale up/down depending on the size of the department. Wonder if it could be like a healthcare.gov thing where the fed provide a system or the states make their own. Would suck figuring out each state specific laws and quick through.

So there is alao that, I'll have to find the article. Make him pay for the costs incurred then. So long as the cost per request is reasonable it shouldn't be noticeable for anyone not making absurd requests and plenty of govt institutions make you pay for all kinds of stuff. The practical stuff is nothing a nation that spends it's weekends hunting hill tribes with flying killer robots via world wide remote cannot figure out. The question is just convincing someone to fund it well enough to get it right. I'd think the societal gains from making dumb cops play nice, and being able to show whether the black guy had it comming would outweigh the costs. Hell, you could make the argument that whatever the purely economical cost it's probably less than tax losses from the aftermath of riots that could have been avoided if we had a simple way to prove what happened. As far as convincing, tell the right it's for recording the thugs and tell the left it's for recording The Man. I'm sure someone will get hosed by the justice system as a result, but if legal liability was a legitimate enough concern not to do something in America then you couldn't even get out of bed and brew a cup of coffee in the morning.
