Phanatic posted:How about this? Two cameras, each recording to a 2-minute buffer as previously described, persistent write enabled on button press. Cops carry two cameras, a main and a backup. If you're a cop, and both your cameras fail, you're fired. If you violate policy on when to hit the button, you're fired. If you've reformed police to the point where this actually becomes a mandatory fireable offense, you've already made reforms that render body cams pointless because you now have a police force with accountability. The problem we're facing has nothing to do with a lack of evidence; cases come out all the drat time with solid proof that procedure was violated, all the way up to cops shooting proven unarmed and innocent people, and they consistently face no punishment whatsoever. You can't even get a cop fired for committing murder. If you've reformed police so much that messing up camera procedure in a suspicious way actually results in a firing instead of a wink and a pinky swear not to do it again, you no longer have a lovely police force that needs to be recorded 24/7 in the hopes that a judge will convict the cops for breaking the law.

JOHNSON COCKSLAP posted:You're fired if two lovely gopros break? GoPros don't fail at anywhere near the rate that police body cameras do. For some reason. Seriously, the things have been carried away by birds and wrecked in motorcycle crashes and dropped out of airplanes and blown up by IEDs and the video has been recovered. They're amazingly robust. Change it to "if both your cameras fail, you're put on immediate desk duty pending an IA investigation" and it's got my vote.

That guy has tertiary syphilis or something. Trompe is about as street smart as a shi tzu puppy that Paris Hilton kept in her handbag for 60 years. And actually insulted McCain for getting shot down in 'nam, even though he got multiple draft deferments for "bad feet" and "I'm totally going to kollidge" (McCain did crash a lot of planes and not just in hostile territory so it's a fair shot, not like that swiftboat nonsense about Kerry [who is an idiot and failbag but an actual guy who went out and fought like JFK])

That speedbump video is extremely my poo poo. I once saw a presumably very expensive sports car basically drive over its own bumper because the stupid loving things aren't designed for even the gentlest of gradients. It was amazing, and seeing that supercar dropping into first gear to take a speedbump diagonally was almost as funny.

Toys For Twats posted:John McCain is an American hero, lol at you wishing death on him just because you disagree with his politics. I don't wish death on him. Cancer sucks and no one should have to deal with it. But he's somehow convinced the large portions of the left that he's a maverick because he says something cranky about policy right before he marches in lockstep with his party. He could have helped keep his party from showing fealty to Trump, but instead he pulled his usual bullshit.

I want to like McCain but it's true. He could have went for the jugular during the Comey interview. McCain when he was running for president reminds me of Sean Connery accepting his role in League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and not understand what was going on but his agent told him it was a good idea. "Who's this crazy lady from Alaska? You want her to be my running mate? I don't know what's happening right now but if you think it's a good idea..." Speaking of Palin, it's always funny to me that she didn't manage to get on board with the current administration. I always thought she used up all her crazy just a few years too early...

A side of Schadenfreude: Sean Connery turned down the part of Morpheus in The Matrix because he didn't understand what the gently caress was going on in the script. Then he turned down the part of Gandalf in the Lord of the Rings movies because he didn't understand what the gently caress was going on in the script. Then he took the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen job because he didn't understand what the gently caress was going on in the script, and apparently that's a good sign for a film. Then he quit acting forever.

It didn't get a lot of play nationally, but she was the target of a bunch of ethics investigations prior to her resigning as Governor of Alaska and if she tried to get into the Trump administration, all that stuff would get dredged back up. And why bother with that when there's plenty of other folks on the Religious Right who don't carry that much baggage. At this point, she's about as politically radioactive as Chris Christie and she knows it.

I don't how anyone can say in the Trump era that past scandals are an impediment to getting elected. We're not throwing out old assumptions quickly enough.

I am 100% for single-payer, but this argument is always dumb. He has employer-sponsored healthcare, which the plurality of Americans have. It's not single payer (they select from different plans) and he has to pay premiums. It's true that it has more coverage than my own insurance, but I'd expect that from someone with a more important, higher-paying job. Giving them lovely insurance would surely be a motivating factor for them to fix the system, but they certainly can't be blamed for having standard-issue federal employee benefits with a few extra perks.
