Not having at least a functional dash camera in every squad car at this point is just irresponsible. Commercial grade units are so inexpensive now that they could run one as backup.
No recordings of any kind makes me suspicious of this whole incident.
Hard to do without looking like a weirdo. Also hard to do long term. Would be nice if you could have a camera in like, the button of your shirt that could run for several days and download it on something. Without even being noticed day to day
And the vast majority of those killings are because the non-cop attacked first. Stop acting like cops aren't also civilians. They aren't enlisted in the military and aren't subject to UCMJ. They're civilians.
Well before cameras, they would just find us in dark part of town and threaten to kill us. I was choked, my friend had a service pistol pushed into his skull. They openly admitted that they could yell some shit; kill us on the spot, and nothing would be done. And they were right.

Body cameras should be FOI-able too

Not sure if the tech is still available anywhere, but Google glasses fit that bill.
Bullshit. Cops kill about 20 times as many civilians than civilians killing cops.
You've got that backwards
How many of those people were unarmed?

How do you think crimes were solved before cameras? What reality do you live in? Seriously ignorant post.
