Police union threatens legal action over Metro’s decision to test body-mounted cameras

With the level of killing and -- he did, he didn't argument, should police wear body camera or nah? If not, should African American males wear them?

I am only asking because the police officers refuse to wear them. See the article above.

I think public employees who carry guns and have the power to detain you should wear cameras.

In b4 messT

What kinda question
I don't see why police wouldn't wear them unless they've got something to hide, which they obviously do considering the vastly un proportionate rates of arrests and killing of black people.

Exactly.

Most already have cameras in their squad cars though.

It's already proven that them wearing camera reduces shootings and illegal activity. They don't want to wear them because they can't hide their bs.

lmao black guys wearing cams
Seriously tho, I really do think that this is gonna be a problem until the government takes power away from police departments but unfortunately it looks like its going in the opposite direction

Omg. This thread

tbh

Squad cars aren't everywhere the cop is though

African Americans film the police at work all the time and there are hours of evidence of police brutality on YouTube yet nothing happens......
Police should def wear it, they are carrying lethal weapons everyday and there are far too many examples of them acting inappropriately with them.

whats happening here?

Why don't they just make a bulletcam?

On cops obviously

but because of how hard it seems to be for cops to cooperate, maybe every black male just needs to start wearing Google glasses and recording everything.

It has nothing to do with race and everything to do with poverty and lack of education, which was brought to specific ethnicities by white men over the course of a thousand years. It's our problem, not theirs.
