This one's for you, Buck.
Because if you wear a badge, you are subject to a different judicial systemWhat do we need a video for?
If the victim was unarmed (and did not have control of a lethal weapon ER: the car) and was shot in the back then video is not necessary, is it?

You do realize that 10% equals hundreds if not thousands of incidents? Is that OK to you? The point is there has been a shift in police behavior or it has been there all along but it needs to be addressed. How is any of this acceptable in 2016? MuyPequenoNC might be able to share some of his dicks with you. You're OK with sloppy seconds on tiny white peckers right?I dont have time to go through your list but Freddie Gray and Tamir Rice cases were acquitted by juries. It seems to me that if a cop shoots someone for any reason and does not go to jail you consider them facing a 'Different' judicial system.
I am not against body cameras. What they are going to show is that 90% of the time the cops do the right thing. And you people will simply disregard that and parade the 10% of other videos here to show how unfair life is and how bad the cops are while discounting all the good that they do.
Rinse, Repeat...

They are ALL acquitted, and that's the problem.I dont have time to go through your list but Freddie Gray and Tamir Rice cases were acquitted by juries.
Well, I think it should be based on evidence and reasonable doubt. Oh wait....They are ALL acquitted, and that's the problem.
Of course you do.Well, I think it should be based on evidence and reasonable doubt.
As should you.Of course you do.
Zero police convictions in 2015. No one is that good. Everyone makes mistakes, apparently except the police.As should you.
He threw that percentage out there haphazardly. The cops do the right thing 99.9999% of the time. I doubt there are more than ten "bad shoots" per year and those are prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. If you chuckleheads have proof the number is higher than that, I'd love to see it. And by proof, I don't mean incidents that hurt your liberal feelz.You do realize that 10% equals hundreds if not thousands of incidents? Is that OK to you?

The body camera of a Chicago police officer who fatally shot an unarmed teenager on the South Side last week was not recording when he opened fire, police officials said Monday.
Department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said the department is investigating why the equipment didn't capture the shooting of 18-year-old Paul O'Neal, who was struck in the back.
The officer, as well as two others involved in the shooting, had received the camera equipment just recently, according to Guglielmi.
The department moved swiftly in the days after the Thursday night shooting to relieve all three officers of their police powers after a preliminary determination concluded they had violated department policy.
O'Neal was shot about 7:30 p.m. Thursday near 74th Street and Merrill Avenue after he crashed a reportedly stolen Jaguar into two Chicago police vehicles and took off running.
Two officers had opened fire at O'Neal while he was in the Jaguar, according to police sources. A third officer who had been in one of the police vehicles struck by the Jaguar gave chase after O'Neal fled on foot and fatally shot him. The Cook County medical examiner's office said O'Neal was struck in the back.

Sure mistakes are made, but that's not the narrative you've been selling, is it?Zero police convictions in 2015. No one is that good. Everyone makes mistakes, apparently except the police.
I disagree. Mistakes would lead to convictionsSure mistakes are made, but that's not the narrative you've been selling, is it?
No convictions means that they're all "good shoots". They even come with paid vacations.So, none of the legal experts in here had a rebuttal to this post? We can chalk this one up as a "good shoot".
Not according to the FBI, the NEW standard for indictment requires intent.I disagree. Mistakes would lead to convictions
OKNot according to the FBI, the NEW standard for indictment requires intent.
Please do. You're the kind of guy who gasps when someone says God Damn but Nazi and racist talk is A OK USA!Keep up with the personal attacks and I start reporting you too.. I am getting sick of them.
Yes, I realize that there are hundreds of thousands of incidents among a population of 300 million people. My point is that bad shootings are incredibly rare. As demonstrated, Padwan just posted a list of people shot without regard to circumstance or whether the police were justified or not.
I am saying cameras are going to prove the cops are right a whole lot more than they are wrong but again, you guys are going to trot out the bad stuff while discounting all the good stuff.
No bad shootings are ok for me. The shift in police behavior has been for the better over the decades. The murder rate has constantly declined. Our communites are relatively safe and all you want to do is attack the cops for not being beyond perfect.
Hey, I have an idea... How about the criminals behavior needs to be addressed. If you resist arrest, if you fight with the police, if you attempt to escape, YOU have chosen the consequences of your actions.
Again, it is the actions of the people that are causing their deaths, and they are to blame for those actions, not the police.
