And seeing the video every time something like a killing happens, would provide us taxpayers with the data we need.


Once something like that is implemented I can't guarantee but I will tell you will see arrests, complaints against the department and violent encounters will decrease. Finding out whether a police shooting is justifiable or not is a not the point, it is keeping the police accountable for all interactions.

I am a law abiding citizen but no matter the situation I always do it
