Bad enough that police have to have body cams to protect themselves from thugs and vice versa but really sad they have to have them to protect themselves from people who are supposedly working together.

I have no problem with public employees having body cams.

That's a good thing (tm).

Put one a street department guy, and all you get is a picture of a shovel handle and arms across the chest as they watch the work get done.

Put one on a legislator, and you get PPV quality video.

Yeah... I like body cams for public employees.

The body cams work both ways.

There was no need to refer to Da Lin as a "reporter," thus insulting the few that actually do exist... somewhere other than in the fifth-column MSM.

I thought we had all agreed that it is racist to release evidence against a black person when they file a grievance against a white person?

I probably missed the explanation, but if all he is doing is ‘securing’ the station, wouldn’t it have been best to turn the lights on for that large room? Or maybe the three of them just arrived before the officer did.

I pause here to add that Mr. Jones and his sons are black and the police officer is white, so the reader now has an idea of where the story is headed.

As soon as I read that, yes, I could see where it was heading. I am not a conspiracy nut, but this one conspiracy, I DO believe in, that there is a democrat/media conspiracy to foment racism and division, by putting forth the myth: white people=bad and racists. Minority people=good and tolerant. Screw them.

No discipline for the cop....not a nickel for the fireman or the kids.

Lot of idiots here had already judged the cop guilty.

As time goes by there will be far less complaints against the police for “racist” actions. This will be the inevitable outcome as more police departments adopt body cam policies and more people discover they cannot so easily lie about police behavior as they have in the past.

thanks for posting!!! I just saw it at PJ Media. Interesting how this black firefighter got his sons lying for him. Now that is downright evil to corrupt you sons like this.....

All to cash in because we know the next step was hiring a lawyer. Were they robbing the fire station? I can’t tell from the article

When I commented on the original non-story posted on Free Republic it was obvious that the firefighter had made a big deal out of nothing. The story was then run by the local media without first checking with the police for the rest of the story.

If I was his Captain or Lieutenant he would be on probation until he personally apologized to the police officer and sent a letter to any of the media people he had talked to explaining how there was no racial component to the incident.

We are rapidly approaching the point that when the Justice Brothers and their cousins Obama and Holder cry “RACIST” all we hear is “WOLF”.

He had parked his SUV at Fire Station 29, which is a few blocks from the Oakland Coliseum... So, it's OK to park your private vehicle at at fire station if you are attending a football game?

The left’s purpose of the victim card is to establish a culture of two legal systems: One for racial and ethnic minorities, and one for the white majority.Eric Holder has shown us that from the beginning of 2008.

Eventually it will be assumed that black folks are “above the law,” because of the historic injustices their ancestors faced, which now have been comparativley mitigated. This kind of historic justice is one of the prime ingredients of fascism used by many politicians in Europe prior to World War II.There is no place for this pompous foolishness in the Constitution.

Keith Jones and all of his lefty race card psychopomps can shove it right up their collective patooties.That goes especially for Eric Holder and the Psychopomp in Chief, Barack Hussein Obama.

The Crime Mapping website must be selective or incomplete. I put my low income high population city zip in and it reported zero crimes for the past week. Impossible.

Two NY city police have told me on two different occasions that they have caught firemen stealing from houses after they had been in from a fire, but the charges could never go forward.
I wouldn’t have minded being a firemen in most areas Hang out for 24 hours in a station, work out, watch TV, have your wife come to the station to hang out ,and have hardly a call which calls for any danger.

The firemen here hardly do anything, infact it’ss rare to see a firetruck moving out of the station
