Hey Mrs Brown, your 15 minutes is past due. Your son tried to kill a cop and got killed instead. Deal with it.

If officer Wilson had been wearing a body camera showing the attack by Michael Brown this entire farcial would have ended the minute the camera video was viewed.

Yup. Cameras should be a no-brainer. It protects both parties equally.

Maybe had Brown’s parents spent a little more time training their son about right and wrong he would be alive today. Now they seek to get publicity with a mutt like Al Sharpton.
Their son went looking for trouble and he got it.

If the “Press” were honest, they would boycott this “press conference.”

Hey Al!

How much evidence would it take to shut you up?

That’s right Al!

Live video from 6 views would NOT keep you from stirring up trouble.

Yes, isnt it though. If you go for the camera count on getting shot w/ the gun you passed over. If you go for the gun then it gets recorded. Decisions, decisions....

I just read the testimony of Brown’s accomplice in the robbery. If it didn’t involve the death of a human being it would be hilarious. He got up in the morning and the first thing on his mind was going to get cigarillos so he could smoke weed. But he was on the verge of looking for work.

I’d love some police camera footage of them putting down the vermin with pepper foggers and fire hoses.

It’s a lot like Shelton Lee’s movie, “Do The Right Thing”.

Bully, steal from, try to kill the honky pizza man.
Uh oh, a gangsta-wanna-be gets smoked ... dayum!
So burn down the business, then show up the next day in the smoking ruins.
After instigating the tragedy, hold out hand and demand that the ruined Man do the right thing and pay you.

Or that the camera footage “doctored”.

The funny part is that those claims quickly dry up when the camera evidence is reviewed. In fact, most claims of racial bias start vanishing. Car and body cameras are very popular in the South for these reasons, but for some reason departments up North have been very slow to adopt the tech in general.

I think they should get them and then show the fools families how these idiots behave. Put them on the nightly news. Shame can be a good thing.

Excellent idea. Publish it all, raw and uncut. I used to watch "Cops" but that was edited for content and national TV. No more. Show the world exactly what these "gentle giants" and kids "just out for tea and skittles" are really like. Raw.

Darren Wilson, many other good cops and a lot of playful yard bound puppies are in favor of Cop Body Cams.

(Trainee Thugs, trigger happy JBTs and Moslem infiltrators, not so much.)

You know these people are getting impatient.

It’s almost 4 months since their thug son was shot for attacking a cop and they still haven’t made any serious money from the incident.

Maybe they should have bought Saint Trayvon’s mother in to advise them on their financial extortion strategy.

Body cameras in this case would’ve put the lie to the lefts racism claims a hell of a lot sooner.

Blacks are not going to want indisputable factual evidence of encounters with the police.

How long before liberals start whining that police body cameras are a violation of a person's right to privacy?

Have you noticed that a lot of the criticism of the Ferguson Prosecutor from blacks is that he was unfair or biased because he presented all the available evidence to the grand jury? They complain that he did not selectively withhold evidence so he could finagle an indictment.

I’m all for cops wearing body cameras. But how about Al Sharptongue wear one too? Then we could see and hear all the race baiting and expose him for the piece of human garbage that he is.
