I’m saying, some people will antagonize the cop ON PURPOSE, just to see if he will explode - so they can film him - and continue to level the mantra, “all cops are bad”.
I do believe body cameras are going to help stop that.
Somehow, it seems the cop is never given the benefit of the doubt. While everyone else is allowed all sorts of leeway, or excuses for their actions.
And sometimes people act with courtesy and apologize to the cop even when an apology is not necessary in order to calm the cop down and yet the cop is still aggressive. As shown in this video.
Videotaping will change behavior on both sides. Hopefully.
Police unions oppose body cameras. Why do you think that is?
