The truth of the matter is that bodycams may have been the single greatest idea to debunk the insane claims from the BLM communities that cops are systemically racist.
More often than not, bodycam footage from police altercations actually shows the danger that police officers are in on a day-to-day basis rather than showing them acting with impunity and seeking out altercations with minorities.
You could make the argument that they have been the driving force in dealing a deathblow to the BLM movement.

They count on their sheep-like followers to forget what they said yesterday, or last year.
Sometimes it's "no one is above the law."
Other times it's "sanctuary cities," where the law isn't enforced, and may God help you if you're trying to enforce it.
I remember when those were being screamed and I thought, "you Left wingers aren't going to like it"
Yes, I remember people pointing that out here, on FR. Maybe you.
Oops. Unintended consequences strikes the left again.
Government owned body cameras attached to public servants are great.
Privately owned cameras in the hands of We the People are even better.
Indeed like cockroaches hate light bulbs.
Mildly related, I went to visit a lady friend in jail. With all the restrictions on what she can’t do or can’t have, I asked her how she spent time all day.
Turns out the jail had a TV in the central area but the only channel the women would watch was the bodycam arrest videos channel.
I must admit, I enjoy watching women get arrested in these videos. They are far more entertaining than the men. First, women “never do anything wrong”, always find something or someone else to blame and have been taught by feminists that their bodies are to never be touched, even by police. They act out as if there are no consequences to their actions. They kick and scream and make threats.
I’ve watched a bunch of police body cam videos.
What they have to deal with is insane.
“What they have to deal with is insane.”
I’m pregnant
I can’t breath
where’s the warrant
You can’t touch me I’m a woman
You can’t touch me I’m a minor
What I do
I dindu nuffin
I got no ID
racist
you gonna kill me
where my phone
call my mama
etc................
Every law enforcement officer in my rural Oklahoma county is 100% for body cameras.
One of my guilty pleasures is watching body cam footage on rumble. Every black female criminal seems to have gone through the same finishing school, 100% of them say the exact same things. They are very entertaining. “I don’t give a f” where my foam at” “call my momma” “I dindu nuffin” “I can’t breeve” It’s like it is genetic.
You forgot, “Call a supervisor!”
JANUARY 25, 2026
President Donald Trump’s administration opposed efforts to expand the use of body cameras by immigration officers and sharply cut oversight staffing as it surged officers into Minneapolis and other cities, leading to a series of violent clashes.
Cameras worn by officers have long been central to police reform efforts for this reason. The Trump administration, however, moved last year to slow-walk a pilot program to give ICE officers body cameras, urging Congress in June to cut the funding by 75% and bucking a nationwide trend of cameras for law enforcement.
Darius Reeves, who was the director of ICE’s Baltimore field office until August, said a body camera pilot program rollout had been slow in 2024 under President Biden, a Democrat, and “died on the vine” under Trump, a Republican.
US Customs and Border Protection - Border Patrol’s parent agency - had 13,400 cameras for some 45,000 officers as of June, according to a congressional aide.
ICE launched a body-camera pilot program in 2024 and deployed cameras to officers in five cities: Baltimore, Buffalo, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC.
While the Trump administration kept the program, it called on Congress to freeze its expansion and slash funds to run it in its budget request for fiscal year 2026.
The proposal called for maintaining ICE’s 4,200 body-worn cameras but cutting the 22-person staff to three employees and running the program in a more “streamlined” approach.
A homeland security spending bill passed in the Republican-controlled House of Representatives last week rejected that proposal, instead providing $20 million for ICE and Border Patrol cameras.
Still, the bill - which now faces a challenging route to passage in the US Senate - did not require either agency to use the devices.
Scott Shuchart, a top ICE official under Biden, said officers do not bring the cameras with them when detailed to other locations outside their normal operating area, an issue that has been more relevant as officers have been surged to cities around the country.
The Trump administration placed some 300 workers in three separate DHS oversight offices on paid leave in early 2025 as it redirected thousands of federal agents from across government to assist its crackdown, a move that drew criticism from Democrats and civil rights groups.
A lawsuit over the reductions argues the Trump administration effectively eliminated the offices, something only Congress would be authorized to do, and left no way to address abuses.
In May, a career federal employee, Ronald Sartini, was tasked with top roles at three of the oversight offices, including the one that handled allegations of abuse in immigration detention.
As of December, there were only a few employees per office. The Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman had three full-time employees and two detailees, compared to more than a hundred in March.
“You forgot, “Call a supervisor!”
Many of them go like this:
Wat you stop me for? repeated 50 times.
Cop: roll down you window repeated 50 times.
Cop breaks window.
Don’t touch me! repeated 50 times.
Cop pulls her out of car.
You ain’t arresting me! repeated 50 times.
Cop puts handcuff on.
I ain’t going to jail! repeated 50 times.
Cop throws her in car and takes her to jail.
There also call your supervisor and let me call whoever thrown in there, too. Repeated 50 times.
“You out here killing all of us!”
“I don’t have no ID!”
“I ain’t getting out my car!”
“I finna sue yo @ss!”
“Yo RACIST!”
“Bro!”
*Guilty of watching waaaay too many body cam videos LOL.
Yes!
Oooh yeah, one of the most important.
*I can’t breathe* while screaming at the top of their lungs.
Bodycam Bingo.
