A body camera would have proved that Officer Darren Wilson acted in self defense.
Be careful of what you wish for.
The minute something like that happens, Sharpton, Jackson and Holder will be out there screaming that the video has been doctored and demand their own forensic investigator who will prove it to be fake.
Then we'll be back at square one because of the racists who made the cameras.
They just would ignore the evidence.
In the big picture, body cams will make absolutely NO difference. There already were videos that recorded the violent Michael Brown minutes before he was shot.
That video did not make one iota of difference. The media is acting like it is a mystery what happened. It is not!
If the Wilson had a camera that recorded exactly what happened, the race baiters just would have ignored this particular instance, and would have found one where a black man was killed and the cop’s camera view was not aimed in the right direction.
The race baiters and liars only need to find one instance in the entire USA where the body camera video is not clear, and they have their next victim.
That is what the grand jury testimony proved.
But to liars, truth matters not.
The body cameras are not being put in place to protect the cops or the truth. They will never be used to help a cop or a white person with the truth.
They will be misused for the benefit of a certain group: black thugs. And if the evidence contained on the camera will show a belligerent black thug asking for trouble, the camera evidence either will not be used at all or will be twisted to focus on the microagressions made by the racist cop.
You’re right. If Wilson had a body camera on him none of the Furguson stuff would have happened.
Think how our ‘civil rights’ liars would have reacted to the store clerk saying Brown had bullied him - IF their wasn’t a video showing the truth...
Body cameras will help the police - and open the eyes of people about the reality of the ‘black community’.
