Don’t violate Civil Rights. Period.

Have you seen the number of frivolous civil rights complaints that get filed against even the good cops who follow all the rules?

It's staggering. Take away their qualified immunity and we won't have to worry about the efforts to defund the police, there won't be any.

This is countered by police body cameras quite nicely. Successful claims against departments that properly use cameras, especially departments that do *not* allow officers to switch off their cameras, have plummeted with the advent of this technology.

In practice, when properly administered, it’s only the bad cops that have problems with camera systems.

No. Why don't you show them to us?
