1. It's interesting timing given what's happening with the uptick in the pandemic and Kabul.

   Many won't notice.

2. Buh 👋

3. Then why bother having them?? Why burden the taxpayer further?

4. What good does this accomplish for the public?

5. 🤐

6. They Already have control
   No cam needed if you don't have corruption in the first place

7. If cops are allowed to work in the shadows then what is the purpose to have cops.
   If you cannot trust them, they should not be cops. That is it.

8. It’s time we stand up to the pigs. They are just humans like us. That we the civilians gave the power to “protect” us!

9. All three branches of government are currently corrupted and broken. Say goodbye democracy .

10. The CCP urgently halted the anti-sanctions law, only delaying time. Just like Hong Kong’s national security law, after the CCP’s control of the economy is restored, it will again propose the anti-sanctions law. For a CCP that has no good faith, what else will the West be deceived? It should be time to categorically withdraw from Hong Kong and decouple from the CCP. If you are still obsessed with the lies of the CCP, the international community will be deceived again.

11. This is a F****UP.

12. Wth! Where's Biden and kamala's input on this?

13. Eeeww what a pretty color shirt. 😁

14. Too many kicks to the head on tape while cuffed or dead.

15. So bad cops win

16. I find it laughable abs highly doubtful the local chiefs were revolting because they wanted MORE transparency

17. The cops don’t own the footage, it belongs to the public

18. Criminals hate cameras

19. It would be nice if they used body cams in my city just maybe they're too corrupt for body cams 🤫🤭🤔🤣😂

20. Should not be able to turn them off at all most towns don't even have any , and the feds would do better not partnering with trumper far right cops.

21. "Local police reviewed bodycam footage and determined there was no crime committed. As such the footage will not be made available to the public." Expect a lot of that going forward

22. i wonder how much money was paid for that to be passed illegally.

23. After this insane decision there'll be no body cam videos of anything, only citizens with their phones will record any evidence..

24. Honorable but not detailing personnel to a multi-agency task force does come at a cost. They'll be out that federal money which is typically spent in training and equipment for their own dep't.

25. End qualified immunity or live as slaves and peasants. Body cameras should be mandatory at all times while on shifts. The cops have been policing themselves for too long and have proven that it doesn't work. Also the police unions must be done away with.

26. Big mistake!!!! They're literally going to get away with "murder".

27. Why not, I have total control over my body cam in which I'm filming anyone who comes near me. Especially the Pigs.

28. We need help we need to transparency too many killings too much anger stop the genocide

29. They don't like being policed. This is the way to hide their crimes. We are are going back to the time cameras weren't on cops. And they policed themselves; which many broke the law.

30. She's right about 1 thing Flloyd's death made cops even more paranoid about being exposed

31. Because of the sensitive nature of the interactions that a Officer may have with someone, I don't like the idea of general public having access to all body camera footage. There's does need to be open transparency, so my balance would be that if a licensed attorney request access to body cam footage to review an interaction, and the agency doesn't provide that footage, then I think the department should face a fine and the Officer have to explain the reason for the absence of the footage.

32. Wow.. I have no words

33. These POS reporters don't talk about how local police will hide, destroy or just claim these is no footage.
    Merrick Garland is a F'ing failure.
