In an interview this morning, the step father said; "we want to know what made officer Wilson wake up with a chip on his shoulder and kill our son". Why didn't the interviewer ask "why did your son wake up with a chip on HIS shoulder, and get the belief that it was OK to strong arm a store owner, and then ATTACK a police officer".
I had to stop watching the news. I was getting too upset. Every time I hear that Lawyer for the Brown family my blood boils.....
Geraldo wants tasers not tanks.
I remember hearing that last night before I turned in. Dont most departments issue tasers already?
I mean the only thing that I somewhat agree with is body cams (Though I wouldnt want to be recorded every minute I am at work, how would I INGO). I do think they would show a lot more to a story then what a few eye witnesses saw though hear say from a cousin that saw it from 2 miles away. Does our local police on INGO have a position on body cameras (I'm sure it has been discussed before).
I've been pushing for body cams for my dept for awhile. Currently we have in-car cameras with external body mics that record our conversations with the public. I don't mind having everything I do recorded. I have nothing to hide from anyone.I remember hearing that last night before I turned in. Dont most departments issue tasers already?

Mine is activated when my emergency lights are activated, or when I manually turn it on.Would it be up to the officer to turn the camera on then? I see your point and wouldn't want the footage recorded the entire time either. You can imagine the accusations when in the moment the officer forgets to turn it on when something suddenly happens though.

I found a great cure for that; ignore any and all news reports about FergusonI had to stop watching the news. I was getting too upset. Every time I hear that Lawyer for the Brown family my blood boils.....
Smith: Unrest in Ferguson is unacceptable, but sadly understandable
Apparently tearing up your town is perfectly ok if you have a reason
I watched the interview with Officer Wilson, and one thing really strikes out to me. Wilson states that when Brown grabbed his handgun, and Wilson tried to pull the trigger, it would not fire because Brown had his hand on top of the gun. That obviously makes zero sense. The only thing I can think of is that the gun may have been a double action, and brown had his hand on the hammer, and this prevented it from cocking back and firing.
Here is a link to the interview. What do you all think?
