    Did everything I wrote in the post before this one, just go right over your head?

    I agree. If I were a police chief...I'd want every officer in my department to have one. Why? They'd be a great way to weed out bad apples...and they'd be a great way to cover the officers *** in the event that something like this happened.

    In this case, it wouldn't have made a difference though. If there was a UAV overhead filming the entire altercation, the officer had a video camera on him (i.e. Glasses cam), multiple individuals filmed the event from different angles and uploaded it online immediately, people would have still had the same reaction.

    I think a glasses cam would have been knocked off by a 300lb backed punch

    You've lost me, here, Patty. Are you saying Wilson went to work that day with that question in his head? You seem bent on crucifying the officer regardless of the evidence presented.

    I'm sure it would have. My point was only that in this situation...there's no amount of evidence that would have satisfied the opposing side.

    I can't believe that cell phone video of the incident isn't all over the intranet ......

    I guess you don't remember the Tawana Brialey circus then, when the black teenage girl cried rape against a white cop in Poughkeepsie NY, Al Sharpton came in spouting his racist bs, long story short, she admitted to lying about the whole thing, Sharpton went slithering back to his hideout, but not before the cops life was ruined. I have no idea why anyone listens to anything Sharpton says. You really need to get better educated on these matters. Obama, Holder, Sharpton and the rest of the racists are dividing the country.

    So, you admit to ignoring an informative post because it was too long for you to read?

    See, this is the reason the rioters and protesters are doing what they're doing. They are too busy - strike that - too lazy to read up on the facts and blindly follow what the media and the interwebz tell them. Same reason we have the administration we do today.
