Should the public be permitted to videotape Police as objective witnesses?


Police continue to harass citizens who record them.

I have only a few words on this matter. YES.. And cops conducting raids, or activities with a high likelihood of physical contact and/or use of force, should be required to wear a head mounted camera.

I know that SpecOps folks wear them for their missions (although for classified afteraction review and intel gathering), so there is no reason that SWAT personnel shouldn't be required to wear them when they are in a position where their actions might be called into question.

This can serve as a tool for protecting BOTH the public and the police force.
