There is an attitude in law enforcement that is you follow someone long enough, a knowledgeable Cop will be able to find enough probable cause to validate a stop...I never saw a thing in this video that gave me enough PC, based on my training and experience, that would make a good stop. Failing to maintain speed, keep the lane, crossing the center line, failing to signal properly...I saw nothing.
Friend of mine who was an Arkansas sheriff's deputy, would regularly stop questionable looking folks saying that there had been a call regarding a stolen car that matched the vehicle they were driving........anything to get them stopped so he could find something to arrest them on.
and you considered him a "friend"? 
also, what exactly does it mean to dress down an officer?
Not a close friend.........and you considered him a "friend"?
I missed this earlier. Yes, that's the way it SHOULD work.
The way it actually works is that the government knows who I call, email, and text. They know, from my cell phone, where I drive everyday. They can figure out with a few keystrokes if I slept in last Sunday or not.
I can record video of a police officer doing his job, in public, and have a non-zero chance of getting arrested or assaulted. If I was a little...duskier...that non-zero chance skyrockets.
This is not a two-way street, is what I'm saying. Now, your local beat cop doesn't have access to all that information, but he's still got a hell of a lot more about me than I do about him.
With technology in small camera technology I foresee police required on person fish eye lenses and recorders. Keeping civilian tax collectors I mean police doing their job better then ever. Why some might ask well any hearsay is no dismissible and only what happened appears before a judge. This can hasten trials. They'll have a box small on their belt transmitting to a collar cam and mic. Starts recording in the beginning of their shift and ends when their gun is turned in. They cannot shut off their camera or have it covered with risk of demerit. What situation can this become a problem with police recording?
An interesting part of this story is that the racist profiling policy of the NYPD isn't the issue, the problem is that Team Blue didn't stick together here.
I'm shocked...
So Silver, in your opinion...who, if anyone, is it acceptable for the government to monitor? In the interest of public safety? Anyone?
It happens, and it isnt going away. Penalties for abuse and misuse should be harsh, that is for sure. But retreating from useful technology is not going to happen.
As long as someone videoing Cops does not interfere with Police procedures, I am good with it. There are procedural and tactical techniques that should, in the interest of occifer safety, not be video taped, but they are those that are commonly practiced and executed out of the public eye...

A good lawyer would shred him in while establishing probable cause...especially if it comes down to checking phone and /or disptch records if he caught someone genuinely dirty...
Wall Street.
Seriously though, that's all fine and dandy, until you get to secret courts part, the gag orders, the extra-judicial assassinations and kidnappings. You know, all the fun stuff that makes Russia a borderline terrorist nation and the US a bastion of freedom!
Penalties for abuse and misuse should be harsh. They aren't. They aren't even close. The head of the NSA just lied (under oath?), to Congress a month or two ago, didn't he. That's punishable by...nothing?

i wouldn't be dusky and walking my dog around a cop....if i still wanted the dog.
doughnut in distress call..
Yeah...the double standards are sickening. I really feel it is only a matter of time before our country implodes...
I have, I acknowledge, a very strange alignment regarding these things. I favor alot of it, but only when done within the rules. Problems arise when the ones who make the rules, willingly go around same. There has to be some overwatch on those who seek to overthrow our way of life...but it becomes too easy to abuse, and then we become no better than those who seek to overthrow us. Where does the line get drawn?
At "lawful neutral," I would say.

Backstory?
If that was my skateboard it would have gone through that ****ers teeth within a minute after my ass hit the pavement...
they arent telling the whole story but whatever it is, im sure the kid deserved to get by the car
having your kids name tattooed on yourself=gangster
and have some cop go spelunking in your anus....pass.
Most people dont get up after they have a skateboard shoved down their throat.
