Ok, so there are things that shouldn't be released to the public, even though they might be the rare exceptions.

Most likely, they'd also have to blur out video involving minors or when there might be a HEPA issue.

Like I said, I don't like NC's law and feel we need more transparency.

I believed I noted that where minors are involved there could be valid reasons to hide their identity when we discussed the North Carolina law.

That doesn't mean it shouldn't be available to the public. Available but blurred where necessary.

Besides, it's impossible for a cop to kill anyone. It's just as likely if a bear comes out of the forest and attacks them!

I don't think so. I think he should have said the word " some " rather than " most" but other than that, I think it was a fair statement.

The other day when I told a police officer that a man had threatened me, he shrugged and said " ma'am, people threaten us every day. " Yeah. Well, you have a gun and a badge and outweigh me by a hundred pounds. Thanks for nothing.

Each police force, and each cop is different. Some are great. Some are terrible. We shall see what happened here. No matter what though, the cop will walk. That's how the system works.

"They should've deescalated and been trained to realize that this is an entirely different situation," Barringer told NBC affiliate WCNC. "You're pulling someone over who is deaf. They are handicapped."





So Sad. Apparently there was a small chase, but it is unknown if he was just deaf and did not notice. The police ar not releasing the information at the moment....

I beginning to believe, cops need to literal get into a fist fight before they can shoot someone, they should actually have to be attack. today society if you look at a cops in the eyes, there a 90% chance you going get shot.

just because someone doesnt follow a cops order is not right to kill them. The cops needs to be charge, at least mmanslaughter

Well, I've seen the "gang signing" phobia taken to extremes. My son and two of his friends were hauled into the office, and the police called, for "gang signing". They were in the third grade, and were playing Spiderman, shooting webs with their hands. Needless to say, we parents were quite disgusted, and to his credit, so was the cop.

But, it does go to show that the paranoia you jokingly referenced, does, indeed, exist. The possibility that a cop might actually see things in that light is, frankly, quite possible...and spooky.
