Camera for Cops
Recently throughout the country, Police departments have been requiring all on duty officers to wear a camera on their person, in efforts to reduce abuse of power and police brutality. I feel that this is a huge step in regaining the privacy and protecting the rights of citizens. There would be no more question of "who did what" or questionable acts on the police departments behalf.
I suggest that CPD follow suit and get on person camera for every officer.
Yes, our town is nice, and most of the officers are actual officers and not just hot heads with a badge and a vendetta. However, our town's law enforcement does have many officers with this mentality. This needs to change.
There have been too many questionable stops and invasions of privacy simply because they "think they are mightier than thou".
Camera for Cops is what i am positing, and I hope many of the people reading this will agree.
