I don't disagree about needing law enforcement and yeah, the public is often behaving poorly, but I think the transparency of bodycams are a benefit to society. I think the lack of transparency leads (or worse, masking of law enforcement) inevitably leads to infringement on rights and lawlessness. Just my opinion, of course!

The only people who really wanted to defund the police are the ones who don’t ever have experiences with them because they live in gated and upper class neighborhoods. I say more cameras for police—it’s not so much about “exposing” them, but protecting them from claims that most of the time are totally untrue. (And when they are true, we want a record.)
