    That’s not newsworthy on Lemmy, it won’t make people hateful and divide them like this story will.

      Police in my country don’t carry side arms which makes it far more difficult for them to murder people.

      Though, that kidnapping incident apparently involve a firearm, so the police responding were armed, and still no one died.

      Also, they tend to not get startled by noises, say like acorns falling, or if they do, don’t have a gun to fire in blind panic, and when they are armed, have the discipline to not empty the magazine like Rambo

      I think everyone here agrees. There is no devide. Buut if you say so we have to look at hundreds of hours of normal police body cam fotage now so we are allowed to criticize the government again.

        as long as body cams can be turned off (and as seen are sometimes intentionally) or “accidently” can be low on battery and turn off before the things happen that they were meant to record in the first place, then there is a problem with “normal body cam fotage” as then “normal” simply does not even exist.

        or said otherwise: what if you could record all your hundreds of visits to banks, then turn your body cam of, rob the bank and later get away with it, because you have footage showing / “prooving” that you were NOT a robber all the OTHER times ?

        Yes, Lemmy is an echochamber that spreads a lot of divisive propaganda… maybe worth asking yourself why
