Honestly, I'm tired of people thinking that government agents wearing body cams is going to protect them. It protects the government. THEY control the footage. They store it. You have to pull teeth to try to get a copy, if you ever see it all. Why do u think police wearing body cams get mad as hell when YOU try to record THEM? Body cams are not for your protection. YOUR camera is for your protection (that's why they want to take it from you.)

Well when you have a president that defunds anything that resembles accountability that's what you get.

We need a hacker or an activist in meta to release the ample body cam footage of them violating the many laws they trample daily.

We could have had health care reform. We could have paid off student loan debt. We could have had free lunch for kids everywhere and fun extracurricular activities for children.

I'm tired of people appealing to the law

Agents prefer these glasses so they can also record their coworkers without them knowing. They are going to need that footage for a good plea bargain when the trials start! 😂

STOP this madness, were talking about body cameras, and not the abolition of this paramilitary
@nancy.stpaul♥ 12026-03-18
So, how secure is that footage?
@kofuzi♥ 12026-03-18
It can only record 2.5minute clips at a time. (Or that’s what it was last I checked)

IR/black light will interfere with them
