The cop who shot Oscar Grant was prosecuted and it probably would not have happened if it weren't for the video.
It baffles me that people are even making the claim "what is the point of body cameras". Well the point of the body cameras is so that the policed can police the police.
I definitely think they should have to wear them. I'm just not so sure that anything will actually change. Call it a lack of faith...
The police in this country are not so powerful that we can't force change on their behavior if we don't like it.
