Someone needs to come up with a convenient way for that helmet cam (for example) to transmit the entire recording to a second unit ‘on the fly’. Maybe a second bike. Or a HD back at home. That way the copy is preserved, out of the reach of hoodlums.
I realize that this guy had every reason to expect to be left alone, certainly from the LEO, but we’ve passed the point in the last few years where these roving gangs driving police cars and operating under the color of law are our friends. They have chosen to become our enemies.
I think my tagline fits the situation.
Yeah, I'm amazed at my change of opinion on cops. Before, say, 2000, I was an admirer. Now, I expect trouble whenever I encounter one (which, thankfully, is very rare.)
It's to the point that when my neighbor's kid told me last year that he intends to become a state trooper, I couldn't help but think he must be psychologically-disturbed.
We're in a bad way with this nazi-wannabe-cop thing.
