President Obama’s proposed $263 million “fix” for police includes funding for officers to wear body cameras.
@TheRickWilson had questions about how that would (or wouldn’t) work:
Will the video from police body cameras be covered under freedom of information/sunshine laws?

The cameras run constantly, or just during interactions with citizens?

Maybe there’s a better place to start:
.@TheRickWilson I think we need cameras on politicians instead.

Ding! Ding! We have a winner!
@hleecar "All legislators must operate a webcam (with audio) in every office…" Heads. Explode.

There’s some transparency we could finally believe in! In other words, it’ll never happen.
