Would #Ferguson Have Turned Out Differently If The Original Cop Incident Had Been Recorded?
This clip was made over two years ago, but it’s still so very relevant today, and it’s happening even more as police departments become more militarized and out-of-touch with the citizens they’re supposed to protect.

These are not rare incidents, especially for those in some communities.Warning: gun violence and physical abuse.

Remember, you have a right to record these interactions, if these following are true:
1. It’s on public property.
2. They’re on-duty cops.
3. You do not interfere with the police operation.
And it needs to be said that you should do it openly and not in secret, though some secret videos have been admissible in court.
