    The Las Vegas Police all have body cameras. This is the officer holding a gun to Michael's head. The officer says he forgot to turn his on.https://twitter.com/mosesbread72/status/905602687315488768 …

        Any officer who does not have their body cam on should get an automatic 3-month no pay suspension. 2nd offense...termination.

        Sir, you read my mind - and it should be a policy they can not challenge.

        If it is trained policy & procedure, and also protects citizens and police, it must be done. Only way to enforce it to protect all

        New rule: anytime a cop forgets to turn on camera. 6 month unpaid suspension.

        How many times are we going to hear that they conveniently "forgot" to turn their body camera on smh

        Simple solution would be requiring an officer's pay status be equal to his camera status when suspended for an investigation.

        Like it. Like it a lot. Also, why aren't the cameras on automatically when gun is upholstered? Not hard to do, technically speaking.

        Real talk, we've all seen camera footage showing criminal conduct by law enforcement ... yet they still get not guilty

        Alleged misconduct. Who are you going to believe, this American Hero, or your own lying eyes?

        A automatic 30-day suspension every time they "forget" would probably help a lot of them remember to turn their body cams on.

        Why don't we start automatically terminating employment for cops who "forget" to turn on body cams and dashboard cams. Unacceptable.

        Still waiting for there to be repercussions for "forgetting."
