Wow. I agree that bad police need to be held accountable, but this started looking like an Obamacare analog just pondering the logistics.

Remember when people got arrested or their phones/cameras confiscated simply for recording police? That's something worth petitioning against, not this ill-conceived "solution" which ignores both logistics and the law of unintended consequences.

I honestly think this is a good idea I mean they are trying it with the San Diego police and its working out there

The only problem I can see is that it puts the individual officer in control of the recording device. "Oops, my lapel obscured the camera." "Oops, the mic got disconnected."

Sounds to me like the solution to that is to keep recording on your own anyway. This way, there is two video sources, and it means no one can lie about the situation.

Last I knew, it had something to do with buildings. You can ask Jeffery Tucker about that one.

The Department of Labor has this laughably baffling bullshit up about Minimum Wage.

Here's a thing of note. They don't cite a single source for anything, despite claiming all these studies and academic papers. You know something's bullshit when they stay nice and vague.
