What is amazing to me is that they *can* use the stingray device on an entire city, but they don't seem to be able to use them around JAILS. You know jails where the inmates aren't supposed to have cell phones but do... and the DoC files for an exception from the FCC and is told they can't install cell phone jammers. Meanwhile the inmates arrange for hits against guards they don't like. http://www.wistv.com/story/131...

You still need a human on board to control the unruly drunks who puke on public transit, the druggie who takes over a bus with a knife or the schizophrenic who hacks off another passenger's head, or to drive the school bus to the police station when kids get out of control.

Thanks for the well thought reply.

Obviously I don't know what your skin color is, and I can't presume to know what this particular police officer was thinking when he shot the man in this video. However, he was fired and is currently out on bond for this shooting. Interestingly, he was just arrested again yesterday for shoplifting. The point is that these types of senseless shootings by police are very much reality if you happen to be black or Latino in the U.S. I'm not going to cite a source on that because I think that you should take a look and discover the information for yourself.

Being afraid to go "downtown" after dark is one thing. It's still your prerogative and it's based on personal experience. I've been mugged, so I understand. Being afraid that a cop is going to shoot you and/or arrest you during a routine traffic stop because of your skin color is another thing entirely, and it's the reason people want more cameras pointed at the police.

Yes, because an unarmed black man running *away* from you is an immediate threat requiring discharge of 8 rounds in the back

The forensic evidence showed that Brown was facing the officer when he was shot, not that he was running away. The only question is how far away he was when the shots were fired.

Not the only one. Because another question is why you're confusing a clear reference to Walter Scott with a reference to Michael Brown.

The foresic evidence showed that Scott was facing away from the officer when he was shot. The video showed that he was running away.

Try again.

LOL. ROFL. I just find ppl like you amazing
No doubt that you are a neo-cons that backs reagan and W.

While I'd love to see something that would prevent *drivers* from making calls, I don't like the idea of preventing all calls from cars.

I'll bet this lady doesn't, either: http://www.wistv.com/Global/story.asp?S=13477433

... very small, low-power devices that can route messages between each other until they find the target device ...

I can just see a trojan buried deep inside the ketchup dispenser next to the cash register at the McDonalds ("Now accepting credit cards!").
