All police officers should be forced to wear a camera and microphone at all times. These devices should be sealed with no on or off button. Green light means on, no light means off. They should have to pick this camera up at the beginning of their shift, and return them at the end of their shift. These devices will then have the data transfered by an authorized person, that is audited frequently. Any signs of tampering, or a failure of the officer to return and have a not operational camera replaced should result in immediate dismissal. The data should be shared with any defendants immediately. Failure to supply video of the arrest should result in a dismissal of charges against the accused.
And unless you were already a suspect you wouldn't be on the match database anyway.
My contention is you are in the match database, and even if the current system cannot handle real time facial recognition, what makes you think it will not be able to accomplish that in a few short years.
Ohh and this is not security theater, it is an attempt to trample rights. Security theater is the TSA, where even they dont intend to catch anyone.
You get to do what you want?
You get to treat others however you want huh? Throw those rules of impartiality out, and just beat up on anyone you don't like?
Ohh and you are still dead flipping wrong. He lied, he edited the video, and no attorney generals found any evidence of any wrong doing on Acorns part.In fact from what I read, at least one of them suggested that he may be liable for damages
A few choice quotes for you:
On March 1, 2010, the District Attorney's office for Brooklyn determined that the videos were "heavily edited" to give a misleading impression,[7] and concluded that there was no criminal wrongdoing by the ACORN Brooklyn staff filmed in the videos.[8] A law enforcement source said, "They edited the tape to meet their agenda."[9][107]
The California Attorney General granted immunity to O'Keefe and Giles in exchange for their raw videos shot at three California ACORN offices. Its comparison of the raw videos with the released versions found that the published videos had been heavily edited to misrepresent the workers and the situations so as to suggest criminal intent and activity.[10][11][12][13] The California report was followed by one by the U.S. Government Accountability Office, which reported there was no evidence that ACORN workers had misused government funds or participated in the criminal activities represented in the videos.[14][15] But, ACORN was effectively destroyed by then.[16]
Look he even had to settle out of court in at least one instance.
On March 5, 2013, O'Keefe agreed to pay the fired employee, Juan Carlos Vera, $100,000. O'Keefe acknowledged in the settlement that at the time he published his video he was unaware that Vera had, in fact, notified the police about the incident. Further, the settlement contains the following apology: "O'Keefe regrets any pain suffered by Mr. Vera or his family."[21]
Mark said what size device he wanted. something the size of the S3. The iPad mini is no where near the size of the S3. Why would you think that would be an acceptable alternative?
Well Just a FYI. the word steward (root of stewardess) is French. Romance languages (including French, Spanish, and Italian among others) Have gender specific words.
For example everyone knows there is a difference between mi amigo and mi amiga.
Would you call someone who used the term mi amiga sexist? Should we really get bent out of shape over a word that was borrowed from another language?
Perhaps a French (or other romance language) speaker could clue us in on how they refer to the flight staff in charge of maintaining order and serving sodas.
I honestly do not think that when I hear the word stewardess. I think of them as the people who keep the plane from turning into a zoo. I actually hold a lot of respect for them considering what I think of large groups in confined spaces. They keep the peace.
Maybe that is just me, but I have not seen anyone using that word in a demeaning way.
I do not see how that word is demeaning, unless you do something silly and apply it to the males. Those are stewards.
Who exactly gets to decide a word is demeaning? DO I get to decide that calling me the IT guy is demeaning. I should make everyone refer to me by title. Network Analyst.
I didn't say troll at all in my post. I asked why you would let that bother you. Its like when people get cranky at me for calling a motherboard a motherboard. Exactly what is derogatory about using the word stewardess?
Honestly I really do not understand why you would let that bother you. If the word was used correctly, it was, and the word is not in and of it self offensive, it is not. What is the big deal?
Statistically there are more females then males in that job field.
Why do you have to point it out? I truly don't understand why that would stick in anyones craw.
I think you only heard one side of the story. You neglect the fact that those answers were spliced together, from different days, and dressed differently. You also neglect that on at least one occasion Acorn called the police after those two left.
You should not have been modded up. You are incorrect.
I get an hour for lunch. I may spend the entire lunch doing what ever I choose. Or I can eat at my desk and field calls for that hour, and I am allowed to leave 30 minutes early. Well on some days, unless things are running late, or I am the last one here and we need coverage till 5:30, or a million other things that could keep me here late. Lotsa ways to throw a wrench in the leave early plan.
Because they do the marathon with 70 pounds on their backs. In fact many in the military will use marathons as training to get up to speed with the real long range movements they have to do in war zones. This is especially true with Special Ops.

Your drivers license photo is in that database. Keep up here. That is well known and was publicized during the Boston incident.
Doing the same thing, but getting a different punishment based upon who she was.
You don't see how that is unfair?
You get to do what you want?

I hope you end up in prison.
Wow proof read fail on my part.
Just another troll. Someone saw the success that APK has had and decided to get into the annoyance game.

If the worst we ever get from Canada are the Hideki comments, well I am not that bent outta shape.
Some people have a pro male bias, and some people have a pro female bias, and some of us don't really care.

Did you miss the "middle school" portion of the summary?
This needs to be more like Reddit
Bite your tongue!
It looks like it will be 20V at 5A
Wow you are trying hard to make this a conspiracy
You are parsing it to get the definition you want.

who needs more that 6 qts "capacity" of a pressure cooker? We need legislation to limit pressure cooker capacity, and of course, mandated training.
You know the sad part is, you must really think your clever. Its like a right wing talking meme.
Yo dawg I heard you hate regulation, so i deregulated the deregulation.
