The police have created an environment where the people on the street know they are going to come in with overwhelming force.

The police have created an environment where everyone fears any interaction with the police because if the officer is scared they can and will kill you.

With no consequences for the police.

The police turn on the cameras and expect people to suddenly forget the above. Wont happen.

Paybacks on the police will be taken by certain individuals if they are given a chance.

Frankly all public servants should be required to have a camera running at all times when they are working. If a cop is carrying his weapon he isn't off duty and should have his camera running.

Fine, but be prepared for the first-person video of me taking a piss in some conveniently placed foliage because I'm on a mail route with no bathrooms.

well... im assuming you are more showered than the homeless bum i have to walk around pissing on market street most mornings ?
It would be a HIPAA/data retention nightmare for certain classes of public servants (namely public EMS services)
