BUT the footage will only revealed to show ICE'S favor

OR better yet, ABOLISH ICE

Okay but that didn't stop Renee Good and Alex Pretti, and what, 2 or 3 others now, from getting summarily executed. Like, Good's murderer was filmed from 5 angles. It's not an issue of evidence.

Not a word in the article about the ineffectiveness of body cameras in curbing law enforcement abuse, violence and brutality. @alexvitale.bsky.social @equalityalec.bsky.social

You know what would work even better? Breaking up ICE

ICE says? ICE says a lot of shit, mostly untrue.

🚩🚩🚩

Can we get access to Flock cameras so we can track them?

They’ll somehow ‘malfunction’ during incidents, and won’t be used at all inside detention centers and on deportation flights.

Dear NPR: I've supported you for literally decades. But something has gone terribly wrong. You need to take a good long look in the mirror. You're failing your mission.

Cameras won’t keep us safe, getting ICE off our streets will #abolishICE

How much of those were already caught on camera and what difference did it make?

Maybe a little but they’re still not going after the violent criminals and departing hard working people. And there’s no cameras in the concentration camps sooooo

Shameful. Murderers. Jabba is a setial killer.

So, more evidence of actual crimes committed for which they'll demand immunity anyway. Yeah... that'll really help. (Now they'll have a weekly highlights reel to show the troops over lunch.)

If no one can access the footage but ICE/DOJ (cannot subpoena nor view the unedited footage), and ICE is immune from prosecution anyway, the cameras are worthless. If you can shoot a woman in the face in front of the world, call her a bitch on camera and keep your job, why not give cameras to all?

If they would use them as instructed to do, they could do a lot of shit! Then we would know of their 'actions."

ICE literally executed people on camera

Ice agents are racist bigoted scum. They won’t properly use the cameras. They are kkk death cult soldiers.

Too bad they don’t turn them on when they’re raping and murdering.

Not being criminals and awful people could be another way to alleviate some concerns about ICE transparency and accountability, too.

Surprisingly they will not be working in cases of ICE atrocities. This is known as the law of Homan, the atrocious ghoul leading ICE.

lol no, npr reporter insanely out of touch, must be a day ending in y. Nobody who distrusts ice because of their abhorrent behavior is going to believe any body cam footage. It’s all going to be selective editing at best or totally fabricated.

Of course they could, but we know they have refused to use them or claim they haven't had sufficient instruction. That is just bullshit of course.

Or, you know, simply abolish them. You can't rehab this. You don't simply set up a camera to monitor a malignancy expect it to stop growing. You excise that shit. Cut the tumor from the body. Then scorch the vestiges out.

The only difference the cameras make is that they will take the time to turn them off. Possibly giving someone time to get to safety. Accountability later will come from everyday citizens recording ICE with their phones. The Hague should be involved for true accountability.

They are a terrorist organization. Need to be sent to jail.

This is just a little bit silly. ICE is above the law. DOJ is owned by Trump Inc and is not only going to never enforce body cams it will never prosecute the most heinous murders. To do so would totally undermine the whole point of the exercise which is to prove that we are under Fascist Rule.

We have to defund and dismantle ICE.

Exactly what I was thinking! When you announce this, you are saying you aren't serious about using the cams for the purpose intended. We all know by now that ICE doesn't want to use these cameras and will report what is revealed that serves their purposes. It's a joke!

This is total nonsense. The Feds have clearly said that there is no process for using these cameras to hold officers accountable. When there is a policy of total impunity, what difference does it make if there are cameras recording the behavior. We need to directly attack xenophobia.

How many deaths and violent assault have they hidden? Put nothing past them! & People will never be safe from this administration's version of immigration. Even when doing it the right way went wrong or many now their family and homes are destroyed. That is not the American way we were taught about.

But...

ICC also said they are not gonna turn most of them on, and will "lose" footage they dont like.

They have to be turned on too.

It's wonderful to have cameras now. Will they use them? Will they be turned on? Or will they conveniently turn them off when they feel like shooting or tasing someone to death.

body cameras don't reduce police violence, ICE or otherwise. The police control the edit on what gets released, can turn the cameras off at will, and refuse to release footage that doesn't reinforce their narrative. They are tools to be used against the people.

Are they turned on?

🤬💩

Those cameras will magically be turned off for civil violations
