    Oh wow that’s a whole new kind of awful I didn’t know about. Blocking their dash cam with their hood?

      Well I know I’m officially on the Reddit alternative when I see a repost from 6 years ago. Body worn cameras have become pretty much standard and dash cameras are of much less benefit once the vehicle is stopped. Yes, putting the hood up to block the camera is obviously suspicious but this is a very old post. It’s time to move on to tactics. Used to skew the angle of the bodyboard camera.

        Ah I see, so it’s not a new tactic, it’s a very old one.

        If your position is that all cops are always good, I pity you. So let’s assume you think bad cops are rare. Statistically wrong, but whatever, let’s roll with it. Let’s learn how to spot the bad ones.

      And if they try to stop you, let them arrest you but disable your device before they can access it. Then find the local ACLU and return the trouble to the cops

        They just smash phones the majority of the time. Unless you’ll be able to automatically update your photo/video to the cloud.

    It’s sad to see how badly the police need more funding, their vehicles braking down en masse like that!

          At whose expense?

          Also, trust in the police is at an all-time low, especially among young liberal-leaning Americans.

            You’re not the only one to miss my attempt at humor. I suspect I have used a format from Reddit that might be obscure in other parts of the online world. I make a statement and pretend like it’s a quote from a group or individual I actually disagree with. I am not advocating for police funding, I suggested that the image might elicit such a response from naive liberals.

                LSC on Reddit was quite active, so it might have name recognition. Thanks for the heads up!

      Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !acab@lemmygrad.ml

        Umm, aktually, your phone is digital, my good sir, which means that technically, there is no “film” inside with which to film, only my favorite directors like Judd Apatow use real film 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓

            Call it whatever you want, just don’t leave a comment correcting someone else who also used a valid term.
