if cops werent doing anything wrong they wouldnt mind being filmed!
That main difference being, the public aren't in a position of authority. The police are held to a higher level of authority, they have to lead by example. But time and time and time again, they abuse these powers. Now we have something to fight this with, they don't like it. Their little game of "screw you, I'm a cop and i can do what I like" is dying on its arse. And it is due to us, the people, being vigilant in filming every single interaction with the police.

That's funny you say that. I've made that argument myself...not only about this but about other things.
Interesting though the same people who will make that statement will say its a friggin travesty to have police or government film "them"....even if they aren't doing anything wrong.
It should go both ways.

In a mature society, “civil servant” is semantically equal to “civil master.”

Kudos to Stossel, everyone should watch Stossel and give him ratings, he's frikkin Awesome!
He always has amazing shows
This video needs to be seen by everyone, of course an armed officer should always be videotaped
It has always shown to help ENFORCE the law
Officers not feeling comfortable or safe while being filmed should simply find another profession
It's that simple!

I think every single police officer out on the street should be required to wear a headcam with audio and every second they are on duty recorded.
