Well it's not clear that it was done with publics mo
OK, here's how I see this.
Videoblogging is about self-expression and removing intermediaries.
In this case the police officers are expressing themselves in video.
The made the video for themselves only. So the intermediaries are the

There's the right to have a personal view and express it as an
individual whether it's congruent with the corporate/governmental
entity one works for or not.

Here are some of the issues I think are overlooked in the police video scandal:
The district the videos were made in is the Bayview, a mostly black community,
with one of
the highest homicide rates in the city, and the highest in 10 years. The videos
were made
during company time with public r
According to the last segment, only a few of the videos produced and for
which they are in trouble for, are shown there. While the clips shown
are pretty tame and possibly harmless, I would say they are
inappropriate if one is expected to take cops seriously. Do you laugh
when they draw their
I don't know what SNL has to do with this, but my point is that police
expect to be taken seriously when they deal with you. They also happen
to wield a lot more power than regular folks and should probably govern
themselves accordingly.
Having said that, I did find the police chief's 'over're

baloney!
first, i suspect many police would say they love their job (shitty or not)
also, the pay may be better than you might think
SFPD salaries appear to be in the $45K-$110K range and with better
benefits than many other jobs
there are much, much worse paying jobs here in occupied Mexico (m

Yes a person has a right to express his views. However a person needs
to respect the stance of his employers. E.g. A hospital takes an
anti-abortion stance while some of its employees are pro-choice. It's

problem until they s
