Continue to place your faith in the state brehs![]()

The bill was passed by both the State House and Senate, and sent to Illinois Governor Pat Quinn on Dec. 4. It would criminalize secretly recording “private conversations” between two or more people, where at least one had a “reasonable expectation” of privacy. However, the proposed law would likely not make it illegal to record police interactions in public. Recordings like those depicting the death of Eric Garner would therefore not be affected. The new bill attempts to protect people from surreptitious and improper recording of their conversations without infringing on free-speech rights, its sponsors claim.

We'll see.ACLU feels differently... guess we'll see how it plays out.We'll see.
Body cams and private(contracted) law enforcement is the way to go IMHO.
no it's not
how has this worked for the banking sector
how has this worked for environmental protection
lol yes - fine the private corporation! How many times must we write this storybook ending:
- drawn out litigation. the feds don't want to divert additional money or resources. Corporation enters into agreement with the feds to pay a reduced lumped sum payment with the stipulation that the corporation doesn't have to admit guilt.
- corporation passes on cost of litigation and fine payment to consumers

Body cams and private(contracted) law enforcement is the way to go IMHO.

Wouldnt be any different then what we have now...Except private police forces wouldnt get to investigate themselves and find they did nothing wrong
I think people just see "privatize" and get shook for no reason.![]()
You believe there is an option that doesn't involve cacs?So you're saying we should swap out one group of cacs for another![]()

Please share...
We have a state monopoly on law enforcement, that oversees itself, receives guaranteed funding, and is in no danger of being replaced. I doubt anyone believes that this is a scenario for accountability.
I think it's best if I just fall back and wait, the police will continue to build a strong case for me.![]()

Seems counter to their agenda.
