Transparency is The Revolution

I usually don't care for John Stossel. He strikes me as pretty right wing in spite of calling himself a libertarian, and his exposes  have included such gems as revealing the truth about pro-wrestling- we had no idea!. That said, he seems to be a genuine civil libertarian in this case. Cell phones and recording devices along with social media have done more to expose and fight police brutality and tyranny then any concerted political movement has for a long time. A few things worth noting about this segment:1 The F.O.P.-The cop union is opposed to recording the police
                           2 Washington D.C. police department reflexively backed up their own officer, even though he illegally brandished a firearm in public; I'm sure you take great comfort in knowing that his violent felony got him suspended for 20 days  once revealed.
