I have to say, I'm going to enjoy this list (much like I enjoy my own,
when its active)...

On this thread, I don't get it. We've had videos of police played
publicly, internationally even, for years now - how is this different?

In fact, I just watched a show on video vigilantes and a cop was
quoted as saying he likes the idea of private persons taping arrests -
that it keeps us all in check. Go figure...
