It's great the police are wearing bodycams, now there'll be far less controversy...

What is wrong with these police-hating detestable thugs who are on the side of violence and criminality?

St. Paul, MN – Protesters and social justice warriors are demanding “justice” for a suspect who crashed into the back of a patrol vehicle and attacked the lone officer with a knife (video below).

St. Paul Police Officer Steven Mattson was patrolling in the Hamline-Midway neighborhood at approximately 6 p.m. on Sept. 15, when a vehicle suddenly ran into the back of his, MPR reported.

Bodycam footage showed Officer Mattson as he got out of the patrol car to speak with the other driver, who was later identified as 31-year-old Ronald Davis.

But by the time he got himself out of his patrol vehicle, Officer Mattson was already under attack with essentially no time to react.

Davis ran over to the officer with a knife raised above his head, just as the officer realized what was occurring, the video showed.

Davis was later pronounced dead at the scene, MPR reported.

Protesters immediately began staging demonstrations after the fatal altercation, alleging that Davis wasn’t a threat to the officer and that he had been racially profiled, KARE reported.

Others claimed that police were lying about Davis being armed with a knife.

One Facebook event page, “Justice for Ronald Davis Protest and Vigil,” referred to Davis as “the most recent victim” of St. Paul police.

The event, which was hosted by anti-police groups including Black Lives Matter Twin Cities Metro, Communities United Against Police Brutality, and the Racial Justice Network, accused police of “planting evidence, falsifying reports, re-recording audio, destroying evidence, intimidating witnesses and family members, as well as controlling the narrative.”

Approximately 60 protesters gathered on Sunday to march from the St. Paul Police Department’s (SPPD) Western District to the location where the officer-involved shooting occurred less than a mile away, KARE reported.

“We already know we don’t trust them!” one speaker said of the local police force.

Some carried Black Lives Matter signs, while others waived “Justice for Ronald Davis” posters, the Star Tribune reported.

“It’s disgusting that the people who are supposed to protect us are out here killing us,” railed Davis’ friend, Abdul, according to Fight Back News. “When I heard the news, I was shocked because he was a very respectful, kind person. He would say, ‘Yes, sir, yes, ma’am. He wasn’t an aggressive person, even though he was big.”

Legalize it.

Notice that they listed "controlling the narrative" on the list of the police department's sins. That's because they know that's such an important thing in matters of social justice, which are largely narrative driven. They are used to being in charge of the narrative and don't like it one bit when the "other side" tries to take that advantage away from them.

That’s a good catch.
Somewhere along the way “controlling the narrative” became more important than “telling the truth”. Now that the bodycams allow them to do neither they’ll have to learn a new way to attack the police.
At least this time they’re doing it with absolute rock-solid evidence that they’re totally full of it and are making false accusations.
And for that we thank you....

Leftists support assaulting police, violence and lawlessness. What else are supposed to think?

BAM! There is it is!

Leftist trash do what they complain others do: assume someone is wrong and evil just because of who they are. So when they hear a cop shoots someone, the cop is automatically wrong. The actual facts don't even matter.

So yeah, when the cops control the narrative with actual facts and video, they're upset.

Some people abhor LE in and of itself. It doesn’t matter what the circumstances are and why.

I don't understand why cops have body cams but laws are being passed that witnesses can not record cops on their phones. You would think the more truth the better.

It’s another of those destroyed lefty myths some still cling to:
a) no one really hates the cops
b) Blacks can’t be racists
c) environmentalists aren’t anti-capitalism
d) only right-wingers are pedophiles

I’m not aware of any jurisdiction that has banned recording the police.
Care to assist with that?

Any such law should be ruled unconstitutional. As it stands now, it is effectively legal to record police in all but 2 states. But as the link states, that doesn't mean cops won't try to come up with a reason why you can't record them, like you're *interfering* or some other jive.

It appears the only two states who are insistent about not recording are... SHOCKER.. two blue states:

"Twelve states—California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington—require the consent of all parties for you to record a conversation.

"However, all but 2 of these states—Massachusetts and Illinois—have an "expectation of privacy "provision" to their all-party laws that courts have ruled does not apply to on-duty police (or anyone in public). In other words, it's technically legal in those 48 states to openly record on-duty police."

I'd like to but I heard it a while back somewhere and don't feel like digging for it right now.
I found an Illinois governor tried it in 2014 but it failed to pass. Such motions have been struck down in courts of law.

I know of no place- thankfully- that bans public scrutiny of street or traffic stops.

The expectation of privacy for police would not extend to areas the public accesses- streets, stores, highways and such.
I’m not sure about Mass, but Illinois does allow one-party recording in public except in situations of “administrative searches” which are intended to benefit suspects’ privacy.

the nut job brought a knife to a gunfight, stupidity will kill you every time. Glad the cop is ok, too bad he had to waste a perfectly good bullet on a dirt bag dingbat.

The existence of these massive protests by witnesses and those they spoke to proves that the police narrative is a lie concocted to cover up the murder.
