Maybe now some of these police organizations will stop all the hand clapping when OUR rights are taken...

Sen. Eric Adams, a Brooklyn Democrat, is drumming up support for the cameras that would cost $695 each. He said New York would be the first to mandate the cameras.
The camera would follow the gun barrel's movement and include a laser pointer and a light.
The camera and lights would start just over a second after a handgun is pulled from a holster. A police officer could turn off the lights, but the camera and optional audio recording would continue.
The New York City Patrolmen's Benevolent Association had no immediate comment.
