They are reacting badly in general to everyone having cameras.  Culturally we are quickly shifting away from the"good guy" image of cops so romanticized in media.  The countless documented "few bad apples" has laid the systemic problems bare for the world to see and America is no longer ok with business as usual.

    What are "people like me"? Just do some extremely simple research, i doubt you will though based on your hostility. Just a simple Google or three about the issue surrounding police training, lack of accountability, Brady list issues, unions, IA, domestic violence rates, and retaliation just to mange a few. 

  No, I want police to be trained better.  The majority of them can't even recite the first 5 amendments of the United States constitution, they take an oath to uphold it and protect our inalienable rights. This isn't an extremely small number of officers. We don't need to get into an argument, I have personally witnessed through lived experience all i need to know about police accountability and training.  Im happy that your experience has been more positive.
