So How's About More Stupidity Coming From The NYPD...

New York Department Considers PistolCam

NEWBURGH, N.Y.--" In a city where the street version of events is often worlds apart from the police version, a new technology might help bridge the gap.

Yesterday, city officials showed off the PistolCam, a lightweight, pager-sized digital camera that attaches to an officer's gun barrel and automatically begins recording as soon as the officer draws his weapon.

Newburgh is looking to become the first police force in the country to use the new cameras, and police and city officials hope it can help cool relations between police and residents. Tensions here have been raised by several high-profile incidents, including a shoot-out between city police and 23-year-old Antonio Bryant, which left Bryant dead in the middle of Broadway last year.

"The interaction between police and residents is a top priority," said Mayor Nick Valentine. "We think you can do a lot with technology."
