Body cams for riot police

IG Boinett should introduce these gadgets ASAP and make it mandatory for any cop participating in anti-riot operations.

Bebefits will be two fold
a) lives will be saved. A cop with a body cam on will think long and hard before shooting to kill.
b)footage wil help cops justify alot of the fatal shootings in riots. Such as the station invasion in Kondele and the shooting of that kid that was allegedly out buying ice cream in KSM.

If we had footage showing the final seconds of the shot rioters, then we would be able to determine if the shooting was justified or not. We will be able to see with our own eyes if they were peaceful or not

We will not be having polititians claiming all dead rioters were peacefull and thus killed unjustly. This will save the police force alot of the bad press its has received of late. A win win for everyone concerned.

Cops do not need those as long as they dealing with intimidating hooligans. Its not only luos who support NASA. If the killings are targeting a particular community we won’t be having luos living in central Kenya then.
Hooligans should be dealt with accordingly.

First of, Good idea and I don’t support the killings…but to some extent I do… Pia those Police men ni binadamu…

But mi hujiuliza…why do this guys choose a wrong day kufanya some of what they say they do…???

Some guy in hosi alikuwa anasema alikuwa anakunywa soda kwa kiosk…hehehe… Nongwe ya mtu. Yaani a day when guys are rioting, pelting stones, cops retaliating with live bullets and tear gas… How on earth do you just sit there and enjoy your soda??

This, kid… Does he/she have guardians?? And they saw it wise to send the little one go get some ice cream such a messy day??

The class 8 kid nursing gun shot wounds… Does he have guardians…?? Why would such a kid be out at such a day…??

Ata wameniuthi… Wakule ujeuri wao…

Huko Bungoma mwingine alikua anakula sembe lanj akafumaniwa. Shot to death

Mwingine alikuwa ameenda kununua ice cream.

Good idea but you are ahead of your time. Give it another 20 years or so.

Wanted to give you a like but hii upusu umeandika makes no sense at all. Kwani if there is riots watu hawafai kusosi, hio iko kwa page gani ya constitushen?

Likes aside na tuongee hapa ka two…wharever wharever Men…

Wewe kama kush uko na kijana ako Class 8,the kuna riots nje… Unaeza acha huyo mtoto atoke nje ata na dawa…?? Kumbuka ata si unga ya ugali anaenda kubuy ama skuma, ni ice cream… Unless if you are a careless guardian… I would rather ntoke nkamtafutie if lazima akule kuliko yeye aende… That’s one…

Two, wewe kama kush, na hiyo kupenda kula yako, unaona kuna riots nje na ni serious… Uta risk kwenda kutafta soda kunywa?? Haya ume risk nini itafanya uketi kwa kiosk nje ukikunywa na watu wanakimbia kando yako wakirushiana mawe na polisi??? Again labda ka hujipendi ama wewe ni Lucas cage… If you’ve ever watched that movie…

Hadi ile siku itakifanyikia au ifanyikie your close relative ndio utaelewa…

collateral damage ni nini

Painful but again I know this the easiest way to make somebody feel guilt on their stand and at least empathise with the situation… Sawa,i don’t condone this nonsense at all… Best believe… But here’s the thing…

At such a time a responsible guardian, a responsible friend what are some of the precautions you take towards your loved ones and friends…??

Like me every now and then nashow my friends to watch and first get to know of any route they’ll be taking either to or from where they are…

Family; young ones you monitoring every move and anywhere they want to go lazima wawe accompanied by an adult… Story ya kucheza nje especially if the surrounding is not safe hakuna… Wakae kwa nyumba…anyhow. this something we can talk and go back and forth till cows come home… But they always say… It’s better safe than sorry…

And lastly… PRAY for yourself, your people, friends and the Nation… OK??

Most probably the guardians were among the rioters, how do you explain a 65year old man with 9 kids(mostly probably adults) rioting in the streets only to be run down by a car.

With all that rioting and teargas etc, a kiosk was open and selling sodas…

I know that I’ve talked from my point of view coz Leo nimepoteza a neighbor, an old man, ju ya police brutality.

He was on a boda going to market when a running battle ensued from nowhere. Aliwekelewa rungu ya kichwa, na hivyo ndio amepack. Hakuwa kwa riot hata…

Anyway it is just prayers, you never know. Unaeza kuwa kwa hao stray bullet ikupate pia

Those collateral damages are a result of a stirred hornet’s nest.

Yes all are always innocent, police bullet zigzag and hit them in their houses while cooking ugali. Other police leave protesters and go into their house be shoot them.

Pole sana may God grant him eternal rest… Sad:(:(…

The media will tell us ‘busineness remained closed’ and on the same vein tell us somebody was out to buy ice cream. Alikua anunue wapi kama maduka zimefungwa?

The one who shocked me was a pregnant lady who miscarried after fainting due to tear gas inhalation.
She said she was in her house and heard some fracas outside, so she went to find out what was happening. I was left wondering whether she had just landed from North Korea without a clue of what’s happening.
I’ve never once heard anyone who was participating in the riot get shot. They are all usually doing something else, like returning from the hospital or buying ice cream. Tuwache kupimana ujinga.
Let us first admit they were rioting, and then we can discuss police brutality from that point.

Victims. Innocent victims. The shops are looting themselves. Ghosts are stoning the police. Those that voted are being lynched by the devil. Roads are barricaded by the rain.
