James Comey, the director of the FBI, sparked fireworks among Obama administration officials when he said police around the nation are hesitating to get out of their cars because of the prevalence of cell-phone cameras being held by youthful bystanders and activists.
“Officers are answering 9-1-1 calls,” Comey said, in remarks broadcast on Fox News, “but [they’re] avoiding the informal contact that keeps bad guys from standing around, especially with guns.”
Comey said informal conversations with police have led him to conclude law enforcement is “under siege” by those who see the system as unfair and discriminatory toward minorities.
“I spoke to officers privately in one big city precinct who described being surrounded by young peole with mobile phones held high, taunting them when they get out of their cars,” Comey said. “They said to me, ‘We feel under siege [and] we don’t feel much like getting out of our cars.’”
