MikeBlueHair has been on the ground in Ferguson, MO documenting a situation that started, and as he and many others are making clear through the lens of their camera, continues to exemplify double standards claimed by those wearing badges.

Case in point, this video, which  out this video, which he uploaded a few days ago:

MikeBlueHair, one of the founders of Film The Police Portland (website / YouTube), felt compelled to journey to Missouri, recently shared this update:

I’m here in Ferguson right now! I’m still working on limited funds! Help out if you can! I’m a cop watcher its my passion! I have a freeken outrage on and feel compelled to bring my live stream gear and cameras down to Ferguson. during the past year I have filmed and edited more than 180 police interactions with the public! So, I have the skills to bring some much needed accountability to the way the media is spinning this story! I can’t just sit back and do nothing. Im willing to put my life on the line by going into the middle of this chaos. I just need some cash to get me there and back home safely! I’ll do as much video content as I can and twitter post as humanly possible. thanx

Become more familiar with MikeBlueHair and his efforts, and if you have the ability and interest, share some love via his GoFundMe campaign.
