There is something beautiful in old times which is not in modern times!!! it's hard to describe by words.

[@Snitram19]

That's called nostalgia

People had personally anyone could but a main character now everyone has anxiety and depression

@funkerL where is this footage from, I'm doing a documentary about the 70s in Chicago - great stuff. Would appreciate it a lot.

[@paulhewitt921]

Do you own the rights to this video? I'd like to ask to use 2 seconds of it in a short video project. Than you.

[@jtonythejett1]

What siren was that at the very beginning? was it speed activated? seems the faster the car went the faster the siren wailed?

[@bennymashfilms]

Do you own the rights to this footage or if not know who does?

[@FunkerL]

The original video is called "The Battered Badge" from 1982. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f56blItrpdykZq8

[@FCVP71]

Can you imagine these old-school cops walking up to check on a suspicious person who turns around with a phone in hand, berating and provoking them, and then threatening them that everyone will see them on social media by the end of the night and they will lose their jobs? I wonder how they would react...

[@filmmakerjohnb]

what is the name of this? where is it from?

[@ayoochitown4438]

It’s called “Beyond The Badge” and it was a channel 7 documentary released in 1982.

Federal signal

[@mariodario1427]

@@BlackieFoxxless no shit it's federal signal, I was looking forward to know which model exactly

[@mackenziedelorge3175]

For Chicago it was actually a mars clarion siren system

[@MakeMyDayPunk1992]

7:30 why were they practicing with semi-automatic while on duty, Police used to carry revolvers?

[@BrandonSoto92010]

Because the ISP was one of the first police departments to start issuing 9mm pistols. Also this is training, they are not on duty.

[@MakeMyDayPunk1992]

@@BrandonSoto92010 Yes, I have read that Illinois State Police issued 9mm pistols, S&W model 59 if I'm correct. But I saw some other clips on YT where other Police departments were training with semi-autos, not only ISP

[@BrandonSoto92010]

@@MakeMyDayPunk1992 Yeah but I’m say that the ISP was LITERALLY the first department to do, which started in 1967, and they adopted the Model 39 actually.
