I mean, if I was entirely wrong and couldn't refute anything you said, I guess I'd be posting random pics too.

Now Hollywood can make a new Cool Hand Luke movie. Luke cutting down Flock cameras instead of parking meters.

By advocating for the complete removal of Flock, you are also saying that you do not care when law enforcement caught that one child predator. Really sick logic here.

Ah, the irony of someone calling the same people that are in charge of this sophisticated "surveillance state",

You think those morons understand anything about how those cameras work? You really are dumber than I thought. They log into a web page, grab the footage, just so they don't have to do any actual police work.

And if you think they are "in charge of it", I am beginning to wonder how you manage licking those boots with your head so far up your own arse.

The Flock system has more open holes than your mother and that's saying a lot. Not only that, their VC funding has some questionable roots as well, you might want to research the company before you dawn the armor and white knight for a burgeoning Silicon Valley surveillance empire. Or not, I'm sure you're a useful idiot to someone.

He's just doing his best Barbara Walters impression. He'll be posting how Flock saved the little girl that fell down a well after being chased by a knife-wielding pedo.

They are perfecting the technology now for the flock system to intercept, stalk, and store your Iphone, ear buds, vehicle GPS, etc.

You have gone to the bar 5 days this week, or you have gone to Mary Lee's 5 days this week. Your new digital dollar is cut off so you will stay home and learn better habits.

I know multiple law enforcement operators that have used Flock to apprehend child predators, murderers, rapists, and other awful criminals. In some of these cases, Flock was the sole lead investigative component that lead to the apprehension.

The solution to the little abuse of Flock cameras by a few bad apples is more guardrails, audits, and consequences for the officers that do misuse it, not completely take it away to allow sex offenders to get away with their heinous crimes.


Just think how many more criminals could be caught if all of our rights were ignored. No more miranda, no more need for search warrants and let the beatings commence.

Surely all these crazy rights we enjoy areva hinderange to law enforcement

Whats funnier are the dip shits that think covering their faces will protect their identity

I'd seek a jury trial. Let 12 other Lafayette citizens decide my fate. I'd bet more are against the cameras than for them.
So you would prefer someone who broke the law go free even though there is video evidence of them committing a crime because you don’t like the source the evidence came from? That’s insane to me

They’re using them to track women trying to get abortions… the first guardrail should be repealing the bad laws they’re using them to try to enforce

These cameras will come in handy next time criminals are trying to go to the beach or play basketball at the park during the next lockdowns.

People that worry about flock cameras are a bunch of retards


People that ignore something that is a gateway to a very steep and slippery slope to more, are retarded.
You retards are claiming these cameras are helping catch rapists, murderers, etc. How many of those don't already have a rap sheet that should have them in prison for life? How many of those are single incidents? How about the judges and system do the job correctly the first time and we prevent the need for any unnecessary bullshite like this. How about we start building more prisons and lock up criminals for good.

Yeah I'm sure they will only use Flock for taking down pedophiles. They certainly won't retain everything and run it through AI for tracking suspects that say the wrong things on the internet at some point in the future.

These cameras are an unwarranted invasion of privacy. Since its a private company doing the surveillance, it allows law enforcement to access the data WITHOUT probable cause for a search warrant.

It's being abused by law enforcement. There is no reason for vehicle make and models, license plate readings, registration info, etc. of law abiding citizens that havent broke any laws, to be entered into a private database without probable cause. It's illegal surveillance.

I know most here hate him but John Oliver did a show on Flock cameras this past Sunday night. Very disturbing how much surveillance we are all under these days.

Sacrificing liberty for a little sense of security never ends well.

For every successful arrest of a criminal there will be plenty of cases of manufacturing evidence or abuse of the power given. The technology is moving faster than the laws and protections are.
