good read, big brother sent local thugs after a car reporter
“Are you armed?!” the police officer screamed. “Get out of the car!”

I'm not a proponent of flock cameras or AI stuff, but it's here and America needs to be on top of it.

When liberals protest against things, it usually is bad for everyone.

The ones protesting are using their phones like they are untraceable.\

1 out of a thousand times this might happen compared to hundreds of crimes prevented out of a thousand

If you are not breaking the law or driving drunk or whatever, you probably should not worry about these cameras

Sure, this story sucks but the car was NOT his.. he was "test driving it for several days" - sorry but that kind of sounds odd to me as a human

Do I agree with these cameras all over the place? No, but since I don't break the law or drink and drive then oh well

How many crimes have been solved from Ring Door Cameras? It's kind of the same concept in my opinion

I can't tell who in this thread is high, drunk, or being sincere.

But the people that stole $30k worth of Ford taillights ($9k per) out of my gated parking garage just took the plates off of another Buick 10 miles way. Nearly useless, and I get scanned 6x a day just going to the gym 4 miles down I-10.

Good for businesses to get badly damaged and looted by lunatics.

Ok then I'm a fricking fool.. I'm not sacrificing shite because I don't go out stealing and killing and driving drunk all over the place

So when I walk my dog around the neighborhood, what should I do when I come across a house that has a door bell camera? Get on my knees and sacrifice myself in front of it?

very narrow minded you are. You are fine with flock cameras identifying every driver, every passenger, tracking every movement, because it may stop some crime. Just, install a complete monitoring system throughout the country so the goverment can spy on our every move.

and your cool with that??

You are a fool

This is what drives me crazy about all these "registration laws". Whether it's guns, cars, or whatever, the only people who get penalized are the people who abide by the laws. Criminals don't follow this shite, and never have. They steal the guns or the plates and are untraceable.

Liberals just recently protested against killing algae in our national reflecting pool. You really need to unfrick yourself.

Pray tell how these cameras PREVENT a single crime.... your words, not mine.

At best they *could* catch a crime in progress, but at the expense of everyone else who done nothing.

Many of these suspected stolen vehicle stops go sideways because cops have invented 'felony stop protocols' and feel cheated if they don't get to terrorize citizens.

This is a strange remark. It's a profession. Surely you've heard of Motortrend? Car & Driver? Etc?
