re: “Biggest blowout loss for each current college”

Georgia has the least worst blowout loss.
There should be an Asterisk beside that one. There were only 5 SEC schools that fielded teams in 1943, and a lot of players were fighting overseas. So, I wouldn't count that team as fully representing UGA.
Georgia's worst blowout loss would probably be their 0-60 loss to USC in 1931, followed by their 0-47 losses to both Vanderbilt and Sewanee in 1901 and then their 0-46 loss to Tennessee in 1936 and their 0-46 loss to Vanderbilt in 1912.

re: ICE uses Flock camera data to locate illegals for removal

Do you have any examples of it being used in a systemic way? Not just one idiot cop abusing it?
According to this, there are currently over 70 recorded cases across the country where officers have been put on leave, fired, arrested and some convicted for misuse of Flock camera (including stalking and harassment).

Interesting, but how applicable is this to programs today?
Max Starcevich was part of the last college football team to beat the defending NFL Champion. On September 1, 1937, the college all-star team beat the Green Bay Packers 6-0. The Packers had finished the 1936 season 10-1-1 and was named the NFL Champion.

1984 is a great book and there are absolutely lessons to be learned from it, but I'm more worried about how many people revere works of fiction in an almost biblical manner than I am a FLOCK camera being used by President AOC to hunt me down for driving a car with an internal combustion engine. Every single example you gave was from a work of fiction
Ok...here's some non-fiction. A guy who was complaining about the local police department at town council meetings getting his license plate searched by the same police officer 63 times, not because he was suspected of committing a crime...but because he was annoyed by him speaking up against them.
Man discovers how many times cops scanned his license plate
It popped up on my feed yesterday and was pretty eye-opening.

It's been used for everything you can imagine so far. By both administrations. Even if the good guys are using it, I don't want it used by anyone. Should be 1 hundo illegal.

What is the specific gripe with FLOCK cameras? What about them specifically does a seemingly overwhelming majority of the board (and society more broadly) find a problem with?
Not trying to be a smartass, but have you read 1984? This is how something like "Big Brother" would get a foothold.

I'm not pro-Flock necessarily, it just seems like people are worried about something that is already happening anyway. Just this week somewhere pretty local to me an attempted rapist was caught within like an hour and I believe it was largely thanks to Flock. If its being used to remove illegals, that's awesome. But like anything what is used for good today can be used for evil tomorrow.

This guy had been complaining about the City Police Department in Town Council Meetings...the Police had searched specifically for his plates using flock cameras 63 times, not because he was suspected of committing a crime, but because they were annoyed by him.

20 years and 3 weeks as a fed, hit millionaire status as of the closing bell Friday. Pumped about reaching this goal, but $1M, even with my pension and Social Security isn't as good as I thought it would be even 10 years ago. I think to really be comfortable $2M is a better target. I guess I'll keep grinding for another 2-3 years, especially since I'm still in my 40s.
