- Cops doing everything possible to emulate the gestapo. I honestly don't see any way to fix our justice system other than giving 95% of all employed officers the boot.by AngryData
- I asked my local sheriff about the Flock cameras that are located on my street.
He swore that they were only "ALPR" (Automatic License Plate Readers) and "definitely not Flock cameras".
I went and looked again, and they definitely are Flock cameras, so that's nice.
- I’ve been instantly suspicious of all the reports of counties “allowing their Flock contracts to expire”, which doesn’t imply either “removing ALPR cameras” or ceasing potential 4th Amendment violations, more broadly. I don’t think any one of the agencies or public officials making these promises deserves any benefit of the doubt. Americans should be demanding robust protections and transparency from those who have been endowed by our democratic consent to wield the power of the state.by nativeit
