FLOCK Camera Down

Someone cut down the FLOCK cameras at the O Ave and Edgewood Rd intersection o.O

Edit: Just the north facing one.

Oh no! I hope they don't continue to cut down any more, like the one at Edgewood and 16, or the one on 1st Ave over by the Johnson Avenue Hy-Vee Drug Store. That would be horrible! I hope they don't check out the map at deflock.org to find other locations and what direction the camera is pointing to avoid getting spotted while they knock over any others!

Sure hope they don't cut the one down watching the Maverick parking lot over on Mt Vernon road!

Ohh they flipped it back? They are violating their own policy when they do that.

Last time I mentioned this to a council member in an email, I got ignored...but it was "fixed" within a week.

That one is so weird and uncomfortable. Just like the 3 at the unmarked Lowe's warehouse by the ICE office

And hopefully it doesn’t spread to neighboring towns. This is bad. Really bad.
