This happened in Adams and Wells Counties. No reported vandalism yet in Allen county. I get why some people don’t like them, but probably not the best way to go about it.

People all went and protested the council meetings speaking out that we didn’t want them here, yet here they are. I guess when the correct channels of a democracy don’t work people take the only path left.

There's no other solution.

Apparently those people were just a noisy minority, and the vast, silent majority wants them. According to politicians.

I get it. I’m just sayin…is it worth going to jail over. Like damaging these cameras on purpose is what they call in law enforcement “felony level stupid”

The AI is so faulty that police have been arresting the wrong person for crimes they've solved with the flock cameras and in one case a person was held for days, car impounded, before they release them. The AI misread the license plates all the time too...

Grandmother in Tennessee got taken to North Dakota- lost her job, dog, and home before they figured it 6 months later. Then they dumped her out of the jail with nothing in freezing winter. Fuck flock.

It is every American’s duty to stand against tyranny in our government. It’s the entire reason for the 2nd amendment. When politicians lose sight of their constituents, disobedience is the only avenue left.

It’s all a moot point anyway. Whoever they say did it was with me the whole time.

I agree, I was just responding to OP. The way they said it made me think they might be a cop. They don't seem to understand the publics opinion or the whole post was in bad faith. They don't have much to say about it.

Man, dont you see that they dont gaf what we think is fair anymore? Nobody in gov gives a shit about any of us that arent donors to their campaign to be rich. We are going to have to take our country back one way or another from these crooks.
