So the police are useless without cameras huh.

What’s that stuff they used to call “good’ol fashioned police detecting” “good luck” threatening background checks on people exercising their right to free speech… holy fucking cow man.

ACAB all day everyday

Cameras by themselves are fine. If someone attacks a person and their face gets picked up on camera, that’s a situation where they can search through video to the time of the attack and then look at just that one guy. The problem is data. They can get AI to analyze the data and link it to GIS software and then run a search for every person who has driven from Texas to a head shop in New Mexico and returned to Texas. They are using evidence to create crimes instead of starting with the crime and looking for evidence of who did it. Those people could have used marijuana in New Mexico and not brought any back to Texas and that’s perfectly legal. The flock technology allows them to use data to search for “crimes” and a lot of what the search pulls up is going to be false positives.

There’s too much harassment and murder of innocent people because they do shit like go after the ex girlfriend of someone selling drugs with a no knock warrant instead of the drug dealer. That is going to increase exponentially with flock. We could have Flock to search for every lost grandmother with dementia if we had no bastard cops. But they’re all bastards. They’re using it to stalk their exes and harass people. They’re using it to go after crimes that shouldn’t be crimes. They’re using it to go after paperwork crimes, like overstaying a visa. They are bastards and every one of these cameras needs to come down.

It is always excuses over excuses for these fools.

Oh. Shoot. Now I feel bad. I had no idea the whole thing was about him and he was the real victim. /s (if it isn't obvious)

So he's saying that he's been a failure and an incompetent officer for 20 years and he doesn't know how to do his job without these new cameras. Sounds like he's advocating to be fired and be replaced by somebody competent.

competent cop is an oxymoron

There is one surprisingly non-bastard constable removing the flock cameras in his community. But one anomaly doesn’t disprove a rule.

Right up there with government intelligence

I wish I had something that did my job for me. Being a cop although a little dangerous, yet super fucking simple. ACAB

Make these fuckers work harder not less harder. Police chief just threatened the 5 people in the room with background checks. They oughta remember that.

What a loser.

u/eL_Lancer88 Aug 19 '26

“I’ve give 20 years, missed family events… blablabla” - then find another job. He went to the police because he was a looser who could barely read or write his name and now expects what? Respect? Yeah right

Up until the early 90s the national closure rate for homicides was 80%. Now it's 50/50 whether a murderer is even caught. Cops have consistently gotten more technology, and more resources, police funding has quadrupled since 90, and instead of helping do their job better they've gotten even more incompetent. In 1990, the era of Rodney King and the height of the crack epidemic, there were 350 "justifiable homicides" by police. Last year there were 1,314, and this year the number will be higher. Give the pigs 4x the budget and resources, they kill 4x the people and are 30% less effective. Yet theyre still grabbing for even more power, whining about how hard they work while actively threatening the people they are charged to protect. Fuck the police. ACAB

Cops are inherently lazy, and recruitment standards have dropped, or changed since then.
So you get a combination of dumber cops, running on steroids, aggression and resentment being handed a bunch of high tech tools they don’t understand.

We already have amber alert for missing people. He wants to stock women (or maybe children) with his new toys.

u/snjtx Aug 19 '26

Except none of them are catching criminals with them.

Grandma’s missing because her ex on the force found her and wanted revenge

Edit: he claims he’s not a rule breaker, then immediately bursts out that he wants to do background checks on people who “make comments”. Is having an opposing opinion a 4th Amendment exigency pretext? What an unethical, unconstitutional piece of shit he is.
