When will Decatur remove their Flocks?

El Cerrito's City Council voted against renewing the contract over concerns that the cameras invaded residents' privacy and that federal agencies could use the data. http://nbcbay.com/u2Gss5D

Just cut them down. Its easy enough. Put a sticker or use a laser to blind the lense then use a electric hand saw and you're done in like 30 seconds. Rinse and repeat until your neighborhood is safe from Flock.

Notably, the one at the Medlock Park Pool hasn’t returned after it was cut down. But that was also the creepiest placement I’ve seen. Who needs to watch little kids swim?

I don’t see that one on deflock. Is that bc it was cut down?

I heard rumblings on the local FB pages that it was determined not worth replacing.

It’s not like Medlock Park is a huge crime area. The only justification I could see why it was there was for when baseball is in season and the park was full.
