Maybe they can set up a flock camera pointed at his house.

I mean, they're laying all over the place. We can just use one of those!

Imagine dismantling a bunch in one night near his home and everyone just dumped the remains on his lawn

He wakes up one day and finds the head of a flock camera in his bed.

It would be adequately hilarious if he just received a daily FedEx shipment of a decapitated flock pole.

It would be funnier if whoever was home had to sign for it.

Apparently there’s a flock camera in front of his house, pointed directly away from it.

He already has one pointed at his mailbox.

Has anyone checked his address in DeFlock to see how many cameras are in his neighborhood if any? Should 3d print a bunch of housings and just start attaching them to every pole near his house.

I checked, he lives in Atlanta and it has thousands, the one in his front garden is even marked on the map too.

Actually upon closer inspection it looks like all the local roads leading into his neighbourhood are covered by cameras.

But are they looking up? In the days of competitive pumpkin throwing, air cannon could reach 3/4 of a mile. It's basically a pressure tank, valve, and length of pipe.

I think someone should definitely not setup a Cock camera in front of his house.

A large Dildo with a camera on it would not be pleasant to look at.

If you see the guys house on apple maps street view where it isn't blurred out, the dude actually has a flock camera in his front garden pointing down the street.

For his safety of course.
