  Here’s the compromise.

  You go shoot your fucking self, and we won’t do it for you

  How’s “no”? Does “no” work?

    Say it to a cop and find out?

    (Please, don’t.)

  Amazing how since the beginning of policing, officers have managed to do their work without these cameras. Maybe they should just do that for the safety part and flock should just stop existing as a company for the privacy part.

    “To Serve & Protect” is just a slogan, not a tenet. 🤷🏼‍♂️

  How’s this fie the comprise: we’ll only guillotine you, instead of you and your family

  People will stop tearing down cameras, and in exchange, flock will do it themselves. Sounds like a solid compromise to me.

  No kidding. Their proposed safety features to stop police stalking make the police accountable to themselves. Oh, and the police can shut off some of those safety features, and again, it’s up to the police to catch them.

  The world is one big kangaroo court and we gave all the children guns.

    Let’s be clear, the kids with guns we’re focused on (as a “country”) are the ones bringing them to school, and it’s the no-dick adult backbirths with guns who’re the salient problem here.

      That was not at all clear.

  I’d be down for a compromise

  However that’s probably not what Flock wants

  Might be off-topic, but back in my youth, the night before Halloween was Devil’s Night: when Detroit was lit by the flames of ill-conceived arson & related “pranks”. 🤷🏼‍♂️
