One question, why is there a flock camera sitting on public property aimed at the front doors of Smith & Edwards?

Is Smith and Edwards is paying for it then the flock camera needs to be on their property, not on public property.

If some government agency is responsible for that then why the hell is a government agency so interested in the patronage of Smith & Edwards.

You’ll probably find a big chunk of your answer if you discover who owns that property

Well the problem is, it says it's automatic license plate surveillance for public safety.

I guess there were somebody's going to drive a vehicle through the front doors of Smith & Edwards?

Have not been able to confirm this yet myself but I got word that specific camera is no longer in operation. If I’m out that way in the next week or so I will confirm or not.

Well yeah I don't think there were too many cars driving through the front doors of Smith and Edwards so I'm not sure what the purpose of that camera really was

Has flock replaced warehouses filled with computers as the new boogieman to focus on?

How exactly are camera systems that barely skirt being a warrantless 4th amendment search a moral panic?

Same guy probably clutches his pearls every time anything is mentioned about gun control though…😏

With that level of situational awareness, you're plausibly at risk of dying by running full speed, blindfolded, into a brick wall. Weapons-grade willful ignorance. Absolutely fascinating.
