I enjoy walking. Backpacking as a kid, then a Grunt in the Corps, now a former beat cop slowly succumbing to gravity...

"Without funding, it doesn't go anywhere."

It's been two years since CA voters overwhelmingly passed Prop 36 to ramp up penalties for repeat thieves and drug dealers.

Sacramento County Sheriff Jim Cooper criticized state leaders for not doing more for the will of the voters

Newsom's "First in the Nation" Fast Food Council Hasn't Met in 2 Years Despite Million Dollar Budget.

The 4 staffers funded by last year’s $1.1M budget are busy preparing for meetings that never happen.

@PsychToday None of these qualities get algorithmic bumps on social media

@CAgovernor Nearly two decade of supermajority rule but less than a year left of his term limit and an obvious national run, this pops up. I feel like the hard hats in the background were a last minute OSHA requirement for fallen promises

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@GavinNewsom I hope our next governor focuses on our state rather than a pipe dream of natioanl office

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@cremieuxrecueil Feels like I’m missing the last episode of M*A*S*H because there’s no tv guide anymore and also I forgot there’s a tv in that cabinet.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@GavinNewsom I’m old enough to remember Gavin as the mayor of San Francisco. Back when he vowed (several times) to fix homelessness. Then as Lt. gov spoke out against the bullet train boondoggle. Now as Gov he’s spouting off about national stuff. I think I know how this would play out.

@navyhato I’d flip the picture over and draw a map. I’ve found that maps are way more useful for geography lessons than sport photo ops.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@BadgedPatriot @Flock Flock and their CEO have made statements that brought the attention they’ve currently experiencing.

The “getting caught” depends on each agency’s auditing processes and they’re not all the same.

These (and attached tech) are in no way similar to traffic cams.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@GavinNewsom Because look what having a supermajority for the past decade+ has done for California! 🤪

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

I remember nonviolent protests that cost billions (to local small businesses) that council members and police chiefs marched among the ranks. Way way back in the forgotten memory of the early 2020’s

[Jason Bassler @JasonBassler1]

Police in North Carolina asked the public to identify two men who recently cut down a brand-new Flock camera.

Reports claim callers are trolling police by flooding phone lines with tips like "Batman and Robin" and "The Lone Ranger and Tonto." 😂😂

[Jason Bassler @JasonBassler1]

When Flock turns off replies, its Chief Information Security Officer is caught lying to a city council, and its CEO blocks questions from the public, the real question isn't why people distrust @Flock_Safety... it's why the company thinks it's earned the public's trust.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

If Garrett/Flock is confident in their position will they ever allow comments to their posts?

[Garrett Langley @glangley]

If Flock accuses me of a crime, will Flock also show up in court?

Someone asked me that recently.

Flock doesn't accuse a suspect. It provides objective data. Investigators use a myriad of evidence, from witness testimony to physical forensics.

In San Juan Bautista, a two-year-old was killed. His mother fought off the attacker.

The suspect fled, thinking he escaped. A @Flock_Safety LPR found his vehicle heading into neighboring Merced County, where law enforcement arrested him.

That evidence, specific, verifiable, one piece of a wider timeline, is exactly what will show up in court later this month.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

Then there are stats https://t.co/0kfrzNC1mk

[Flock @Flock_Safety]

"Crime in San Francisco is over with." A prolific SF criminal tells why Flock changed everything.

With license plate readers and drones positioned across the city following suspects in real time, the old playbook is dead.

When the risk of getting caught becomes too high, crime doesn't stay flat, it collapses.

See the full story.

[Erin Friday, Esq. @ErinFriday75490]

California Democrat @AsmDawnAddis doesn’t believe that crimes in which a child younger than 16 is sodomized, penetrated or engaged in oral sex with an adult - 21 or older - falls outside of the category of severe cases of sexual abuse. Nor do Senators Allen, Cervantes, or Umberg. They all agreed to @Scott_Wiener’s carve out amendments to AB2691 that allow sexual predators of children to be run for office and be elected.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@GavinNewsom I hope our next governor is much less divisive

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@GovPressOffice @CAgovernor I hope our next governor puts an end to ballot harvesting.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@avidseries My gut reaction is that imagine has been altered for the purposes of soliciting heavily polarized engagement.

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@BretWeinstein Bret, are you referring to the flood of ridiculous conversations initiated by photoshopped or ai generated images?

[Steven Keith @keith44beat]

@Flock_Safety @JOKAQARMY1 Flock is used to alert agencies after the incident has occurred. So, the violence has already happened. Audit policies agency to agency and are often preformed in house with no oversight. Typically an audit is of just a few “randomly selected” inquiries.
