@JeffAthwart @AmiriKing Should issues Javs. Im about 100% sure a Jav could stop a hellcat or a mustang.

@TheStraySaint I would love a localish rancher who sold sharks in their cattle. Unfortunately there isnt anything like that in SoCal.

@ja78519 @Koroken_ @ModeratelyR Thats what got me dismissed last time. I work in corporate investigations and partner with the DAs office to match our protocols with the legal requirements. As soon as I said that, I was asked politely to leave.

@HuLatimer @SubduedRadical @westsj60 @dandinohill Fat and lazy in the military is still better than 50% of the civilian population. 50% of base pay at 20 is reasonable and with the TSP changes thats even less already.

@ancap24 @KaceeRAllen It actually works far better at that level too.

@ShannonJean Until we curtail the use of ALPRs and mass surveillance, that just creates a perfect opportunity for CA copss to arrest you at the birder

FLOCK does not REDUCE crime and does NOT help police it’s all a lie ‼️The Atlanta data proves it . Flock's headquarters city, their flagship installation. The Connect Atlanta surveillance network, which includes Flock, grew from 3,300 integrated cameras in 2021 to over 28,000 by 2026.

https://t.co/ZS6rdhqUck

If Flock's claims were true, Atlanta's crime clearance rates should have skyrocketed.

They flatlined or dropped.

Clearance rate went from 53.4% in 2021 to 48.0% in 2025. A 5.4% drop.

• Motor Vehicle Theft: Clearance rate was 9.9% in 2021, dropped to a catastrophic 3.9% in 2024, and only bounced back to 10.2% in 2025 after the overall crime rate dropped nationwide.

• Human Trafficking: APD reported 34 cases since October 2020 and only cleared seven. The last clearance was in May 2024. Since then, 12 new cases were reported with zero clearances.

The single most surveilled city in America, using Flock's flagship product, saw no meaningful improvement in solving the very crimes Flock claims to be best at solving. The data proves their core sales pitch is a lie.
——

Now, look at Flock's own numbers. They claim their 2025 "Impact Census" shows that in their jurisdictions, "an estimated 20% of solved cases were assisted with Flock technology." This is the number they sell to city councils. It is a masterclass in statistical manipulation.⚠️🚨🚨👀👀

Here is the trick: They are not measuring Flock's impact on the overall crime problem. They are measuring Flock's impact on the already ‼️➡️solved cases. ⬅️🚨⚠️

It is a fundamentally dishonest framing.

Imagine a city has 100 crimes. Police solve 10 of them. That is a 10% clearance rate. If Flock's camera was used in 2 of those 10 solved cases, Flock can claim it "assisted" in 20% of the cleared cases. It sounds impressive. But in reality, Flock only helped solve 2% of the total crimes committed.
This is the shell game. 🚨🚨

They are taking credit for a slice of an already small pie. They are not showing they made the pie bigger. The Atlanta data proves the pie is not getting bigger. The clearance rates are stagnant. Flock is just taking a bigger slice of the credit for the same number of solved cases.🚨

Flock also claims they helped locate "more than 10,000 missing persons" and that "42% of customers report that Flock was involved in recovering half or more of the stolen vehicles."🚨🚨

This is another layer of deception.
First, "involved" is not "responsible for." An officer might run a plate through Flock as a routine step in a stolen car investigation where the car was already found by a witness, or a missing person was already found and their vehicle was identified. Flock's system gets a query, so they count it as an "involvement." It is a vanity metric designed for marketing, not a measure of causal impact.‼️🚨

Second, the stolen vehicle number is a self-reported survey from their customers. It is not audited data. It is a customer satisfaction poll. Of course, a police chief who just spent millions on Flock cameras is going to say they are effective. Their job depends on justifying the expenditure. This is not data. It is a testimonial.🚨🚨

THE CITIES WITH FLOCK VS. CITIES WITHOUT FLOCK: THE UNASKED QUESTION

1. Cherry-Picking Anecdotes: They will have a police chief from a small town give a speech about how Flock solved one major case. This is powerful propaganda, but it is not data. It ignores the hundreds of other cases that went unsolved and ignores the systemic failure shown in Atlanta's clearance rates.

@Bruwulf @Fire_Missionary I think WMDs are the line due to no possible legal use. That said, the knowledge of should not be as restricted.

@Erik78910 @WallStreetApes Having lived here for my whole life, I can assure you there are ICE agents at every back road bypass waiting for those people. I bypass them often when going to/from the range because cops+guns in car=bad. I still see em all around.

@ClarksonsFarm1 Run for office to represent farmers. You have a platform and, now, the experience of the pain the policies cost UK farmers.

@tanpukunokami Better than most first trys. That one can be put in a pressure cooker with everything but the beans to make a badass chili.
Also, wrap at the stall and it'll cook in its own juices and stay more moist.

@cf19buzzkillttv TBH, If you had to save 1 of the 4, At least Hillary could get shit done. Shes a 90s republican more or less.

@BlueCollarInvr @Motel_Honey My daughter stopped the first time I wasn't behind her when she did that. Knocked the wind out of herself for a second, then full speed ahead! Now she checks her landing and will even move pillows so she can dramatically fall in frustration.

@SteveScaliseGOP I did it. 1 for the house, 1 for the Senate, 1 for Trump. You all failed to deliver, continue to let the corruption go unpunished, and are keeping key issues hostage for the midterms. Do something or dissolve the party and quit wasting out time.

[San Diego County Libertarian Party @SDLibertarian]

Don't listen to the haters. Requiring ID to vote makes sense. Prop 39 also requires the government to provide that ID for without fees.

[San Diego County Libertarian Party @SDLibertarian]

Yes on Prop 39: Free state-issued voter ID cards, show ID in person (or last 4 digits by mail), and real citizenship verification.
No more excuses—honest elections for free people.

[San Diego County Libertarian Party @SDLibertarian]

Polling dips happen when opponents flood the airwaves.
Don’t buy the spin.
Prop 39 is simple:
• Free voter ID cards for every citizen
• Show ID in person or last 4 digits by mail
• Real citizenship verification
Honest elections protect liberty.
Yes on 39.
