They pointed guns at a 6-week-old baby over a single-digit license plate error. đ€
Camera flag, high-stakes tactical stop, guns drawn on an infant - then a casual "oops, our bad."
This isn't a glitch. This is the surveillance state weaponizing your neighbors to treat every citizen like a target until the machine decides you aren't one.
The system is working exactly as designed, and youâre next.
Did a bit of research on this yesterday.
This shootout happened right in front of a Flock camera.
There are 17 other flock-style cameras within a one mile radius of this event. The police have zero suspects, and have made zero arrests almost four days later. Some are owned by Motorola, some are owned by Flock Safety, and some are owned by Axon.
@Flock_Safety and like-minded systems are not about protecting citizens or enforcing the law. They are an attempt to nationalize the HOA system to increase non-tax related revenue from minor infractions in complete violation of every American's 4th Ammendment right.
Your local government doesn't seek to take criminals off of the street. It seeks more money from your wallet now that taxation has reached its natural cap, and the "ALPR" system is how they've elected to increase revenue from fines.
This will become more insidious when city governments start selling off that revenue to foreign nations for fast budget bumps, like when Chicago sold their parking meter revenue over 75 years to Abu Dhabi in 2008.
With a government run surveillance system this large, it should be impossible for crime like this to go unpunished for longer than 12 hours. Since we are not seeing that level of security, we should all believe instead that the system is not about security at all. City and state officials pushing ALPR cameras need to be removed from their office by any means nessecary.
đš They have Flock, we have SparrowMap
Meet SparrowMap. It's a DIY counter-surveillance tool that uses a webcam or old smartphone to detect, classify, and map government vehicles in real time.
They track the public.
Now the public is tracking them back.

Your community appreciates you more than you know, and throughout this challenge, youâve inspired and helped so many people along the way.
Take that same work ethic, discipline, and determination with you throughout life, and thereâs no doubt youâll be successful in whatever you pursue. Youâve proven that when you commit to something and stay consistent, great things can happen. âSuccess is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.â Keep pushing, keep inspiring, and rememberâyouâre capable of more than you realize. Congratulations, Simon!

Family, I recently received a heartfelt letter from Mrs. McAdams, whose husband, Mr. McAdams, had passed away. She shared that he followed the work of Raising Men & Women Lawn Care Service, believed deeply in our mission, and often spoke about the impact our kids are making. In his memory, their family and friends chose to support our organization so that his kindness and belief in serving others could continue living on.
This is a powerful lesson for every child taking part in The 50 Yard Challenge: You never know who is watching, who you are inspiring, or how deeply your acts of kindness may touch someoneâs life. A lawn that may seem like just another number toward your goal could give an elderly person hope, encourage a family going through a difficult time, or inspire someone you may never even meet.
Keep serving, keep showing kindness, and keep doing the right thingâeven when no one appears to be watching. The work you are doing matters, and its impact can reach much farther than you may ever realize. Mr. McAdamsâ support reminds us that a life of kindness leaves behind a legacy that continues to grow. May he rest in peace, and may his family know that his memory will continue making a differenceâone lawn and one child at a time.
