In my small town they just so happen to be at the same intersection as all the Flock cameras. 🤔🤔🤔
Home Depot right after they said they weren’t using surveillance to track people or immigrants in their parking lots.
People have been going around and removing/destroying them around where Im at. Its funny, its causing a minor monetary issue for the city since they partner with them.
Did they really say that? There's 2 in front of my home depot as well
Oh wait you're banned
Perfect opportunity for someone to deploy some spray paint.
Painter's extension pole and a small 3-inch roller and a quart of black paint, will do the trick if the cameras are up high.
Paint the solar panel. Then the camera will die a day later and they are non the wiser. Probably takes them a while to figure out the solar panel is painted if you paint them in the same color as the panel.
Spray paint on a stick will probably give better coverage.
Destroy the cameras on your march. Two birds. One stone.

Be brave. Go anyway. Talk to the organizers. Let them know that the cameras might scare people away. Offer some valid, reasonable alternatives.
Lots of people will probably be filming and streaming on their phones anyway, so you're going to be filmed and recorded and posted publicly in all likelihood. Not that it's the same thing as the flock cams, but
Hey same here!
God thata such a really weird coincidence.
Right? What are the odds that flock cameras would be setup at busy intersections where people would also want to protest?
Since the No Kings protesters won't do anything to attract ICE so they can get a picture of you for face recognition, how else are they supposed to get some ID of you to purge you from the voter rolls?
Should be targeting the GOP, not Trump.
I mean yes but at this point Trumpism is basically it's own party. I mean in the midterms the single biggest issue among gop candidates was how much of a Trump supporter the candidate was. Plenty of people lost solely because the public didn't believe they would follow Trump off a cliff. It's bonkers.
It’s important that voters recognize how big of a problem the Republican Party is. It can’t be shrugged off by the next republican candidate as a Trump problem.
The Independent: "...from New York to California..."
Boston: "Am I a joke to you?"
Boston is going to be insane. The last one filled every bit of standing room across downtown. Most people weren't in earshot of the speakers because you couldn't get close enough.
huh, i remember the last one cause ICE was ripping people out of Brighton suburbs that same day
was kinda funny seeing the peaceful protest go on while the blackshirts were operating a couple blocks away unfazed
lol
bay. bee. trump doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo....
I'm predicting it will be smaller than the first two. I don't think the American public believes peaceful protest accomplishes anything anymore. And why should they? Recent history has shown peaceful protest amounts to a fart in the wind. Combine that with the No Kings protest not even having any solid goals or demands, and I just don't see how people can get excited for it.
The goal is in the title.
"Targeting Trump" is neither a goal or a demand.
"Targeting Trump" isn't the goal, "no kings" is the goal. More specifically, the goal is to prevent one person from having unrestrained power over the country. Is a protest going to prevent that? No, not directly. Protests will let the people in power know that millions of people see what they're doing and we all disapprove, and it will let other regular people and like minded politicians know that they're not alone in their concerns, which will give more people confidence to resist when they might otherwise not.
yeah, i’m not feeling that at all.
for sure there is a strangely growing online thing hoping for it. apparently.
