It's a trap, they're watching them.

I know it's not the 'correct' fight to have, but I think it's good to use the fact that anti-flock action is in the social media zeitgeist and keep supporting people; it is laying groundwork for civil disobedience we need.

What other options do we have?

Yes, it is truly tragic how flock cameras have perverted the goodwill and community stewardship of the police. /s

Unfortunately not, entrapment involves coercing a person to commit a crime they wouldn't have otherwise. Simply giving someone an opportunity to commit a crime isn't considered entrapment under the law.

No it's the same scenario as a prostitution sting, or a bait car for vehicle thefts. They provide the false situation but they aren't convincing anyone to do anything, they are still choosing to commit that crime on their own.

Even if whether these devices should even be legal in the first place is questionable. Legally, currently, they are private property being vandalized.

I don’t understand how the cops didn’t get shot at, but that’s just me.

No, entrapment is when a cop goes "Hey, wanna go vandalize Flock cameras with me? I'll give you ten bucks if you do. "

You can arrest them and charge them with a misdemeanor.

yesss

That's actually brilliant. Imagine just setting up the camera an inch from the other one and right in front of it, pointed at it.

When you eventually get questioned, say you have a secret contract with city council.

Heck just putting them up randomly and then claiming a secret contract would enrage Flock lmao.

Huh?
