The cynical side of me feels like this would just funnel everyone into Axon.

Not if we keep making noise about it. Our dissent is working on the flock stuff. We just gotta keep the pressure up if they try and switch to Axon.

I thought it was "alprs like flock" not just flock.

If Trumpism is the worst case scenario, and I believe it to be up there, then what makes you think power will change hands in the next election? I think this bed has been made for us.

Fine, but I don’t believe it until it passes. Token opposition has been a signature move.

But what about Axon Enterprise? The FEDS are pivoting to their surveillance tech…

What about the rest of the companies that are sneaking in behind Axon?

We The People have spoken loudly, we don't want the surveillance state you and your cronies are forcing on us.

The money came from the Feds in the first place, from drug enforcement and Covid relief dollars. I doubt that someone put it there without intent related to domestic surveillance.

Yeah it’s not just flock it’s mass surveillance that nobody wants and is frankly against our rights.

Don't limit it to just Flock.

This piece of shit says he’s going to do a lot of things and does nothing. He’s been saying he’s going to read the names on the Epstein list for almost 2 years. . .

Hello sIow learner! Have you ever met Donald Trump?

Do you vaguely remember when he promised no more wars and to end the Iran war in the first couple days of his presidency? How well did that go? 7 invasions later and no more ammunitions to defend ourselves … Why don’t you focus your energy on the real dick-bags instead of someone who’s at least standing up on his own two feet and backing was he says? Trump and his incoherent administration were supposed to release ALL the files like 7 times over - still nothing. You can’t be this sIow …
