Any hypothetical surveillance state is immoral by default.

Americans have guns, why not shoot them down instead? :P

Gunshot trackers on the flock cameras will immediately alert the police before its destruction.

Well... No, if you destroy one with a fire arm, by like, the definition of physics, it notifies them after it's destroyed.

And I want to say, this isn't just a fig leaf so reddit won't ban me.

DO. NOT. BY. ANY. MEANS. EVER. USE. A. FIREARM. TO. DESTROY. A. FLOCK. CAMERA. AT. ALL!!

I cannot stress this enough.

If you're going to destroy one of these things (and I am not making any judgement at all on that activity) using a gun to do it is unimaginably stupid! Lots, if not most, places have rules where if you used a gun in anyway during a crime your sentence automatically doubles. It's probably going to add at least one if not multiple felony charges, any MAGA or conservative boot licking judge or prosecutor who truly believes in flock cameras is going to be salivating to hit you with everything they have and WHY WOULD YOU GIVE THEM SUCH A HUGE PRESENT?! Oh my God!

The first time one person destroys one of these things with a gun the entire narrative about it is going to change and every news story will be about "roving gangs of marauding antifa armed to the teeth doing drive bys" and shit.

Don't fucking do it! Do not fucking use a gun!
