Last Week’s Question
Do you have concerns about flock cameras and how they’re being used in Dutchess County?
“I personally think the bad outweighs the good with these cameras. They have been widely abused all over this country already and the amount of details that are gleaned and digitally “mapped” are exactly the kind of things that are and should be private and protected under the Constitution. No more cameras!”
— Barbara Lyman Reeves
“I have nothing to hide. I obey the laws … and if a child goes missing or there looking for that car and time is very important when it comes to a kidnapping.”
— Chasity Hotaling Fuggetta
“Get rid of all of them, I do not trust how the data is potentially handled”
— Doug McRoberts
“I wouldn’t want flock cameras in the best of times let alone in this era of billionaire fascists trying to dismantle our democracy. This is all part of a greater plan to track and control (arrest) anyone who challenges the unjust project 2025 system they have been building. As useful a tool as it may be to stop whatever crimes, make no mistake that that is not what its bigger purpose will be used for when what they say constitutes a crime is criticizing the government or being a non white immigrant etc. Flock cameras are an attack against our liberty and freedom.”
— Andres Vialpando
