# ‘Get the Flock out of here': Florida man goes off on city council over AI surveillance
# NBC10 Boston — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uHSSXEuud58

All right, guys. I'm back.
Uh just so you all know, I am a
right-wing MAGA Republican voter. I
voted for Trump three times, and I'd
definitely vote for him for a fourth
time if I could.
I'm telling y'all this so y'all grasp
how this issue spans across this
political spectrum. If you land on the
wrong side of this issue, it has
unseated numerous Republican incumbents
from the Keys to North Dakota. So,
politicians better start paying
attention. Nations rise and fall when
the common people stop fighting amongst
themselves and come together. So, I'm
just going to repeat pretty much what I
said to the B BCC last night.
I am disappointed and ashamed. I'm
ashamed that fellow conservatives would
usher in China-esque Big Brother
surveillance into our community. I don't
think a single one of your voters have
ever looked at something China was doing
and said, "Hey, we should do that, too."
Our grandfathers surely didn't get
shredded by German machine guns and had
their skin peeled off in Japanese POW
camps so that bureaucratic goblins in
their own government would come along
and install AI surveillance systems in
their communities. I'm disappointed this
was done with our tax dollars. I'm very
disappointed that our conservative
sheriff, or in this case police chief,
supports these systems as well.
Conservatives are supposed to be
patriots. We are the stewards of small,
efficient government. We should not be
the ones installing the big government
AI surveillance networks and building
target packages on the citizenry by
fingerprinting their car. Kim Jong Un
called and wants his ideas back, guys.
This is ridiculous. It's like I'm in the
page master and the book we jumped into
is 1984. If I took a time machine back
to 1776 and tried to explain Flocka
George Washington or John Adams, they
would probably die of shame right there
on the spot. Forget nuclear energy. You
could power power the data centers with
the amount of spinning our founding
fathers are doing in their graves right
now. And we're supposed to celebrate 250
years of freedom? Absolutely shameful.
I'm an AI surveillance apparatus goes
against the very essence of freedom and
the core values of our country. It's not
right, it's not conservative, and it
sure as hell ain't American. I don't
care how many suspects law enforcement
claims they apprehend using it. You
can't tell me Flock won't be abused
because it's already been abused. Raise
your hand if you like to sit in jail for
a weekend because a computer program has
identified you.
Yeah, I wouldn't either.
Those who would give up essential
liberty to purchase a little temporary
safety deserve neither liberty nor
safety. Benjamin Franklin said that I
believe. We didn't vote for this and we
sure as hell don't want it. So, do us a
favor and get it the Flock out of here.
Thank you.
All right.
