      Unfortunately, this has a habit of becoming a self-reinforcing need for authoritarian policing.

      “Flock camera destruction” becomes the rationale for more cameras and more cops and more draconian punishments. And this cycle continues so long as the public continues to send up corporate shills and industry hacks to fill the municipal offices.
