Link says he’s charged with petit larceny, which is a misdemeanor in USA. IDK where the destruction of property charges land.

He’s receiving donations for his defense from across the country.

    Hear Ye Hear Ye! Tekato has now proclaimed that electoral politics is the only acceptable pathway to change! All radical politics is wasted effort because this guy should have just run for office! Why didnt anyone ever think of that? We all must simply wait for the correct candidate to solve our problems for us!

        Each of your comments is explicitly discouraging direct action and minimizing the impact everyday people can have outside the approved range of electoral politics. There’s no strawmen here. I’ll admit to exaggeration though.

          So you genuinely think going around destroying flock cameras is the right thing to do? How many have you destroyed? It better not be zero

            Yes, we should never be for a thing we ourselves do not directly do. Presumably you are running for mayor or governor like you said this guy could do.

            Destroying the apparatus of the surveillance state is morally correct, yes. And nice try trying to get me to admit to a crime, fedboy.

            Im not the other commenter but not only do I think that destroying/removing the cameras is the right thing to do but I think it’s also the duty of the people.
