Flock cameras are very controversial. You either love them or hate them.
And President Trump just said one thing about Flock cameras that will leave you speechless.
President Trump made clear on Sunday where he stands on Flock cameras.
He backs the cameras because it gives law enforcement a real edge in the fight against crime.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump said:
“I sort of like them because of that, because of law enforcement, but some people don’t. They think it’s an infringement, but I like them.”
The president likely believes that modern policing requires modern tools.
Cameras that track license plates and flag suspicious activity let officers respond faster and smarter.
Opponents frame the technology as an attack on freedom. Trump sees the opposite.
The president has never hidden his preference for order over chaos.
His comment on the plane fits a long pattern of supporting the men and women who keep the peace.
Trump’s position will not satisfy every privacy absolutist.
It will satisfy some of those who expect their government to prioritize catching criminals.
