Bagging Flock

Upstate County acts on surveillance concerns

Posted

Oconee County Council Member Matthew Dunham posted: “County Administrator Stewart Jones (former Laurens County Council member and State Representative from Laurens County) and I started bagging Flock cameras today (Sept. 16). Last night, Oconee County Council drew a line and showed that local government is the first line of defense for individual liberty. To the other 45 county councils across South Carolina: You took the same oath to defend the Constitution that we did. Don’t wait on the General Assembly. Don’t wait on a court to tell you that tracking the movements of your citizens without individualized suspicion crosses the line. You have the same authority Oconee County is exercising. Defend Liberty where you are.”
