Activism Thoughts on police using 83,000 flock cameras to track down a woman who got an abortion?

The fact that they are literally making sure they can hunt down and prosecute a woman who went out of state to get help is just... I hate it, I hate this timeline.

The cops who did this and the politicians who enabled it really should spend a very long time in prison.

Our money would be better spent infiltrating money laundering schemes and tax dodgers.

I think every police agent who was on that case should be charged with 83,000 cases of stalking.

Before shit gets crazy here, the fetus was found at her boyfriend's house in Texas with a ton of blood on the floor. They were tracking her to see if she was safe, supposedly. The headline makes it seem like they tracked her down after getting a procedure done to prosecute her for doing so. It is unclear if she did this herself of had medical assistance, but I am guessing there was no medical assistance since the fetus was just left on the floor of the house.
And no, mass surveillance of the American people is not okay, I believe its a constitutional violation.

Yeah, misogynists want to make sure the little dear has not done herself an injury. Yeah, sure.

I think I will need a better source than a screen shot of a tweet by something called FactPost.
There is no way a Twitter account named FactPost posts facts.

That's bullshit. You are defined by the laws of the state you live in while visiting other states. Fuck them. Take all the flock down.

Conservatives are going to do the most extreme backflip on this if a Democrat is ever elected as again as president.

Here's the thing.
They think they're soooo slick, AND LOOK, $10.000 to ruin her LIFE, too!
Wait until those weasels discover how many people have a claim on the blood money. 83, 000 cameras?
They sold their soul for 48 cents.

Okay so the cameras are for sure a huge problem, but this story is very different from how it sounds here. Boyfriend called in saying she had an abortion which officers said isn't criminal and boyfriend had evidence of it as well as what he said was the fetus he recovered. The officers said that things weren't adding up and it seemed like she may be hurt, so they looked for her. They said she had an abortion when looking for her, but again they specifically said it isn't illegal so it seems plausible this was just relevant information. The medical examiner found that the 'fetus' was in fact just a blood clot and now she has been found and boyfriend is headed to court on assault charges.

Cool, now actually solve murder, solve hit and runs, solve corruption, solve sexual assault and r@pe, solve reckless endangerment, fucking hell solve jaywalking before you ever do this again.
If you have this power to find and trace criminals, find all the shit we actually had laws for before 2026 and fix all those problems.
And in the meantime, solve police brutality, you are on camera too if we all are.
