‘You Will Not Speak on #Flock Tonight’: County Commissioner Refuses to Let Residents Opposing Flock Speak at Meeting

A County Commissioner in #NorthCarolina refused to let dozens of residents speak opposing Flock #surveillance at a public meeting this week, instead forcing the group to designate one single spokesperson.

“How many people are here for public comment dealing with license plate readers AKA Flock?,” Michael Garrison, the chairman of the Madison County Board of Commissioners began the public meeting by saying. Nearly everyone in the audience’s hand went up. “Probably most everybody. Per our county policy, I’m going to respectfully ask that you guys take a few minutes to converse with each other, designate one person to speak … we’ll move forward with only one person, whoever that happens to be.”

“What? No. We all want to speak on this,” someone in the crowd said; others can be heard trying to object as well.
