That can go either way, depending on what city.
Yes.
One of my favorite studies was actually on dog ownership.
Like, does having a security dog or having a lot of dogs in a neighborhood reduce crime?
And it actually did.
And the reason was because people walk their dogs and they walk around and they get to know their neighbors and they might even get to know their police more, you know, if they have police on foot walking around the neighborhood and that makes everybody safer.
Like the only thing that we truly know
that lowers crime is community policing, is people trusting their police officers and saying, hey, there's a gang member that all of a sudden bought a gun.
I think something's going to go down.
I saw this.
They'll have that conversation with their police department and then they could actually
reduce crime and they can prevent victims from happening.
So it's not a matter of getting somebody's license plate and then arresting them down the road.
You don't have a victim in the first place.
And I feel in most of the communities that I've visited, and I'm literally on the road right now, visiting communities, talking to city council members and stuff like that.
In most of these communities, the public feels like the license plate readers specifically from flock are betraying
the relationship that they have with police.
They're actually violating that social contract where people expect privacy and they're not being given.
One thing that I, the thing that a lot of people also don't think about, one of my favorite analogies, and this is used by the ACLU often, is if you're driving somewhere and a cop pulls behind you at a stoplight,
you immediately change the way you behave.
