Not unexpected I guess.

A retarded gunshop owner in NE GA did this recently. He tried to make it a story about taking it down, too late dumbass.

Thankfully I have my own range. And the club I belong to wants none of that nonsense.

The old owner there seemed nice enough though I never bought much from him, evidently this guy bought it in 2020. I changed the link to a story not behind a paywall.

I hate to go to the big range near me anymore, not because if the owners/employees , but because every time I go I get”swept” by 3 or 4 muzzles pointed at me because the shooters are stupid or too inexperienced to follow proper gun handling.

That range in the woods that he shows in a video is the range at the Ocala National Forest.  Those cameras spontaneously combusted.

Every swinging dick at the range, including you, is in charge of safety. Call them out or stop bitching.

Well…hey…alright…

Another Flock camera / ALPR thread I can post in.

I started commenting about this in the spring of 2023 when I got a copy of my FBI/DOJ NCIC file.

I started flipping through it.

This was when I used to live in Illinois.

So one whole page said something like “ACTIVE IL FOID CARD ON FILE”.

Then the next whole page said “NO ACTIVE IL CCW PERMIT ON FILE”.

Then I got to a page that had dates and times and locations listed on it.

There were 4 separate dates listed there for calendar year 2022.

They were inquiries or pings to my NCIC.

I was thinking “Dang!  I know I have a lead foot, but I know I didn’t get pulled over four times for speeding in 2022.”  So I was left scratching my head.

Two of the dates I do remember as legit encounters with LE.

The other two still had me stumped.

So I went through my work schedule.  IIRC, it was when I took vacation in January 2022.

Then it hit me, “A-ha!””  It was when I went to the World Shooting Complex in Sparta, IL to shoot trap.

The other one….well…I started surfing through the pics on my phone.

It was when I went to the Town and Country Gun Club in Maryville, IL.

I just happened to take a pic of the indoor range they were building before I exited the gun club property.

In the spring of 2023, I went looking for these ALPR’s.  Sure enough there were two in Fayetteville, IL on Route 4 before getting to the World Shooting Complex.

Then just a few doors down from the gun club entrance, there was some wheeled contraption parked next to the garage door.  It had a solar panel on it.

Ssssoooo….in my mind, this is the interesting part….

Because there were no other pings to my NCIC file from any other ALPR’s, anywhere, in my file for 2022.

If you have an Illinois FOID card, then these ALPR’s must already know that.  And their database has already tied your license plate number to your FOID.  Once you are inside whatever geofence “they” put around a range, they ping your NCIC file.

What I did notice on those two pings is that a “terminal identifier” or “terminal login” was missing.

So somebody else at the federal level has some code written that mines the NCIC for pings missing that “terminal identifier” or “terminal login”, and if you have one of those “terminal-less” pings , this code lumps your name into the Bitter Gun Clinger pile.

Same shit locally here in WI.

https://www.wisn.com/article/cudahy-gun-range-removes-flock-cameras-after-viral-video-raises-privacy-concerns/73384028

I'm guessing that Flock offered the cameras for cheap or free vs the store spending $$ to install a private system. "Always look behind the curtain."

I just put in a records request with the police chief for all my FLOCK info, camera locations, regulations surrounding their use, etc. Will report how extensive the info is when I get it.

@WeimeranerDad

I've seen your posts on this subject, and I don't doubt that there is some fuckery afoot, if not just IL but possibly everywhere. The question in my mind is: "Who or what agency is aggregating the information obtained and why are they doing it?". As in "What's the point of it?". And it belies the BS of "We only use it for investigating crimes." It's surveilance, pure and simple.

"It's not paranoia if they really are after you."

Noir sucks.

I’ve got no problem with security cameras at ranges, in fact I recommend them, just not flock cameras.

If you don't think that automated systems lookup people based on license plates, credit card use, etc. to see if they have warrants, the car is stolen, etc. you're willfully ignorant.  

There is no legal requirement to have justification for surveillance like this - you are in public and "have no expectation of privacy".  

It's all well intentioned and does help prevent/solve crime, but the road to hell has been paved with good intentions for as long as humans have been around.
