Elliott Davis has a strong opinion about Flock cameras.

In this clip, Elliott explains why he believes law enforcement should continue using license-plate-reader technology, particularly in areas experiencing high levels of crime. He argues that the technology can help investigators identify vehicles connected to crimes, while acknowledging that there need to be controls on how the cameras and information are used.

He also addresses the privacy concerns surrounding Flock cameras and the debate over how law enforcement should balance public safety with individual privacy.
