HOW ABOUT PROTECTING US CONSTITUTION RIGHTS IN ANCHORAGE FOR ONCE.
Them?
They love their fascistic flags do they not?
We are by our government who is out to control us. We no longer have any privacy or control as the government can see and do what they want with the patriot act we could just disappear. The government needs to be rained in and they need to be spied on. They are the ones that are doing things wrong and against the law.
San Franchorage
Progocracy in action.
We have lost our capitalistic, confederate republic form of government in Anchorage again. They are changing our form of government to mob rule instead. We need our representative form of government; it is veering toward tyranny. Tyranny is joyful for the ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? but nobody else. ? ⚓ grate again!
As I understand it, this AO would protect privacy, if that is the case it should be fully supported by MRAK anonymous trolls
No they do not want facial recognition, because they don’t want their voter base ie MOA union public servants caught slacking on the job. What it boils down to. If the property tax payers knew how badly they were being fleeced, apd would have to block the assembly meetings.
The assembly has made it very clear that they don’t care a bit about public opinion unless it supports their own agenda. They sit there playing video games until the clock runs out, then cast their pre-coordinated votes. Your time would be better spent looking for a home outside of the municipality.
Ban facial recognition? I guess a broken clock is still right twice a day!
Why is the government promoting sin and sexual perversion? Is America an atheist communist country now?
George: As an atheist, I resent the suggestion that sin and sexual perversion are exclusive traits of atheists. If you are looking for evidence of sexual perversion (please feel free to offer your definition), look no further than the Catholic church.
Why do adults, if they truly are, need flags to espouse a thesis which is contrary to conducting productive business for the citizens of Anchorage? If assembly members take the time to ‘twiddle away’ with a personal ‘coif’ then pay should, rightfully, be recovered from all assembly members. Perhaps continuity will provide justifiable results.
Assembly freaks flying their freak flags shows you who they are loyal to, and its not WE THE PEOPLE.
They have a queer agenda to take down faith, family, individualism and replace it with trans wokeness, aka fake unity that then force conformity of language and dress. They wanr our kids and they do it one assembly ordinance at a time.
These flags show us who they are, have you noticed how these less than 1 percenters have a majority in representation? Call us names if we call them out.
I am not a homophobe i am a woman who refuses to use your PREFERRED pronouns, matter if fact, opposite. Trans woman, you are a MAN. Trans man, you are a WOMAN. accelt science before passing your queer rules on us, you creeps. What did someone do to destroy your childhood so bad you want the worlds children to sudder MORE?
Creeps, lose any flag that does not represent our city, state, or nation.
Freaks, fly your freak flag and do your freaky business in oregon and get the hell outta my town.
Are they banning AI facial recognition from everywhere in town or just at the gov level?
Will stores still be able to use it to build cases against shoplifters?
Or is this a ‘pro-shoplifter’ bill?
