Less hostile when in context.

Let's refocus the police funds of shooting or falsely arresting POC, and instead ticketing and enforcing the loud car situation.
Who needs cops? I believe CA passed a bill to trial automatic enforcement of this issue last year. Detects excessive noise and photographs the license plates just like speed cameras.
I’m waiting to see where they will trial it. I haven’t heard anything recently.
Agreed. Take 90+% of their funding, and use it for preventative measures instead.
Habeas corpus makes those tickets unenforceable
Is that true? They still send them out.

This goes over a lot of the legal problems of these systems. You should always contest a camera ticket
This article says the opposite though.
I am not a lawyer and I have wondered about the constitutional questions of these. But according to this the courts have largely allowed them.
That part is incorrect. There have been many districts that have thrown them out or outlawed them entirely.

Now it seems like you are reaching. Ballot initiatives have nothing to do with whether they are constitutional or not.
Our po-po don't shoot POC (generally) but we still have loud cars.
