Not a criminal.
I’m so glad this guy told me exactly what to avoid
Good thing I now know what to be aware of.
✋ Criminals
👉 Concerned Citizens
How do you know they’re criminals?
*Heroes not Criminals
I hate both short form and vertical videos, but in this case I’ll make an exception.
If this is what need to get youth to act. I all for it.
A grinder will cut through a steel pole like that so much faster than a recip.
He literally points out that the recip is quieter, and he’s got it chopped in seconds, so the fractions of such that a grinder’d offer are negligible. If anything, I’m curious what the comparative battery-life is between a reciprocating saw & angle grinder, but that’s even more pedantic, honestly. 🤷🏼♂️
A 3d printed 22LR pistol would be faster. Print a suppressor too.
A carbide saw blade is even faster. Just get a battery powered saw meant for them. They spin at a different speed from the wood cutting saws.
I thought the criminals are the ones putting those things up there?
Weird.
How heros are taking down private spy network cameras that cops use to stalk people
Aren’t the criminals the one’s putting up the cameras? The heroes are actually the ones taking them down.
Criminals ✋
Privacy enthusiasts ✅
Ohh, I thought the headline meant members of organized crime were concerned about the increased surveillance, so they were making a concerted effort to reduce the network coverage
Even smaller criminal orgs can seem heroic, momentarily, when acting against a larger, more pervasive and communal threat.☝🏼

The people taking down flock cameras are heroes not criminals.
The people taking them dawn are heroes and criminals. “Criminal” just means they’re not aligned with the law, not that they’re in some way immoral. In a country as corrupt as this, it’s a title to be worn proudly.
If you can’t taste the sarcasm in this video the tism is strong in you ❤️
I think its the funny way of saying how its done without condoning it publicly.
Much quieter
These things are a pain to use. Especially the cheap ones require more force than you’d expect and occasionally get stuck. They make a good clean cut but it’s so slow and awkward that if you were wanting to do vandalism they’re impractical relative to a reciprocating saw or better yet portable band saw.
I also wouldn’t underestimate the power of spray paint, even though it’s simple to fix it’s still expensive when the contract specifics all the maintenance must be done by flock themselves.
And slower. Great for plumbing, not so much a 3" aluminum post with 1/4" walls
But hey, I might be wrong. 30yrs in the trades, but I’ve never tried cutting down an aluminum post with a pipe cutter
Also if the method varies from person to person, or one person uses a unique method, it’s easier to get multiple vandalism charges to stick
Hey, totally unrelated, but how does one cut copper pipes mounted close to the wall?
Oh, I should clarify, “the trades” isn’t exclusively plumbing. I can sweat pipes and lay out a house but I’m no expert
That being said I always used a little stubby cutter for pipes close to walls
There’s other designs, including ratcheting ones that look so much easier than what I used
“Oscillating cutters” are good for close cuts in tight spaces.
Cool. I saw those at the store when buying drill bits. Didn’t know what they were. Thanks.
There’s a tool that attaches to your drill or impact driver. Kinda expensive, but when you NEED it, it’s worth every penny.
So throw money at it. Got it. ;) Thanks.
Its a big part of why plumbers cost money. Like the auto shop guys, a lot of money gets spent on tools that get used maybe once or twice a year, sometimes less. But you must own them to do the work.
It’s only aluminium, you could probably chew through it if you wanted
wet the post with gallium and put a piece of duct tape over it, i’ll fall over in an hour. no tools
Where would get Gallium? I saw a youtubr video of some dude (mark something, I think) and he did this to aluminium cans. Always wanted to try that.
Would a straight cut be easier to add a union joint to and thus make the cost of repair slightly lower?
I guess it would depend on priorities
Nah, they wouldn’t bother repairing the tube regardless of how it’s cut. If they did and the repair broke, hitting someone, they’d have to take the liability. For a company with their funding, a length of ally tube and the cost to dig it into the ground is fuck all.
edit to add: but multiplied by hundreds of them being cut down, it’s not not fuck all. and it’s funny.
This is horrible! No one should definitely do this!
I glad the word is getting out, finally we can see for ourselves exactly how this crime is committed so we know what not to do in the future. Knowledge is power.
