The Vermont Department of Motor Vehicles has been caught using facial recognition software — despite a state law preventing it.
Vermont state law, however, specifically states that “The Department of Motor Vehicles shall not implement any procedures or processes… that involve the use of biometric identifiers.”

DOES BERNIE SANDERS KNOW ABOUT THIS? I am outraged, I tell you outraged.
At least VT is easy on the gunz.
oops.
BULL $H!t !!!
>Just like the “All records of gun purchase background checks will be destroyed and not put in any database...”
They had no problem confirming the weapon I purchased 20 years to the day I had to use it to defend myself. The authorities thought it was too coincidental to have bought the weapon 20 years to the day and nearly the hour. TFB. Reality strikes.
Fate brings us together and may eliminate those that would harm us.
Did the authorities think it was a cooked up record like Obama’s pdf birf certificate?

I don’t really know WTF the democrat filth in the Magistrate and DA position were at the time. I do know after I was free they were fired. Eff them and anyone like them. I demand to be free and defend myself, just like THE LAW proved.
I do not deal well with liars, crooks or those out to harm innocents.
I bet someone gets fired. /s
Okay Buster, Mr. D.U. Hotshot! Listen up!
I win, you make the check out to Free Republic.
I lose, you make the check out to Jim Robinson.
Got it?
Yeah, yeah, okay! Hurry up and deal. I can't wait to kick your a**.
Time to do the deed FReepers!

Only because it’s enshrined in our constitution from a time when we were not ruled from Manhattan and Cambridge. It’s only that way until the big liberal brains can find a way out.
they'll just pay some third party to do it now
OK, so if Vermont DMV can't run the facial recognition software themselves, there's nothing stopping them from uploading the whole database of picture/name/address to the feds, and having THEM run facial recognition.
If the feds had every state upload face/name/address, they could look at people applying for federal welfare aid, and see if they have more than one ID in more than one location.
Many people believe that I from VT or that I live there. My parents lived there when they were young, and they retired there. I went to college there.
Anyway, Vermont is an odd place. While the “cities” are bastions of socialism, the rural areas are fascinating. I would not call it conservative. I would call it libertarian. Its probably the most libertarian place I’ve ever seen.
In the rural areas the life can be extreme. Winters are hard. There are more cows than people. And everyone knows everyone.
A few years ago, I wrecked my motorcycle in the woods. i walked out to the road and the first person driving by picked me up. I didn’t even stick my thumb out. They knew my parents. They drove me about 15 miles out of my way just because.
They will bring their tractors to come pull your truck out of a ditch. They will bring you food if you break your hip. They will agree to come over your house to help...even before they are sure they know who is on the telephone.
They love to hunt and they respect the land in a way that most conservatives would appreciate. My uncle always had deer meat on hand. Even a little out of season. They would eat his blueberries on his front lawn. He suggested the cops wouldn’t worry about him shooting a thief, stealing from him. Why not a pest deer?
The problem with Vermont is that there are too many people from NY, NJ,Mass and CT coming up there and trying to impose their crazy environmental laws. AND, if you are an out of state land owner, you get screwed with taxes that are easily 600% of what a native owns.
Their tax policies are driving the natives out.
But their gun laws are the best....

Easier solution: End the illegal Welfare State.
They’d NEVER use this at the voting booths, let alone in your scenario. Not for unsolved crimes or the like, it will be a bludgeon used on the lawful (EG: 2A ‘permits’)
