Because they destroyed utility property!!
Read the FERC and NERC rules!!
assuming, like some posters have written, that it is Utility Property and wasn’t put up there by some agency or another.
I guess we will have to see how it plays out. Will they be charged for it, or will that one kinda of disappear....
I can’t help but suspect the second. It comes down to why make the camera hidden and why only cameras pointing in the direction of the protestors?
You still haven’t answered either of those.
How many people, and by that, I mean what percentage of the population is even aware those rules exist? I'd bet it is well below 1%, especially if you aren't either a federal regulator or work in the power industry.
For that matter, how many even know what FERC and NERC are?
People are ever suspicious of things they know nothing about, especially if the appearance of those things is badly timed to coincide with other goings on.
Question: are those thermal cameras or infrared?
