The country needs to find a “compromise” between privacy and safety, according to Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley.

“When people talk about just one of these, privacy or safety, they’re prioritizing the wrong thing, and what we have to prioritize as a country is compromise,” Langley said during a recent interview with Fox News. “How do we have our safety, and how do we balance privacy?”

We had a compromise. It's called the bill of rights. Goes like this:

  1. I'll say what I fucking want and associate with who I fucking please.
  2. I'll fucking shoot you if you get in the way.
  3. You stay rhe fuck out of my house.
  4. Did you fucking hear me? STAY OUT OF MY HOUSE. AND LEAVE MY SHIT ALONE.
  5. You're not the fucking boss of me. My crew will tell me when I'm out of line.
  6. I'm fucking going home when I please, no matter what you say I did.
  7. If you think I owe you, I don't unless my crew fucking says so.
  8. Don't fuck with me about shit that doesn't deserve it.
  9. Just because I didn't say it doesn't mean you shouldn't back the fuck off. Use your goddamn brain.
  10. You don't get to make up shit and say you're in charge of it. My house. My rules.
