Becerra, Alexis <br /> From: CSO Orange <orangecountycso@gmail.com> <br /> Sent: Tuesday, February 3, 2026 1:19 PM <br /> To: eComment <br /> Subject: City Council 2/3 Item 15 <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana.Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br /> Good afternoon, <br /> My name is Abe, I'm a member of Community Service Organization Orange County. We are writing to the council to <br /> demand that the city manager not authorize the agreement with Axon Enterprise for the Drone as a First Responder <br /> System. <br /> In an article recently published by Ben Camacho on Inadvertent, it is reported that the drones being purchased with <br /> Santaneros'taxes were tested in Gaza by Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) in 2023, committing several atrocities and initiating <br /> a new genocide against the Palestinians.To sign this agreement would be an approval of and explicit support for the <br /> horrific violations of human rights that continue to this day. <br /> Compounded with the Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPRs) currently in use by Santa Ana PD, this further increases <br /> surveillance of everyday people in Santa Ana, including protestors and bystanders to police operations. <br /> The proposed department policies regarding data privacy and security for these drones are meaningless to the public <br /> when our Police Oversight Commission faces uncertainty regarding its powers. Santaneros deserve a say in police <br /> matters, and it is NO on item 15! <br /> Community Service Organization. <br /> 1 <br />
