Someone in my hometown was arrested for vandalizing them. The media chose to say "city owned security camera". It's amazing how they will rush to defend private enterprise.

Legacy local news is highly dependent on the police for content and access. No surprise.

More likely: the local news reporter doesn't know the difference, or didn't think there was a difference.

the alternative is to not punish vandalism? what are you even saying?

It's unfortunate they got caught. It is nice to be reminded that every community has people willing to fight for freedom though.
