It's more reasonable than the headline makes it sound. The commissioner pointed out that he's not in charge of the decision to use Flock cameras and told the group of people who wanted to express their opposition to him anyway to pick one representative who would do so.

I've been to meetings where people repeatedly express the same negative opinion of a policy to someone with no control over that policy and I guess that's what the commissioner wanted to avoid.

No, it's public forum and you get to say what you want regardless. You, as a citizen, shall not be silenced, no matter the topic.
