We hear that cameras prevent crimes. Every bank and convenience store has a security camera system. Yet there are still willful violators who enter the property with the sole intent of committing a crime.
They commit the crime and while we have the recorded “evidence” to use to prosecute a suspect, should one ever be apprehended, it did nothing to “protect” against that crime.
Prosecution and locking UP criminals prevents recurrence of crime.
Such a clause would indicate sanity on the city's part. And everyone knows there ain't no sanity clause.
“City governments” and “stupid” are co-existent...
I feel sorry for the ones we know are there doing the “right” thing...Yet its hard to stick out when most of your compadres are dumber than a bag of hammers...
Houston city government is really a lost cause nowadays...
If I bothered anymore to address that body, and say what I really want to say and what I think of them, I’d be labeled a racist...
I wonder if the local sporting good store sells “red-light camera” tags...Hunting season begins around the 2nd of March here...;-)
