Theres a NLCS (?) game at Turner Field isn't it?

Yes. THree games beginning tonight.

We need to discourage terrorist behavior- viciously.

Sorry. I'm not buyin' it. West Peachtree and Baltimore is one (1) block from my office. I can see it from here. While that location provides an excellent view of downtown, the Georgia Dome, and the Convention Center, how many traffic studies have you seen where video cameras are taped to light poles? I'm suspicious ..... more than a little creeped out.

[Stand Watch Listen]

Way to GO, citizens!!! This is exactly what President Bush wants us to do. Keep a sharp eye out

Yes...and this FR forum acts as a national 'neighborhood watch' too.

President Bush asked us to be "citizens, not spectators" in his inaugural address. When he said that, I knew he was preaching to the choir when it came to Freepers!

[TheLurkerX]

Yep, they sent out a work crew of middle eastern men to tape digital video cameras to light poles. Sure. Let's do a road study with consumer electronics, duct tape, a plain civilian vehicle and a non diversified ethnic work crew. Uh-huh.

One more time: After 8 years of $lick the sheeple will buy anything.

Spin is right.

With the red-light-running scenerio placing cameras about, and the populace getting EXTREMELY upset at them, this is as good a story as any.

However, in Indianapolis, at East 10th Street and Mitthoffer, there are 4 cameras pointed at traffic: exactly into the front window of a vehicle sitting stopped at the light.

There have been NO cover stories floated, but my TFHT is that face recog software is being used there. (It's close to a fairly high crime area)

Glad you bumped this. It was posted before I signed up, I've never seen it.

You're welcome. There are quite a few similar items out there from early on- some have been filed under the key words "camera incidents," "isolated incidents" and "scouts," among other things. Unfortunately there were a lot that didn't get indexed but we try to find and bump them up from time to time.
