No.

Chicago doesn’t have a crime problem. They have strict gun control.

The cams would be declared racist. All perps would be youths or teens.

It won’t hurt. Putting 1/3 in Austin, 1/3 in Grand Crossing and 1/3 in Woodlawn would be the most productive use of them.
most of the crime occurs in a few neighborhoods.

There is no privacy on public streets.

Can you imagine the graft possibilities from a contract to supply 30,000 cameras? Aldermen are salivating at the prospect.

Depends on who they hire to watch the video coming from the cameras.

Indeed, if there is crime in prison, what makes us think 30,000 cameras in freedom will work?

Why not test market ARGUS over Chicago?

have they ever read the 4th Amendment? just asking . . .

and please no legalistic BS about being in public and not having an expectation of privacy (which is between human individuals on the street, the gov’t is a different beast altogether.)

30,000 more guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens would be more effective.

No. They’ll simply shoot em out or steal them for sale back to the city.
