| On this day, I give thanks to an idea I once thought stupid. |
|
Cellphone cameras/videos!
It has made everything PUBLIC, "safer". I say they should put a forward looking camera on bluetooth earpieaces. With remote trigger. Silent, cheap, concealableish.
Make it happen.

| 2. Sorry, but I think such a proliferation of cameras is a detriment to our society |
|
Sure, they can be used to catch the actions of police, but they can also be used to embarrass and endanger people as well. I find them to be a double edged sword that we can do without.

| 4. I referred to mobile cameras. Fixed ones should have their lights punched out. |

| 7. Like that is going to happen anytime soon, |
|
Yet we, immature, unready humans, keep play with sharp pointy things, and doing massive amounts of damage.

when they are out in public doing their jobs? I know that a couple of states and several municipalities have these laws on the books.
