Should Public Security Cameras Record?

Cheryl talks about how her family has used security cameras over the years. Now, as more are being placed by cities and states, she asks it they should record everything that moves in front of them.

My idea:

1. Public Video Cameras record but no TV screens.

2. Accessed only through court orders.

3. Accessed only when a crime occurs.

4. Rolls over every 12 months.

5. The City Operates and Maintains the Cameras.

If everyone was allowed to view security cameras then o.k. The problem with security cams by the Gov. is it's potential for abuse. Whats to stop them from surveillance on political activists. Your naive if you think the government doesn't think anyone who dissagrees with them a threat. Why doesnt' the FBI release the video cams taken after OklahomaCity, the security cams taken near the Pentagon on 9/11, etc. If you want a Stazi environment and total fascism this is Police state activity.

Unless your Breacking the law people have got nothing to fear from cctv, It's only people that break the speed limit that are bothered by the authoritys and the speed limit is there for a reason.

I Have OCD And I have A Big Fear Of cameras,i remember when i went to a store And i couldn't get what i wanted to get because a camera was guarding it.

There is a difference between cameras on personal property, and cameras watching and recording innocent people in public streets.

I don't mind cameras. I don't mind other people watching me on video, since other people can already see me on the street. When I come home from a night out I feel safer with cameras.
