Many crimes, including murders and kidnappings, have been solved using Flock cameras. They are a tool that law enforcement needs.

We already pay enough in taxes. The City needs to check it's priorities and pull funding from programs that truly are not conductive to the day to day lives of the general tax paying citizen. Focus on the core competencies, not liberal dream programs.

As long as the data is only used by police for a short time and then destroyed, that would be OK. I don't trust the private companies that collect the data to destroy the data like they claim. I don't want to be tracked everywhere I go. Columbia needs to fight crime a different way.
ReplyData shows that flock cameras do not prevent crimes and that the impact on solving crimes is minimal for the expense and invasion of privacy. Additionally, they breed lazy policing. Ditch the flock and hire more cops instead.
