Unfortunately we feel it is a necessary thing these days. We've come a long way from not locking our front door to having a fully fenced property, a watch dog, and security cameras. Gone are the good old days of real neighborhoods.

Obviously to 1) alert me if something is happening while I'm not there, 2) hopefully provide info to identify and possibly catch the criminals.

I do NOT, I did at one time but false alarms caused a lot of problems! The County started fining me for false alarms, it was not my fault, they should fine the alarm company not me! False alarms freak you out! You have drop everything rush home for nothing! It was like buying trouble!

I have never had one but I will not tell you my security measures. That would ruin all the fun.

There aren't enough law enforcement officers to police the dysfunction & endangerment of people running lights, & blocking the intersection

Anything that will help slow down the insane amount of speeding on the Parkway is a good thing.

Only if they are mobile so you can use them in problem area's until problem is solved not as permanent like above a stop light that is just Policing for Profit.

Speed is clearly a problem on the parkway and much of 97. I can't see how enforcing laws that protect public safety is too much government control.

Yes, put them up. The visitors and residents from the South and the North all think that they are a big fish in a small pond and drive like they do back where they came from. They drive like it is a video game and endanger everyone on the roads.

Sloppy driving, speeding and lack of traffic police to deture these actions to prevent accidents and possible injuries to those doing the right thing. It costs everyone in higher insurance rates in areas with more accidents.

We lived in Tucson, AZ. where they had these camera's & shortly taken out of service because the person driving the vehicle couldn't be without a doubt 100% identified. The plate # could be seen, but not the driver/owner. Cost Pima County residents millions of dollars. Waste of $. Fix the pot holes.

Absolutely NOT! That is like a privacy infringement, government over reach at best. Spying on citizens, imagine what that could start! So I say NO, NO and by the way(blank) NO!

It's not more "control" to enforce laws that already exist to protect public safety.

Well if people would drive at a safe speed, they wouldn't have to treat everyone like idiots.
