Finally, A Balanced Take on Security Cameras

Okay, in this case, Fox News actually is providing a "fair and balanced" take on things. Apparently security camera neither put a complete stop to crime nor are completely useless privacy invasions. In known, high-crime areas, the deployment and use of surveillance systems can actually help fight crime. Maybe not all crime, but at least enough to make it worth doing. Obviously, privacy is important. I get that. But I think the way to get folks on board with privacy protection is not to make unfounded statements like "cameras have absolutely zero effect on crime." That's just absurd and patently false. Extreme statements like that will just keep people on opposite sides, not solving either the privacy problem OR the security problem.

On a lighter note, with the suggested increase of cameras in Lynwood, Paris Hilton's crime spree may finally come to a halt.
