A Good Idea

The city of Fredericton is installing video surveillance cameras in the downtown core. I think this is an excellent idea. I think it might deter people and if not it should help with catching and charging them. I don't see it as an invasion of privacy. If you're out on a public street, you have no privacy. And if you're not prone to doing illegal things I don't see why you would care if you're on camera or not. So much of the time we're on camera and don't even realise it. In the UK video surveillance is everywhere and it's helped with crime and terrorism. If bad things are happening to good people in Fredericton's downtown, I say do whatever it takes to clean up the trouble before it gets outta hand.
