Cameras which can’t catch the criminals

EDITOR, The Tribune

How good is your memory? When did the first CCTV camera go up in downtown? Did crime decrease from the petty pick-pocketing and selling of drugs? It still goes on today with cameras.

Certain areas south of the arch CCTV - has that stopped a single criminal act? How many prosecutions and importantly guilty verdicts were assisted by using photographic CCTV evidence?

Generally crime continues in the now traditional areas - the Police acknowledge that and confirm…. We know where they are but what happens? What are they doing about it?

So we are going to purchase 55 - yes FIFTY-FIVE drones - we have signed a ShooterSpotter system. My question is polling being driven by the Talk Shows and not scientifically? Is all this purchasing just to satisfy the Talk Show listeners?

Question - Can a drone fly over my private property? Can I shoot it down? Will these drones have the capability, to listen to electronic communication and take photographs? Is my privacy dead? Public wake up! 1984 cometh!
