They did what the politicians always tell the public they're meant for, instead of what they're really hoping for. For some reason that amuses me.

Of course. He wanted to make money off of it. Why else do you think he pushed to have them installed in the first place?

Jul 08, 2011 13:26:12 Yep. And that's why they shouldn't be installed anywhere. It's about fixing politician's f-ups under the guise of improved safety. I don't wanna play that game.

Exactly...
Fortunately they are being taen down. Unfortunately they are going to have to break the contract. The city will probably have to pay the company for breaking the contract, so there goes some more money.

I think their pay ought to be directly proportional to public opinion of their performance...
