Reply to comment by PeachesFromTulsa in Letter to Mayor Smiley regarding street safety by Zealousideal-Bus5806

Because we should be trying to have fewer cameras watching everything.

Smiley publicly was a proponent of the new plate reading cameras in neighborhoods "just in case" that were specifically put in through a roundabout deal with the police for less than the $5k that would require a legislative vote.

pro. a. governmental. go-around. to. implement. data. harvesting. cop. cams.

dude won't care about your letters. we voted him in after he was publicly anti representative oversight.

Not a fan of public surveillance but you are likely being surveilled more than you know, especially with the new plate readers implemented recently. If this technology is available and being used, I’d rather direct it towards people that are doing the most dangerous and idiotic things, like driving in a bike path. That and gunshot detection. If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em… right?

Nor me but I am so ready for traffic cams / robo tickets being issued every time some vacuous dick sails right through a four-way stop with a pedestrian halfway across in the crosswalk 😡

I walk my young high-energy dog a lot throughout the day and can't count the times we'd have been hit if I weren't hyper-vigilant
