how many crimes will it take until we get cameras on every corner and monitored 24/7

i had two of my car’s wheel stolen one night in 2005 on e new york avenue… when you first see your car it is nauseating… i was lucky that someone i knew, with a tow truck, sent someone to put wheels on my car… the rims were $350 each plus the cost of a new tire…. $1000 for the experience… the garage was good to me and charged me only $350, as i remember.
Be ready for more of it!

Cameras don’t stop crime, a .38 will.

#1 Most likely not to occur given the new Mayor’s position of police activism.
Another tax to pay for living in Crown Heights!!!

Cameras on every order? That just sounds inappropriate. What if someone wants to scratch their butt?
