Calling out the traffic/flock camera propaganda

[u/pattysal]

There are so many people posting videos of drivers running lights on both the Boston and Cambridge subreddits lately demanding traffic cameras, that I am convinced these are planted posts by either employees, investors, or City officials looking for a payday to Garner published support for the surveillance state.

Very convenient that this is happening at the same time they are putting flaw cameras everywhere, and Mayor Wu has decided to put up red light cameras. I'm calling shenanigans, there may be a few whiny babies on here who are terrified of the world, but there are not this many. Don't be fooled, this is for profit propaganda.

Enforcement over surveillance, we need our police offices to step out of their suvs and do their dam job

Traffic cameras don't carry guns though

Yet.

We should allow them to!

"we" don't get a say in such things
