David B. - Society would be safer if we had security cameras in public places to catch potential criminals

#7 - Society would be safer if we had security cameras in public places to catch potential criminals...

I agreed with this topic but only if it is on public property because it would be unlawful to have it on a streetcorner and watching the inside of someones house, but it would be ok if it would be in a government owned property like parks and schools especially if it were to watch for criminal activity. This is what is occuring today but later there could be possibly a different government and there would be cameras everywhere, and it is the things like that which make me not agree with the security cameras because people need privacy sometimes and without that it would cause people to breakdown in stress knowing that they couldn't do many things. For instance if you were trying to write down some of your thoughts in your house and a camera sees that you are writing something that isn't allowed, that would be really annoying because sometimes people are angry and want to do certain things. Without the ability to do that a lot of people would be stressed out and angrier at the high power.
