Invasion of what? I understand in a private workplace, but when your job is to protect and serve the public, your actions should be a matter of public record. Additionally, I frame it as something that benefits good officers.. I simply can't think of a valid reason not to have cameras.

At a minimum, lights on, camera active.. That might resolve your privacy concern, but it's a public duty and public job. We're owed transparency.

A car can be unlawfully impounded. ;-)
Did the lady impound their car?
I don't think so. :headscratch
Your comment has me :headscratch .
That was kind of off the wall. :shock:
The laws that forbid the carrying of arms... disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes.

I don't believe you. I have never seen a Maligator willingly sit still unless it was asleep. :biggrinjester:

Yup. Ya caught me. Her attention drifted after the main course of hotdogs. Of course, she is only 1/2 Maligator. The rest is 1/4 Malibee and 1/4 Malimess.

There are plenty of private workplaces that have 24x7 video surveillance in public areas. Maybe I'm old fashioned but I don't think it's unreasonable for the people paying the salaries to know what their employees are doing on the clock.
